Re: Candida - Safe body wash / soap?

Are you able to get ahold of borax? A simple dilution of borax in water is very effective, with extra virgin coconut oil or almond oil to moisturize the skin after the wash will do. All three of those are powerfully anti-andidic.

The cold pressed ('extra virgin') coconut oil has lauric acid in it, which is anti-bacterial/anticandidic.

Almond oil, whether hot or cold pressed, is nutrient dense and I've also used it in the past when I had a rash in the tender areas:

If those are hard to get ahold of, buy apple cider vinegar, use it as a skin soak with a wet washcloth, and buy baby zinc oxide diaper rash cream. The zinc oxide burns like a angry female dog for the first 10-15 minutes if you've been itching. but trust me, it's a goooood burn. =u=!

Palmolive 'naturals' are soap bars made without sodium-laureth-sulfate, but they are best for everyday handwashing. If you've got a rash, be rash and brash. Tweet
