It sounds like your intestinal tract and immune system are in need of a shift. Clays can help to bind toxins and provide minerals, in some cases. I don't recommend taking colloidal silver on an ongoing basis. If you want to do testing for candida, do 2-3 tests, and use those results along with your signs and symptoms, plus health history, past use of antibiotics, etc to arrive at a btter diagnosis, than testing alone can provide. I don't recommend antifungal drugs, as these are toxic to the body and can create other problems. We are located in Los Angeles. I would start with the McCombs Plan and go from there.
