SIMPLE HOME CANDIDA TEST:

Try this simple test to see if you have candida yeast infection. First thing in the morning, BEFORE YOU PUT ANYTHING in your mouth, get a clear glass.

1. Fill the glass with water.

2. Work up a bit of saliva. (Massage your glands above your jaw bone if your having difficulty bringing up enough saliva).

3. Spit it into the glass of water. Do not stir.

4. Check the water every 15 minutes or so, up to an hour.

If you have a candida yeast infection, you will see string-like legs moving down towards the bottom of the glass. Or, you might see cloudy particles that are suspended in the water.

If there are no strings and the saliva remains floating on the surface for the entire hour you probably don’t have candida yeast overgrowth.

Over 80% of the population has candida yeast infection. That is why most people show positive for candida when they take the test.

TREATMENT PROTOCOL: Typically we will use a four-pronged approach.

    1. Oxy-Mag capsules- Oxygen in easy to take capsule form floods your digestive tract with oxygen to kill off the excess yeast overgrowth.

           2. Oregano Oil drops- A concentrated oil that kills the yeast/fungus build-up in your organs and tissues.

    3. Ionic Silver lozenges- A silver lozenge that reaches the yeast and any other pathogen at the cellular level. Thus clearing the problem in areas the oxygen cannot reach.
4. Probiotic Organisms- Introducing good bacteria back into your body to balance the overgrowth of yeast. The good bacteria help to neutralize the spread of the yeast.

WHAT TO EXPECT: This organism is extremely resilient and difficult to get rid of in your body. It can take several months to a few years to re-establish good health. Much patience, persistence and self-discipline is required to complete the process of healing. The typical response is to experience more frequent bowel activity (between 3-5 per day is a good cleansing amount). Your stool may fluctuate between loose (liquefied waste) or hard bowel movements. You can expect a healing reversal from the typical candida yeast infection. Symptoms includes, but are not limited to, the following: skin rashes, itchy skin, depression, bloating, irritability, mental confusion or spaciness, anxiety, headaches, vaginal discharge, white furry tongue, etc.
