Herbs & Diet to Kill Candida and Other Fungal, Yeast Infections

These foods contain potent anti-fungal properties, so they do a remarkable job of killing Candida. They should make up a substantial portion of any Candida detox diet, which should also include other low-sugar, high fiber vegetables. High fiber raw produce creates the right environment for beneficial bacteria to thrive.

Green Apples
Pomegranates
Garlic
Oregano
Onions
Leeks
Coconut
Rutabaga
Turnips
Olive Oil
Lemons & Limes
Pumpkin Seeds
Broccoli
Brussels sprouts
Arugula
Watercress
Cabbage

These spices also have potent anti-fungal properties. Try to work them into your meals every chance you get.

Thyme
Turmeric
Clove
Cayenne Pepper
Cinnamon

These probiotic foods are very beneficial if you can get them with live cultures. Consuming these foods will help increase the numbers and effectiveness of your beneficial bacteria. Take care to check the labels in order to avoid MSG, artificial flavors, and other questionable ingredients that are sometimes found in these foods.

Sauerkraut
Kimchi
Raw apple cider vinegar
Acidophilus
Kombucha
Yogurt (like Bio-K and other powerful probiotics in the supplement section, not cheap yogurt in the dairy section)
Kefir (unsweetened)
Other fermented vegetables
The problem with many of the aforementioned foods is that the stomach acid typically kills most or all of the beneficial bacteria. Some yogurts are designed with bacteria strong enough to survive stomach acid, and high quality probiotic capsules are typically designed get through acid and release in the gut.

If you want to heal from Candida faster, these herbal supplements can help to speed up the process.

Goldenseal
Olive leaf extract
Neem oil
Grapefruit seed extract
Oil of Oregano
Black walnut
Pau d’arco
Castor bean oil extract (undecenoic acid)
Propolis
Echinacea
Wormwood
Tea tree oil

Conclusion
Candida overgrowth is incredibly common. A diet high in starches, sugars, preservatives, and processed foods feeds Candida while a diet high in raw produce feeds Candida’s competition. Once you kill off the Candida, you’ll be amazed by the clarity you gain and the difference in how you feel. In addition, the dietary changes you make will provide the foundation for a vital, healthy life. If you’re dealing with a body full of Candida, be sure to check into undecenoic acid supplementation. It’s an incredibly efficient and powerful fungal killer that does not let Candida adapt like it does with other protocols.
