Activated charcoal adsorbs much of the toxins that Candida produces that otherwise would be absorbed by the blood and carried throughout the body. These toxins produce pathological changes in tissues and organs and interfere with proper immune function. Candida toxins cause allergic reactions and are responsible for the debilitating symptoms of Candidiasis. It can also suppress the growth of intestinal-based yeasts and can alleviate the symptoms of yeast die-off so people can continue treatment and not suffer.
