Hey Mandalaide
Just my two cents...if something is working for you, I would not cut it out because of magnesium stearate. I don't think it's ideal, but as you say, its everywhere, and in my experience good antifungals help us far more than than the stearate harms us. When people cut a lot of things out of their program suddenly, they often have relapses and the problem with candida is that it doesn't let you know immediately - the relapse will sneak up on you 2 weeks later when it's got a firm toe-hold again. My personal philosophy is hit it and hit it hard and never ever stop until it's gone. Still, if you're going to press ahead with this experiment I'd be interested to know the results. Also; pure encapsulations and thorne research produce most things without any binders or fillers (at a higher cost...but quality supplements)
