One thing I have learned with respects to Candida. If you cheat just once while you are trying to rid it, it returns with a vengeance. While doing an anti Candida program you must not drink alchohol or eat sweets at all. Depending on how long you have had it and depending on the severity your program could last a few months. I am writing a modified "Rid Candida in 7 days" version based on my work with my aunt (will be a 2 week protocol). I should have it posted within a few days soon.

The wonderful thing about our tongue is that it shows the state of your digestion. As long is your tongue is coated, your digestion is compromised. This is the deciding factor as to when you can start to re-introduce "fun foods" back into your diet.

I also had extremely dry lips at some point and could not understand why. Perhaps you should try vitamin E supplements.

Fungals grow whereever you have toxins accumulation. If you have toxin accumulation in your toenail, chances are you have heavy metal toxication. It is very toxic and our body gets rid of it in our hair and nail, to get rid of it for good. [go back on the past pages of the forum and read about ph balance and metal toxicity]



You said:
I did however have a couple of drinks a few days prior to the fungal infection in my toe getting a little worse (no beer, just vodka & diet soft drink),

Candida causes plenty of food allergy . Now you know you should beware vodka and/or diet soft drink gave you the reaction.
To be on the safe side you should go for red wine - vodka and orange juice is all right for me, but some of it is so personal you have to keep watching your symptoms to find out what your personal allergies are.


HOW TO KILL CANDIDA


People are often confused with the cure to candida, thinking that you gotta kill the beast to bring health back.
We merely want to kill candida to ease the symptoms. As long as you only deal with the symptoms you are not curing yourself yet.

It is NORMAL to have Candida in our mouth and intestine. Its overgrowth is due to a ph imbalance that allows it to proliferate like hell.
Kill it, it will come back.
Change the ph, it will retrieve its balance.

How do you change ph? by getting rid of toxins. And how do you get rid of these? by cleansing your system, a clean system will balance itself naturally but our system is like a vacuum cleaner's bag that's full and needs to be changed: it does not clean much because it is too dirty.

you took Psyllium.
Psyllium will merely accelerate your digestion. Which is a good thing to use with food allergy , so as to avoid the risk of fermentation by taking it out quickly.


However, you have not started the cure yet. For that you will need Bentonite clay ( P & B Shakes) - always followed by the same amount of water.
this will take care of your intestine [the Bentonite clay adheres to the walls of your intestines and takes off the crust of accumulated toxins.] Try this first, once a day for two weeks.
You will also need to clean your kidneys: and you could do the 2 at once simply by drinking 10 glasses of water a day.

THen (after a good fast) you will be ready to cleanse your liver (see Hulda's Clarke protocol with oil and grapefruit) we can discuss it later on.
