How to eliminate Candida

Candidiasis is an overgrowth of Candida albicans, a yeast like fungus and member of the normal flora residing in the intestinal tract of humans. Candida albicans is a unicellular organism, normally kept in balance by optimal levels of beneficial gut bacteria but can become imbalanced in immune compromised individuals. In addition, dietary and lifestyle factors such as stress, prolonged antibiotic use, steroid treatments, hormonal intervention (HRT, IVF, contraceptive pill), alcohol, caffeine containing drinks (tea, coffee, cola) and a diet high in refined products (white flour & sugar) can all increase the risks of developing an overgrowth of this opportunistic pathogen. Initially the overgrowth causes intestinal infection, yet after translocation into the bloodstream it is responsible for serious systemic candidiasis. Candidiasis causes a wide range of debilitating symptoms including abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, gas, bloating, belching, indigestion, heartburn, recurrent vaginal yeast infections, nasal congestion, sinus problems, bad breath, skin rashes, allergies, chemical sensitivities, rectal itching, muscle aches, cold hands and feet, fatigue, depression, irritability, difficulty concentrating, headaches and dizziness.
Research now supports the clinical use of a combination of high strength enzymes together with the probiotic application of the non-pathogenic yeast, Saccharomyces boulardii to bring levels of Candida albicans back into an optimally healthy balance.

Step 1 - Targeting the Cell Wall with High Strength Enzymes


1.     Dietary & Lifestyle Applications
2.     Avoid sugar in all its forms as well as sweeteners.
3.     Reduce consumption of dairy foods.
4.     Avoid foods with a high mould content such as alcohol, cheese, dried fruit and nuts.
5.     Food allergies and intolerances can exacerbate the symptoms of candidiasis so consider bioresonance therapy.
6.     Increase fibre intake.
7.     Avoid antibiotics

Candida albicans is a complex unicellular organelle with research showing the cell wall to be essential to nearly every aspect of its biology and pathogenicity. The cell wall was traditionally considered an almost inert structure that simply supplied rigidity and protection. We now know that the cell wall acts as a permeability barrier and is the structure that maintains the characteristic shape of the fungus. Also, as the most external part of the cell, the wall mediates the initial physical interaction between the microorganism and the environment, including the host.

Research shows that the cell wall of the Candida albicans organelle is composed of:

30-60% Glucan (composed of cellulose and hemicellulose; essential for structural rigidity)
25%-50% Mannan (mannoprotein – strong immunogens that trigger and modulate the host immune response during candidiasis)
1%-2% Chitin (essential for structural rigidity)
2%-14% Lipid
5%-15% Protein

High Strength Enzymes Target the Complex Cell Wall Structure of Candida albicans organelle Novel and effective treatment of the Candida albicans organelle involves directly targeting the complex cell wall with a unique range of high strength enzymes to break down and digest the individual components of the cell wall. This is the first step to bringing levels of this organelle back into a healthy balance. Key enzymes include:

·         Cellulase
·         Hemicellulase
·         Protease
·         Amylase
·         Glucoamylase

Step 2 - Reducing Candida Adhesion and Inflammation with Saccharomyces boulardii

Saccharomyces boulardii is a non-pathogenic yeast which can be successfully used as a probiotic micro-organism against a number of enteric pathogens including Candida albicans. Saccharomyces boulardii cells have been shown to affect the virulence factors of Candida albicans, its hyphae formation, adhesion and biofilm development. In a recent study, carried out by Polish researchers and published in 2010 in the peer-reviewed journal PLoS ONE, results showed capric acid, secreted by Saccharomyces boulardii, to be the agent responsible for the inhibition of Candida albicans2. In consecutive studies published in 2009 and 2010 in FEMS Microbiology Letters, researchers found that S boulardii significantly inhibited Candida albicans adhesion to gut wall epithelial cells and reduced cytokine-mediated inflammatory host response. Using S boulardii to inhibit Candida albicans, reduce adhesion and also inflammation is an essential and highly effective second step in supporting restoration of a healthy balance. Restore a Healthy Balance of Candida albicans:

Step 1 – Target the Cell Wall with High Strength Enzymes
Step 2 - Reduce Candida albicans Adhesion & Inflammation with Saccharomyces boulardii

Suggested Course:
You will need to order the following kit


Step 1: Take Nutrispore and Candisolve together as instructed until capsules used up.
Nutrispore is the best anti-fungal we offer. It is especially used for removing Candida as it contains Capryllic Acid which kills the yeast. This can also be used alongside CandiSolve which will help to minimise die off reactions.
Step 2: Take Ultra Probioplex ND for 1 month
To follow up we recommend Ultra Probioplex ND Capsules/Powder which contains a total of 15 billion organisms (Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM and Bifidobacterium lactis BI-07).
Step 3: Take Probiotic Plus and Glutagenics for 1 month
Probiotic Plus which is not as strong and a good maintenance product as it is less expensive. In addition we also then advise Glutagenics which will help repair the gut.
