I've found, unfortunately, that "things" are so complex that it takes more than one substance to "cure" anything; maybe a series of such substances). I've always only tried one thing at a time. I always felt that it is not fair to complicate something that is supposed to work on its own. How else could I tell if something is worth taking. It finally got to the point that I had to mix therapies (iodine, Miracle-Mineral-Supplement , natural antifungals, and finally an antifungal pharmaceutical to finish the job).
