Yes! Chitin/Chitinase excellent question. I can't type long tonight, but you have a supporter over here in asking that question. What I've been able to dig up about chitin and chitinase has been only small, not-quite-there studies (that I found anyway), and I really wonder if there's some unlocked potential there.

Also, there was is a study (link is below this note) about magnesium causing candida growth, and calcium stopping that growth. That seems so under-publicized, and have any follow-ups been done to see if calcium prevents growth in candida in other circumstances too. Like, mixing calcium into petri dishes containing nutrients that candida lives on, without the excess magnesium in the below study - does the calcium slow candida growth in those circumstances too?

Calcium seems to be confusing, because elsewhere I've read that minerals in general can make biofilms worse (stronger)...maybe that meant biofilms of bad bacteria or something other than yeast. Wish I knew!
