What The Heck Is A Candida Overgrowth? 

You might have heard of Candida in the context of a vaginal yeast infection but the Candida I am talking about is the one that changes from a yeast to a fungus within your intestinal tract and spreads like a wild fire. 

Everyone has this yeast called Candida living in harmony with other microbes within their intestines.  We have "good bacteria" that keep these Candida yeast in check.  In small populations Candida yeast isn't harmful but when allowed to overgrow into a condition called Candidiasis, they can become any where from annoying to debilitating.  

What Are The Symptoms?

Symptoms vary from person to person.  You may only have a couple or you may have them all. Here are just some of the typical symptoms of Candidiasis: intestinal gas, bloating, abdominal fullness, constipation, diarrhea, or both alternating, heartburn, acid reflux, gastritis, trouble sleeping, foggy brain, allergies, skin problems, hormonal imbalances, poor memory, poor concentration, fatigue and difficulty losing weight. 

Who Can Be Affected?

Candidiasis can seriously affect your health or the health of your spouse or children.  Yes, men, women, babies, toddlers, children and teenagers can all be infested with a Candida overgrowth known as Candidiasis.

Who Can Diagnose You and Your Family?

You can.  You must diagnose yourself because it is highly unlikely that your doctor will. 

Why?

Remember that your doctor is trained in surgery and medication, but he/she is not trained in nutritional approaches to health.

As far as I am aware, there are no scientific studies supporting the existence of Candidiasis, and there are no medical tests to confirm Candidiasis. 

Believe It Or Not

No matter what the medical establishment has to say, I know for a fact that Candidiasis does exist.  You or your family may be suffering needlessly right now because no one has told you about Candidiasis. 

You Decide

If you have Candidiasis and choose to ignore this information or discount it because it is not confirmed by your medical doctor, be forewarned; there is no exercise you can do, no diet that you can follow, no supplement that you can take that will restore you to normal health.  You will waste all your time, effort and money if you try.  If you have Candidiasis YOU MUST use a six pronged system for treating it.  Only then can you experience great health.

Do You Feel Energetic, Vibrant and Radiant?

If not, you may have Candidiasis.

 Total Score:_________

If you have a total of 4 or more symptoms consider Candida a possibility.

Step Two: Rate your energy level on a scale of 0 to 10.  Zero is shoot me I might as well be dead, and 10 is an achievable level of energy. 

Current energy __________

Fatigue rated at 7 or less, is the only symptom common to each person with Candidiasis.  If you score 8, 9 or 10 it is unlikely that your symptoms are related to Candidiasis. If you score an 8, 9, or 10 for part of the day and 7 and below for the rest of the day, then you likely have a low blood sugar problem.

If your energy goes up and down within a day, but doesn’t go any higher than a 7, you could have both low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) AND Candidiasis.

People with a Candida overgrowth really struggle with their energy and the ability to feel well.  Those that have Low Blood Sugar have swings of energy levels and generally only have periods of feeling unwell.

Step 3: Do the Candidiasis Home Test

First thing in the morning, before you put ANYTHING in your mouth, get a clear glass. Fill with filtered water and work up a bit of saliva, then spit it into the glass of water. Check the water every 15 minutes or so for up to one hour without touching the glass.  If you have Candidiasis, you will see strings (like legs) traveling down into the water from the saliva floating on the top, or “cloudy” saliva will sink to the bottom of the glass, or cloudy specks will seem to be suspended in the water. If there are no strings and the saliva is still floating after at least one hour, then you don’t likely have Candidiasis. 

It is common for people with Candidiasis to:

1.      Have a history of antibiotic, steroid or birth control use.

2.      Be sensitive to tobacco smoke, perfumes, insecticides, fabric shop odors and other chemicals. 

3.      Feel worse on damp, muggy days or in moldy places. 

4.      Have moderate, severe or persistent athlete’s foot, ring worm, jock itch or other chronic fungous infections of the skin or nails.

5.      Crave sugar, bread or alcoholic beverages.

6.      Get minimal results from taking nutritional supplements.

7.      Have a lot of health concerns that seem totally unrelated.

8.      Struggle to feel well.

9.      Not find a medical reason for their health concerns.

If you have 4 or more symptoms, with 7 or less energy, with a failed spit test then you likely have Candidiasis.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

Candida Yeast Is Tenacious.

It won't leave without a fight.  Many people have tried very restricted diets in hopes of choking off the Candida's food supply and killing it.  This might provide temporary relief but soon after this person returns to normal eating their health starts to take a downturn again.

Are You Sure It Is Gone?

If you have treated Candidiasis in the past you might think that you are now safe.  In my experience most people do not learn how to treat Candidiasis in a way that kills the overgrowth and keeps it from returning.  If you started experiencing new or old health problems months after your Anti-Candida program, it is very likely that you have Candidiasis again.

 Food Allergy Alert

As Candida multiplies it's tentacles latch onto your intestinal wall boring small holes in the lining which then allows small food particles into your bloodstream.  Those suffering with multiple food allergies, usually have developed those allergies because of an overgrowth of Candida. 

Beware

If you have a diagnosis for your health concern such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, acid reflux, depression, food allergies, etc that only means you have a name for your problem, but you still don’t know WHY you have the problem.  Beware; Candidiasis might be WHAT is causing your problems.

Do You Want Your Life Back?

The people that have been lucky enough to discover and successfully treat their Candida overgrowth with the 6 pronged anti-Candida program, now have their lives back. 

Here are just a few testimonials:

“My 24 yr. old daughter is starting week 4 tomorrow on the Candida cleanse. She can't remember the last time she felt this great. She is no longer having problems with insomnia.... no longer feeling depressed..... no longer having headaches..... the pain that she has had for years in her hip is gone... and she can now sleep on her side again.... she has also started working out again...... my going to your workshop has changed her life... and I don't think that there are words that can justly express my gratitude to you.”

"Despite taking hundreds of dollars worth of supplements every month for over 12 years, I was constantly under the weather -- nothing very serious but, far too often, I was down with something. It turns out that I have been battling a major Candida infestation for at least 15 years -- perhaps longer. It was the result of being on anti-biotics for an extended period of time trying to deal with a bacterial infection. Well, I have been treating myself for Candida for less than a month and I am now in the best health I have been in since December 1991.”

HOW TO ERADICATE CANDIDIASIS – AN OVERVIEW

Step 1. Starve the Candida

The only food that Candida can survive on is sugar.  Therefore, the most critical dietary factor is to abstain from all refined sugar, including honey, molasses, alcohol, cookies, cakes, candies, etc.  In the critical stages even natural sugars from fruit must be restricted. 

Do not assume you know what you can and cannot eat.  My program is MUCH more lenient than other programs but MUCH more effective.  It is very easy to follow and adhere to.

And you MUST adhere to the diet. This is not a typical weight loss diet where you can “cheat” and then get back on track the next day.  If you “cheat” on this diet, you will set yourself back by days or even weeks.

Step 2. Eradicate the Excess Candida

The best product for killing Candida is Candida Stop.  I have tried many different products and this is by far the most effective.

What is in the Candida Stop?

Ingredients per two caps:

Beta-carotene 6,000 IU

Pau D’Arco 200 mg

Grapefruit Seed Extract Concentrate 100 mg

Echinacea Angustifolia Root 750 mg

Caprylic Acid Calcium 180 mg

Caprylic Acid Magnesium 180 mg

Caprylic Acid Zinc 40 mg

Odorless Super Garlic 125 mg

Black Walnut Hulls 64 mg

Suma 100 mg

Selenium 50 mg

Oregano Extract Powder 80 mg

You will start with only one capsule twice a day and work your way up to 2 to 3 caps three times a day. 

Step 3. Replenish Your Natural Healthy Intestinal Bacteria

Most know that they after a course of antibiotics they need to replenish their good bacteria.  Sadly, most people waste their time and money because the majority of bacteria products do not contain the label claims, or worse, contain no viable bacteria at all, or they do not have the proper bacteria required for your intestinal tract.

If you have relied on yogurt for your friendly bacteria you likely will not have faired any better because when fruit is added to yogurt it destroys the bacteria. Also, there are 200 different kinds of acidophilus but only a few strains will provide the benefits you’re looking for yet yogurt labels rarely tell you exactly which strain of bacteria is in the product.

The three main kinds of beneficial bacteria are, in order of importance:

• Bifodobacterium
• Lactobacillus acidophilus
• Lactobacillus bulgaricus 

Are You Getting the Right Bacteria?

Though acidophilus is the beneficial bacterium most people are familiar with, bifidobacteria are the most significant microorganisms in the small and large intestine.   There are benefits to be had from acidophilus and bulgaricus, and they should be part of your beneficial bacteria supplement regime.  Yet the bifidobacteria are the most important of the beneficial bacteria.

So you need a bacteria supplement with large amounts of bifidobacteria, as well as lactobacillus acidophilus and lactobacillus bulgaricus. The bacteria need to be resistant to heat, to allow it to survive the journey through the stomach into the small intestine before being activated.  The best bacteria will be sealed in individual packets because exposure to air will kill the good bacteria. Bacteria sealed in capsules will also lose its potency due to the moisture from the capsules. 

There are hundreds of bacteria products and although I have not tried them all, I can say quite confidently that there is no better product on the market than HIT (Healthy Intestinal Tract).  My clients have confirmed over and over again that this product is the only one that has ever given them results.

HIT comes in a box which contains 30 sealed packets.  In each packet are two tablets.

Each two tablets contain 1 billion CFU

Bifodobacterium 40%

Lactobacillus acidophilus 40%

Lactobacillus bulgaricus 10%

Streptococcus Thermophilus 10%

You will need to take one packet twice a day on an empty stomach.

Step 4. Supply All Nutrients for Healing

The total health packs are designed to cover all aspects of health, thus the name total health pack.

Here are just a FEW of the nutrients found in the Total Health Packs and why they are perfect for the anti-Candida treatment.

• MSM (methyl-sulfonyl-methane) is wonderful for helping flush out the toxins created by the Candida (and more are created in the initial phase of the Candida cleanse known as the ‘die-off’).
• Alfalfa is the richest land source of trace minerals.  This helps keep your body from becoming too acidic.
• Vitamin A helps repair the mucous membranes of your intestinal tract.
• Lots of B vitamins to help support your nervous system.
• Omega 3 from salmon oil has strong antifungal properties.
• Buffered vitamin c with bioflavanoids protects against viral and bacterial infections.
• A balance of the vitamins/minerals needed to strengthen the immune system.

 Use a minimum of one Total Health Packet per day. 

For more details about the benefits of the Total Health Packs go to www.TotalHealthPack.com

Step 5. Boost Your Immune System

The primary function of the immune system is to protect the body against infection and the development of cancer. Therefore it is critical to repair a compromised immune system that has been damaged by the toxins produced by a Candida overgrowth.   

By taking a combination of the Total Health Pack and the Candida Stop, you will get the support you need to help restore your immune system.

Step 6. Ensure Healthy Elimination

Proper bowel function is critical for eliminating the toxins released from the Candida die-off.  Also waste that does not get eliminated creates a breeding ground for unwanted bacteria, yeasts and parasites. 

What is proper bowel function?

For the live version (and some fun) view the video clip “The Elite Club” at the top of this event page.

*Every person should have at least 2-3 bowel movements per day (one per meal).  You do not have to have a movement following each meal, you just must eliminate 2-3 times per day, which could all be in the morning, or could all be in the evening or throughout the day.

*There should be no stress or straining.

*The total stool length per movement should measure from the crease of your wrist to the bend of your elbow.

*The diameter should be the size of the circle you make by placing your pointer finger at the bend in your thumb.

*The stool should be light to medium brown in color, free of undigested food, non-odorous, and mostly floating.

The Two Stages of Colon Health

Stage one: Improve day to day function to achieve elimination as close as possible to the above description.

Stage Two: Remove all the old fecal material.  You will need the right combination of herbs and supplemental fiber along with very specific instructions on “how to cleanse” (no special diet, fasting or colonics required).   

Do not miss these two stages of colon health. You cannot eliminate the toxins produced by the Candida if you do not maintain proper elimination.  And, you cannot eradicate the Candida overgrowth and keep it from returning if you do not clean out its breeding grounds. 

If you are presently unable to do the Anti-Candida Program, then you should take this time to complete a proper colon cleanse.  Details can be found in my CD set “Colonic Tonic, How to Poop Your Way to Optimal Health” (available at my One Stop Health Shop). Or you can be coached through this process by becoming an Inner Circle Member (details at on my website at What Is the Inner Circle?).

If you are ready to begin the Anti-Candida Program, then you must ensure that your bowel is eliminating as closely as possible to the above description.  Immediately following the Anti-Candida Program you need to complete a proper colon cleanse.

Herbal Support

There are many herbal products that will help you eliminate better.  One product that I can recommend that is very gentle but effective is Classic Natural Tea.

It contains buckthorn in combination with dandelion root, chickweed, peppermint leaves, rosehips, orange peel, honeysuckle, marshmallow root and chamomile flower.

Buckthorn helps the bowel evacuate normally, by stimulating the flow of bile from the liver to the gall bladder.  Bile has a laxative effect.  Buckthorn has a calming effect on the gastrointestinal tract.  Buckthorn can be used for long periods of time without discomfort or being habit forming.  

THE NITTY GRITTY DETAILS

There are lots of books on treating Candida and they are all filled with generalizations.  I have yet to see one that specifically maps out a step-by-step system for successfully treating Candidiasis in 4-6 weeks. 

My E-Guide “Eradicate Candidiasis in 4-6 weeks” will tell you exactly what you can and can’t eat (including recipes), what to do if you have a resistant case of Candida, how much Candida killer to take, when to increase your dosage, what is die-off, how to keep Candida from returning and more.

Right Action + Correct Supplementation = Success

Whether you eliminate the excess Candida in 4-6 weeks and whether or not it returns is completely dependant on three things.

1. Knowing what to do through the program
2. Knowing what to take, how much and when
3. The quality of the products that you use

“I have struggled with my weight and health for many, many years.  I would loose weight but it would find me again and again.  I was told I was suffering from depression and put on antidepressants.  Then one day I was asked if I wanted to go hear a lady talk about hormones etc. Thankfully someone took the time to ask me and I will be forever grateful for that.
