Beer and alcohol is one of the worst offenders of candida and gut inflammation. Alcohol is one of the most irritating things you can eat if someone has gut inflammation. Just put alcohol on a burn and you'll get my point.
Beer alone is usually not the cause of candida. Antibiotics will cause candida much faster than beer. But once someone has candida beer will cause rapid inflammation. Too much beer in the long run can be hard on the liver and immune system will will cause other problems.
Beer and alcohol causes me faster inflammation than any other food. Even Refined sugar agrees with me much better than alcohol.
Syclovir product has the same concept of adding sugar and vinegar to their product to act as "bait" for the candida. I would rather use a high carb than alcohol for bait. The only problem is usually the bait attracts the free candida yeast, but might not address the deep entrenched candida fungus. It might not be a bad idea though to add a little simple carbs to some coconut oil to attract more candida. I could see it causing more die-off because the simple carbs attracts more candida?
I agree with him you definetly have to take off work for these kind of die-offs. If i only had a month or two to take off work i would be over this candida BS. I just cant work and effectively get rid of candida like i want to.
