Colloidal Silver for Candida

Posted on May 4, 2020February 24, 2023 by Dr. Jean

Two popular and natural means to rid the body of Candida infections are to change the body’s PH through diet, or to treat the affected area either topically or internally, using a colloidal silver Candida treatment.

Prescription antibiotics used to fight infections kill all bacteria indiscriminately, including the friendly bacteria that keep fungi such as Candida in check.

What is Candidiasis?

Candidiasis is an over abundance of naturally occurring yeast that grows into a fungal infection when an environment is created that allows the yeast to bloom. Friendly aerobic bacteria present in the body generally act to control the level of this yeast.

Acidophilus is a common example that may become lacking due to dietary restrictions. Diabetics are particularly afflicted as their above normal sugar levels can provide an over abundant food source for the yeast.

Internal (Systemic) Candida

Untreated, internal Candida in the intestinal tract can build up to levels that eventually enter and invade the blood stream to become leaky gut syndrome, create sinus infections or develop candida patches on the skin.

In leaky gut, the yeast can grow long roots into the lining of the intestinal wall, allowing access to the bloodstream. This can often lead to a compromised immune system that provokes other illnesses.

The fungus produces microscopic barb-like hooks, called rhizoids, that cut into tissue causing irritation around the infected area.

How Colloidal Silver Works

The colloidal silver Candida treatment fights fungi on contact both internally and externally. Topically, colloidal silver is safely applied without worry of adverse affects.

Recommended applications are two to three times per day until the symptoms subside. Internally, Colloidal silver dosage should be small at first, about 1 tablespoon a couple of times per day.

 

How to Break Down Candida Biofilm for Best Results

All species of Candida have a defense mechanism called biofilm. Biofilm is a slimy film that yeast secrete and hide beneath. This allows them a “blanket” to safely multiply in numbers.

This biofilm is extremely difficult for anti-fungals (including colloidal silver) to penetrate, and it’s also highly toxic to the human body. It’s responsible for many symptoms including: fatigue, digestive issues and the dreaded brain-fog associated with candida overgrowth. 

In order to ensure your colloidal silver works effectively for Candida, you’ll want to first dissolve this biofilm barrier and expose the candida colonies hiding underneath. This will help make your colloidal silver more powerful in eliminating the candida overgrowth. 

One of the safest ways to dissolve Candida biofilm is using systemic enzymes. These are natural enzymes that your body already produces. But in order to break down the tough walls of Candida biofilms, you need to use a lot more enzymes than you body normally produces. 

This is the 1-2 punch method that we share with our users in our private support group for not only eliminating Candida more quickly and effectively, but also for SIBO and other bacterial and fungal overgrowth as well. 

You can learn more about this powerful method here.

 

Candida Die-Off Symptoms

Be aware that when you begin treating Candida internally, the release of toxic waste by the abundant dying fungus can cause you to feel initially worse. This is referred to as Candida die-off.

For this reason it is suggested to begin treating the internal infection gradually at first, with small amounts of colloidal silver, in order to keep the waste substances to a level that is manageable for the body to expel.

People who use colloidal silver  topically usually report that it will cure athlete’s foot, vaginal infections, and skin fungal infections. However, if these Candida symptoms reoccur, it can be a sign of an internal infection.

Different Types of Colloidal Silver

The most effective kind of colloidal silver out there is generally copper in color, and doesn’t require special, light proof bottling.

True colloidal silver is often a rare supplement, since most companies are simply selling ionic silver, which is a clear, colorless liquid. Colloidal silver is superior because of it’s particle size in comparison to ionic silver.

Both are effective. However, it’s ideal to find the true colloidal silver.

Possible Side Effects

Colloidal silver is not approved by the FDA. When taken internally, the most well known side effect is argyria, the bluish gray tinting through depositing of sliver salts in the skin, eyes, and internal organs, which can occur in less than a year with frequent use.

However, the study was paid for by pharmaceutical interests and the type of silver this individual ingested was a homemade silver chloride (a silver component not associated with colloidal silver), with salt added to the brew.

He then applied this brew topically before sitting in a tanning bed to “fix” the silver into his skin.

There is a great deal of misinformation caused by the media these days and one need only investigate a little bit to uncover the truth.

Natural Treatment

If a person is wary of prescription pharmaceuticals, colloidal silver can be a worthwhile and more natural alternative for common cases of Candida such as Candida thrush of the mouth, jock itch or yeast infections.

For those concerned about the side effects of colloidal silver, it’s recommended as a topical treatment, rinse or mouth wash. Colloidal silver naturally leaves the body via the urine so that there is no buildup in the body.

It is one of the oldest forms of medicine that our civilization has used to treat a myriad of health issues.

In order to make the most of using colloidal silver, it’s best to follow a diet and supplement protocol. Restore 3 is an easy to follow protocol that includes enzymes and probiotics for an effective method of treating candida.

What is Candida Albicans Thrush?

Posted on July 3, 2019February 24, 2023 by Teresa

Candida albicans thrush is not a very rare thing to have. The fungus is called Candida albicans and is found naturally in the human body. It normally resides in the G.I. tract and mucous membranes within the body.

It can also travel through the body via the bloodstream. Like all fungus, it needs moisture to survive, and is relatively safe in normal amounts within the body.

What causes it to overgrow?

Changes in the natural chemistry of the body often makes Candida albicans, or Monilia, grow out of control. This overgrowth generally starts to cause problems when the balance within the gut is upset. Some of the localized problems appear as a white, creamy substance accompanied by itching and discomfort.

Often, Candida albicans thrush is referred to as Monilia, especially when infection occurs in or around the mouth. Whenever there is too much yeast in a region of the body an infection can occur.

Yeast cells generally colonize in typical areas in the body, in particular, the mouth, intestines, and genital regions. There are a few major factors that can cause this imbalance to occur.

Causes of Thrush

The most common causes of thrush are the overuse of antibiotics without repopulating the body with probiotics, once the round of antibiotics has been completed. Antibiotics kill the friendly, yeast regulating bacteria in your body.

Unfortunately, it kills the good bacteria as well as the bad, but does nothing to kill yeast cells. This then can allow Candida yeast to flourish unregulated, since there is nothing to keep the yeast in check. The most common overgrowth’s occur within the mouth and the vagina. This happens because of the warmth, darkness, and moisture in these areas.

Thrush and Monilia

Thrush is when this overgrowth occurs in the mouth. This happens most often in the mouths of infants, but can occur in adults too. It can also spread from the mouth to the esophagus and digestive tracts. In some instances it can be caused by a problem with the immune system itself not functioning properly.

Monilia often appears as a white film with red or bleeding patches on the gum’s, tongue, and other soft tissues of the mouth. Cultures and blood tests are normally used to identify the type of Monilia.

Doctors will often know it by sight and the cultures taken are usually to confirm diagnosis and treatment of it. If the cultures say that it is Candida Albicans the doctor will generally prescribe antifungals such as Nystatin or Capricin.

Treatments

Common, treatment for minor thrush problems generally require an over the counter medication. However, in severe cases, where thrush either is recurring, or there are other symptoms besides those in the mouth or throat, it is best to educate yourself on how to eliminate the root of the problem.

Generally, the root of the Candidiasis infection lies within the digestive tract, where colonies of yeast have overgrown beyond the bodies ability to regulate. In this scenario, it is best to adopt a particular anti Candida diet as well as adjust your lifestyle for a short period of time in order to aid your body in killing off the Candida.

The best treatment for Candida albicans we’ve found to date is the Restore 3 protocol. The program includes an easy to follow diet and supplements with the right balance of probiotics and enzymes to replenish your system. 

Thrush is a relatively simple organism and is easily fixed. However, if left untreated for too long, it can become a very relentless and resilient problem to be rid of. Major changes in diet, hormonal balance and antibiotics are usually the cause, and correcting these changes can usually provide quick relief.

What are Candida Biofilms?

Posted on May 27, 2019February 24, 2023 by Teresa

Candida is a type of yeast that lives in the human body typically. Candida can be found in the belly, mouth, and vagina. Usually, it doesn’t cause any problems. However, candida can multiply and grow out of control, or they can group in slimy structures called biofilms.

We often think of fungus and bacteria as single cells. However, this is not necessarily true. Many fungi, like candida, form together in clumps or biofilms. Biofilms help candida, and other bacteria evade conventional antibiotic treatments. It also protects them from the body’s immune response, which would typically eliminate bacteria and fungal infections. Biofilms are one reason why many fungal and bacterial infections have become resistant to commonly-used medications.

Biofilms

Biofilms protect the fungi and bacteria. They make sure infections like yeast infections and urinary tract infection much more difficult to treat. This is why many people get recurrent urinary tract and yeast infections month after month.

A candida biofilm is a protective matrix that is made up of polysaccharides. The biofilm acts as a shield to protect the bacteria or fungus from medications and other mainstay treatments. Biofilms are bad news for the medical community. They commonly attach to implantable devices like prosthetic heart valves and hip replacements. Many times, this causes the surrounding tissue to become infected. The implant may even have to be taken out of the body.

Biofilms can develop anywhere within the body. Candida albicans is one of the most common fungal infections in hospitals. Many existing treatments for candida, including Diflucan, are not effective. The fungus has become resistant thanks to biofilms. In fact, researchers now think that some candida infections are nearly immune to all antifungals. Additionally, candida becomes more resistant in time thanks to stronger biofilm development. So, the longer that you have the infection, the harder it will be to eliminate especially using traditional treatments like Diflucan.

Another Factor

Another factor that complicates matters is that biofilms usually house a mixture of microbicide species. So, you might find a combination of fungi, bacteria, and protozoa living in one biofilm. This makes it even harder to treat infections caused by biofilms. The standard treatment for fungal infections like candida is antifungal medications. However, these are not effective against bacteria. So, even if the fungal infection is eliminated with an antifungal medication like Diflucan, there can still be bacteria present in the biofilm causing symptoms.

Can Biofilms Be Destroyed?

Fortunately, biofilm can be destroyed. However, the process of getting rid of biofilms is a slow one, and it doesn’t happen overnight.

Biofilms consist of more than 30 percent glucose. So, it needs sugar to grow and reproduce. One aspect of biofilm treatment involves a change in diet. This prevents the biofilm from getting the things that it needs to become stronger like excess sugar.

Another step in treating biofilms is to flood your system with systemic enzymes. Systemic enzymes help break down the unique characteristics that make up biofilm. At the same time, these enzymes help repair damage to the body. Helpful enzymes for breaking down candida biofilms include hemicellulase and amylase.

We recommend a complete biofilm fighting system: the Restore 3 All-in-One Restoration Program. This program contains a variety of enzymes and ingredients that attack biofilms at their source and replenish your body with essential proteins designed to restore balance to your system and eliminate fungal infections once and for all.

Diflucan for Candida

Posted on May 1, 2019February 24, 2023 by Teresa

Diflucan is the brand name for the antifungal drug called Fluconazole. It is a potent drug used to treat Candida infections. Candidiasis is caused by the overgrowth of the fungus, Candida albicans. This infection can arise anywhere in the body, but it is more severe with immunocompromised patients.

Where does this Happen?

Fungal infections can occur on many regions of the interior and exterior body. Women commonly have yeast infections, but immunocompromised patients may develop oral thrush along the oropharynx or esophagus. It may become disseminated into the bloodstream which may then affect other organs. Infections can also occur in the kidneys or bladder to cause renal papillary necrosis or cystitis.

Prescription Treatments

Fluconazole belongs to a family of drugs. Similar drugs include itraconazole and ketoconazole, but many doctors will prescribe Diflucan For Candida. Fluconazole can penetrate the central nervous system (CNS) through the cerebrospinal fluid(CSF). We haven’t heard of many cases where a Fluconazole Candida treatment had lasting effects. Therefore, it is also used to treat another type of fungal infection called cryptococcal meningitis.

Ketoconazole is an imidazole antifungal agent. It inhibits an enzyme which converts lanesterol to ergosterol. Fungal membranes are unstable with decreased levels of ergosterol. Human cells are resistant to the effects of ketoconazole. Fluconazole and itraconazole are triazoles but function in a similar way.

Fluconazole is used as the drug of choice in treating oropharyngeal and esophageal Candidiasis. One dose of 150 mg is sufficient to treat a case of vulvovaginal Candidiasis. Candida infections of the bloodstream will require a daily dose of 400 mg, and the infected catheter must be removed. Patients who acquire deep candidal infections post-bone marrow transplant will also need to take Diflucan For Candida. If doctors don’t prescribe Diflucan for Candida they will often prescribe another antifungal mentioned above called Ketoconazole.   

How these Drugs are taken

Fluconazole is used in the initial and maintenance therapy of cryptococcal meningitis of AIDS patients. Patients who also suffer from candida infections of the mucosal surfaces such as the oropharynx can be treated with Diflucan. It has been to be effective in those with CD4 cell counts less than 200. Although, it has also been very effective in patients with cell counts less than 50. This is not recommended though because it has not shown to improve patient mortality, and it may cause resistance to the drug.

Diflucan can be administered as a tablet, suspension, or in intravenously. A daily dose can be used. It penetrates the CSF and other body fluids well. Dosages need to adjusted for those patients who have renal disease. It also can have reactions with other certain drugs the patient may be taking such as coumadin or phenytoin. Often if this happens, doctors will prescribe Nystatin for Candida which is another powerful antifungal.

Side Effects

The side effects of fluconazole include nausea and abdominal pain. A common reaction among HIV patients is allergic reaction. HIV patients may also develop Stevens – Johnson syndrome which may become fatal. Rare forms of toxicity to fluconazole include anaphylaxis, hepatic necrosis, and neutropenia.

Other types of antifungal agents exist such as amphotericin B. This agent has many uses similar to that of Diflucan. However, doctors now prescribe Diflucan For Candida instead of amphotericin B as the drug of choice, in most cases, because amphotericin B has many more side effects. It has been nicknamed amphoterrible.

Fluconazole is less effective than itraconazole in treating blastomycosis, histoplasmosis, and sporotrichosis. Also, Fluconazole is also not effective in mucormycosis and aspergillosis.

Natural Treatments

Since fluconazole and other prescription medications are not shown to have lasting effects, diet and lifestyle changes are the way to beat candida. The easy to follow steps found in the Restore 3 protocol have been shown to be an effective, lasting way to get rid of yeast infections.

How to Cure Candida

Posted on April 17, 2019February 24, 2023 by Teresa

If you are desperate to cure Candida, or any of the symptoms of Candida, the best approach is to either seek out a health care professional who has a lot of experience with this organism, or follow a proven system based on sound, practical steps from people who have cured themselves on their own. Check out the Restore 3 protocol to find an easy to follow guide for curing Candida. 

How to Approach Treatment

Approach treatment for Candida seriously as it can be a tough organism to eradicate once it has a foothold in your body. Whether you decide to try one of the many Candida remedies on your own, or seek out a professional, there are 3 main elements within a treatment regimen to always look for when searching for a lasting cure for Candida. Most effective Candida cures incorporate the following program in treatment:

1. Do a general detox flush to ensure your body will be able handle the temporary influx of toxins that will need to be processed as the Candida die off.

What is a Systemic Candida Infection?

Posted on April 3, 2019February 24, 2023 by Teresa

A systemic Candida infection can be a potentially serious issue, but if treated properly can be managed through the timely application of medication and proper diet. Though not normally life-threatening, it should be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

A systemic Candida infection usually makes an appearance due to the presence of the most common Candida microorganism, which is Candida albicans. Systemic Candida essentially means that the yeast has entered the bloodstream and can travel to other parts of the body and organs. In more serious cases, systemic Candida infection can sometimes result in organ infection.

Yeast Infections

In other instances, systemic Candida overgrowth will result in what is known as Candidemia. This medical condition is more commonly known as invasive Candidiasis which is the presence of yeasts or fungi in the bloodstream. Upon physical examination the patient will most often reveal a history of several days of fever that is strangely resistant to most broad spectrum antibiotics.

The way Candida can go systemic within the body is mainly by it growing long roots within the digestive tract and actually penetrating the lining of the small or large intestine. Once these roots penetrate the intestinal lining, the organism has access to the bloodstream, enabling it to travel systemically throughout the body.

Treatment

While there is no single systemic Candida cure, today’s modern medical therapies can generally deal with the issue and return a patient to eventual good health when applied quickly and with a concerted effort on the part of the medical team treating the patient who suffers from systemic Candida infection. In its most serious form, such an infection, although highly rare, could lead to septic shock.

The above should be considered a medical emergency and all curative or supportive measures should be applied with as much vigor as possible. As the word says, “systemic” means exactly what it sounds like; Candida will have gotten loose from the gastrointestinal tract where it normally resides and invaded or infected more than a few of the bodies organs or systems.

Most Common Type Causing Illness

Many people do not know that there are more than 200 Candida species which exist in nature. Fortunately, for all of us there are only a very few of these species which have been tied to any disease in humans. As was said the most common species of Candida organism is Candida albicans. It is responsible for 50 to 60% of illnesses in humans have been ascribed to Candida infection. The albicans organism is a hardy species, and it isn’t uncommon for it to make its way into many organs or bodily systems with relative ease.

Sometimes traditionally known as systemic Candida yeast, this form of Candida infection will most often affect a woman’s vaginal area. If the Candida organism can make a breakout from this area it is possible that it could infect the organs in the abdominal cavity, which could lead to Candida peritonitis. Most people suffering from this illness will complain of fever and abdominal pain.

How to Control Systemic Candida

Systemic Candida infections might be more widespread than has been assumed, and it’s thought that many people have this condition without even knowing it. What’s known about Candida is that it can be controlled or eliminated from the gastrointestinal tract by good diet and the introduction of Lactobacilli probiotics which help to control the growth or creation of the Candida organism.

Never underestimate the potential for illness that the Candida organism can cause. Take a bit of time to learn something about Candida so that a small problem doesn’t turn into a much bigger issue. It is a very resilient organism that must be taken seriously if an infection is suspected.

It has been shown that Candida can form biofilms to protect itself. Treatments can be ineffective or short-lived if these biofilms aren’t broken down in order for the Candida to lose its strength. This is a great protocol to break down this biofilm and effectively get rid of Candida, for good: Biofilm Protocol.
