How to Get Rid of Candida Naturally
A friend was sharing recently about her battles with candida through the years and she now swears by an herbal product for anyone wondering how to get rid of candida naturally. If you’ve struggled with Candida, “a yeast infection” as it is often called, you know that it is a fungal infection that isn’t easy to get out of your system. It can affect your skin, throat, mouth and genitals.
Some insist that drinking dairy kefir is the best option for how to get rid of candida naturally – it must be the probiotics (get dairy kefir cultures here — with instructions on how to make it, or just get some strong probiotics here). Others who have skin flare ups say that tea tree oil does the trick. You may want to try those ideas as well, but today I’ll share what Trish takes to wipe it out every time:
“It took me about 8 weeks to feel fantastic! This herbal remedy is a predator of candida. I follow the instructions on the bottle and take it with a little water. Sometimes it might come back after going dormant for a while, then I just take it again for a week; but my flare-ups have lessened over time.” (She insists that you also have to watch your sugar consumption, but if you struggle with candida, I’m sure you already knew that.) “These days I allow myself to have sugar once a week, maple syrup in small amounts is best because it’s a polysaccharide and breaks down slowly in your blood stream.”
Where to get this herbal remedy:
The real answer to wipe out candida forever, though…
