The list of things to do to cure candida according to Dr. Axe: 1. Stop consuming sugar 2. Eliminate grains from diet 3. Consume foods that support the spline 4. Consume foods that support the liver (e.g. sour foods) 5. Consume foods that support the intestine (e.g. turmeric) 6. Take a probiotic 7. Consume warm foods (e.g. bone broth soup)
I’ve had no sugar since January of 2023. I don’t eat any breads or grains. I eat very Little fruit. I eat a lot of yogurt and kombucha. I eat tons of arugula and lettuce with apple cider vinegar. And I take a lot of probiotics! I have the worst yeast infection right now that I’ve ever had! I cannot seem to get ANY help!!!
@@saramcdowell4735at the beginning you have to not use probiotics because that will just keep it alive and exacerbate the problem. After a hardcore cleanse you can slowly add tiny ammounts and build up probiotics.
It’s best to use Doctor Eromon on TH-cam remedies for recurrent candida infection and other UTIs Speaking from personal experience he cured me completely with his products 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Eliminate sugar, grain, drink barley tea, drink less booze, eat sour stuff, eat bitter food like kale/cinnamon/ginger/tumeric. THANK YOU DR. JOSH AXE, you rule dude.
it's been 3 month have you been cured from Candida yet? For me I had it for 3 and been using anti fungal cream doctor prescribed to me for 2 months. I was wondering how long it took for some people. Mine seems like it won't heal anytime soon. And I am sick of having to put the cream on 2x a day every day this long.
@@JonBandMiley I have a 1” in diameter spot on my hand. I’ve been applying clotrimazol and been on the candida diet for a week now. It’s still spreading but it’s much less flakey and I’m surprised and the results this fast
@@imthirstyh2o330 Turns out it wasn't only antifungal cream I was given like I thought. The doc was giving me steroid creams.... stronger and stronger each time they wouldn't work. After 2 months of that I stopped on my own as I was getting rashes on my hands and feet. Then sadly, skin on my penis thinned out. Now I can't have sex or jack off again. So now I just want to get shot in the head or have a huge heart attack. They say a few people heal, but even then it takes at least 3 MONTHS to regain thickness and firmness of the penis again. I can't believe a licensed doctor didn't take me off STRONG STEROID CREAMS after 14 days like they are legally supposed to. I had no idea I was taking drugs and no idea I was supposed to be off them after 14 days. I just want to have a heart attack and die, this is definitely not the life someone should live, especially when they got over 60 years left to live!
Ok. This is overwhelming. I’ve read so many articles, I watched so many videos by different doctors… and they all contradict each other. Yes to Starchy food, No to grains! Yes to grains (buckwheat and millet), no to starchy food! Yes to sauerkraut! No to Sauerkraut! The only thing they all agree on is No to Sugar.
The constants are cut out sugar, eat high protein/low carb diet and increase bitter foods including garlic, ginger, kale. Increase probiotics and and fermented foods.
@@mlklotusmann6749 The main problem I see with this set of steps & items is that some of them are high in histamine & I need to stay away from them or I get other flareups :/
Barbara Onei’ll is her namne. And you wanna be aware of the die off effect, that actually make symptoms worse when you are killing what you don’t want in there.
@@mlklotusmann6749 Actually if you have leaky gut or histamine issues, fermented is very bad. High protein is also very bad unless you're eating high animalfat with it. There's contradicting info on things depending on possible health issues
Thank you. I’m literally crying as I’m taking all your suggestions down. Thank youuu I will keep you posted. I’ve been dealing with this for 12 years with breaks here and there when I’m able to luckily balance my meals, stress and sleep. I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems people like me with childhood trauma tend to get these symptoms the worst or most. I’ve been working on myself so much to finally realize successful people don’t find themselves, they choose to be successful. I don’t know how to choose to get rid of these symptoms, but I choose to do as much research as I can until I can connect with someone who knows what I need. We’re all different and I pray you all find what you need too!
It always makes me so sad as well, how people with so much pain end up so sick. So much pain led me here. It's so much work to reverse sickness. I wish you the best, I hope it's going well 😊
@@hcure4003 wish you the best too! When I go through extreme stress, for some reason, I get really sick and lose appetite for like a week. Broths and the BRAT diet help me regain my strength. Liquid IV packs in lemon flavor help, room temp water only, no cold drinks, no caffeiene, no acidic foods, avocados and steamed veggies helped too… 🩷🩷🩷 hope you all are doing well!
@@MonicaElena310 it's crazy how much stress alone can do. Deep breathing exercises seem to help me a lot. My body loves steamed veggies too! And also room temp drinks only (or warm). Strangely I get more hungry when I'm stressed, like I'm tempted to stress eat 😣 Thank you! hopefully I'll get there sooner than later :)
I was able to do it for two weeks and it definitely made a difference in my skin- I get cystic acne. I do not take as much time to cook healthier meals every single day and do eat a fair amount of wheat. I definitely need to do this diet again and commit to ditching dairy/wheat
@@Haruzumakii After getting leaky gut & then autoimmune intoI to gluten & grains I had no choice but to stop all grain carbs & even sugar. When you HAVE to, it's easier to quit. I couldn't do it before this happened so it was easier.
I did it for a month last year and felt great afterwards. Now I have to do it again 😢. Hoping this time I figure out what I don't need to pick back up eating again.
Thank you for posting this. I am trying to be a positive force for change. I have been battling epilepsy since a car accident about 10 years ago. I am eating ketogenically as and adjunct to seizure medication and feel much better! It is a challenge, because I am also trying to eat vegan for spiritual and personal reasons... I am sure I had an ongoing systemic candida infection! I am just now being treated for partial complex seizure disorder and and seeing positive differences in my life. I am actually making TH-cam videos on the subject of my battles with TBI, epilepsy and myeloma. I am on a constant search for how to inspire others to change their thinking. This is well needed! Thanks!!!
Guess what, your fears are well founded, there is a new medicine resistant strain of fungis called candida aurous its deadly and found in hospitals and areas where people live and are in large amounts one out of 3 people will die from this.
Great video Josh. You mentioned the 'best kept secret' is to treat the spleen, in my clinical experience I'd say it's "identifying and treating the stressors" in your life. Stress undermines adrenal and thyroid function, and once cortisol and TSH become compromised your immune system goes south - increasing the likelihood of immune acute responses, allergies, auto-immune issues and eventually cancer. Most chronic candida cases that are unresponsive will have adrenal fatigue underpinning them, I've found this after treating Candida in the clinic for nearly three decades. I think you docs that focus on TCM tend to call it "kidney weakness". Second point is you may like to mention- if the candida patient can't stop alcohol (the WORST carb with Candida) until they recover (not even one drink a week) they may as well stay with their medical doctor and remain on drugs for symptomatic relief.
Exceptional comment - I'm post RAI Graves pt. You might imagine my chronic issue w this - (that tx really --- sad now,not right on any level to do this to pts) Great points - value the additional info, thank you for sharing.
This is very informative especially when all simptoms are not considered individual issues. Now I know to implament a total body cleanse. yeastinfectiontreatmentnatural.blogspot.com

I always thought I had serious medical problems because I always feel unwell. Thank you for addressing this, I'm convinced that it's this culprit that is causing all the havoc in my body. I really appreciate this video. Thank you 🙏
I once had what the doc said was Bell’s Palsy and told me my face would remain like that forever. I had seen an ENT years before for a very bad ear infection and remembered him mentioning yeast so I started researching. As a result, I only ate lean meat and vegetables, and I cut everything else out. One week later I started getting my sensation back where it had been numb. Three weeks later, my face was all better. I couldn’t believe how well I felt, even my adhd symptoms drastically improved.
I was diagnosed with esphogeal candidiasis. I have all these symptoms except instead of gaining weight, I’ve lost quite a bit. The fatigue has been miserable and stiff neck. Great video, lots of helpful info!
How does the doctor take the tests in us to knoe what spieces u have in the body so I can.tell.them cause they dont know anything about candida in sweden
@@brianmacleod4649 okey thanks for answer.🙏 I have to fix this myself I will start buy thorne sf22 people claim it healed them , same effect as fluconazole... 🙏 have tried Everything nothing works .. have had candida over 2 years .. and lost weight as you wrote. Doctors dont do anything here u have to heal yourself :/
@@YeshuaIloveuuu I’m sorry your going through such a rough time. One thing I found that fixed my problem is to consider Iron supplement. I was anemic and my low blood cell production coincided with the fungal growth. Flucanozole will only make it go away temporarily. To fix the underlying problem maybe consider all the diet and nutrition options that you can. Best of luck!
Dr. Axe can you please create a video that helps with the horrible side effects of coming off sugar/grains? I do have systemic candida issues. All your steps make sense (although i add Goldthread (berberine substance)); however, sticking to it, through a detox, is crazy difficult and any ideas to help the discomfort through the first 5 days would be awesome.
Only thing I disagree with is ACV...I did everything else recommended but only when I stopped using Apple cider vinegar is when I stopped having yeast issues 👍🏽
just found this while watching other videos on your channel. I am already making these changes, but I thought it might be a good watch. I'm amazed right now! A couple years ago, my spleen was enlarged, and every so often it happens again, and is very painful. I was also told that I had a mild yeast infection at the time. Seemingly unrelated, but today it suddenly all made sense! Thank you!
Ive been wondering why im supporting my liver but my spleen keeps paining and the spleen reflex on my foot keeps hurting. Thanks for explaining why Dr Axe. You're awesome!
I‘d like to suggest Lapacho tee also known as Pau‘d arco which is doing an excellent job: take 1 Liter per day for 6 weeks, then pause for 4 weeks. Coconut oil, garlic and oregano are also powerful plus grapefruit seed extract!
If you have Candida, Mercury anagrams fillings in your teeth can cause it. They are highly toxic and I cannot stress enough how sick they can make you feel. I've been suffering from it lately and I’ve never felt so sick in my life!! If you have the mercury fillings, Please get them removed! Wishing you the best during your detox. XOXO.

Hi, I have been suffering with Candida in my mouth and got it in my toe nail- I thinks it’s in my gut too as I get acid reflux and can’t digest my food, feel achy and heaviness in body and bloated stomach and back pain - I also have IBS alternating constipation and Diarrhoea - I really need help as I have been feeling fatigued - there is no real treatment out there - now I have started taking probiotics and have ordered capsules of oil of oregano- dr axe I have the exact symtoms you have described in your video on Candida - I will try all diet you have suggested - thank you so much for that video
FYI if you're allergic to bees be careful with manuka honey or any raw unprocessed honey. I didnt know before I tried manuka and had a reaction that sometimes it can happen. I've had other unprocessed honeys but the manuka I got made my throat a little tight & mouth itchy! So use caution if you have a bee allergy.
Really surprised you recommend Manuka honey. Being a kiwi we already use it topically on wounds etc but friends who are beekeepers feel it does little for internal health. However another wee gem on the honey world here is honey dew honey which I use daily. It’s had two insects processing it so it’s full of polysaccharides and does wonders for my hay fever. Also I personally couldn’t have barley tea thanks to it not being a gluten free grain.
I just read on another site that had knowledge of Chinese medicine and it said that the spleen requires warm foods. So I'm glad that he said consume warm foods as a confirmation.
I am a fifteen year old living in the UK who has self diagnosed herself with a candida overgrowth, IBS and PCOS who has frequently been to the doctors asking for a diagnosis which has always ended in a "youre fine. just take some anti-biotics" and "youre too young to make a diagnosis on, youre a teenager and many things happen to your body at that time" like wtf? you want to diagnose me when im 18 where it would most definitely become worse, to the point where i could be on the verge of catching diseases from this fungus? AND GUESS WHAT. after months of visiting and having myself to explain my self diagnosis, they actually came to a fucking realisation that what i had been saying all this time is not bullshit. This is why i dont trust my doctors and tend to research more upon my problems. But then again, whats the point? whats the point in going to a doctor when you know that there is actually no specific cure but just remedies upon remedies that are in store for you that you will have to eventually adapt into a daily routine. I mean i suffer from stress eating due to extreme depression, mostly from foods that candida loves and you expect me to stay like this forever? I doubt I will ever truly overcome this candida problem but this video was a great help anyway. Damn why cant there be more doctors like you lol (btw in no way did i intend to offend Dr.Josh Axe, just expressing my thoughts that have been long kept inside)
Thanks for this information on Candida Dr. Axe. I've suffered with this for over 35 years. It's not completely gone and I think that how I contracted leaky gut but thanks to you and your products, I am getting better. I have been gluten-free, sugar-free and dairy-free for over 30 years. for the last year I have been grain-free. I have been eating clean for over 4 years so I am eating the food you mentioned in the video. I will increase the foods for the spleen, liver and intestines and switch to your brand of probiotics. Thanks and blessings to you.
I've been having almost all the symptoms you mentioned for a year now. I finally know the cause and the solution. This video was very deatiled, informative and neat. Thank you so much!
Oregano oil for 2 weeks and then you give yourself a break and olive leaf tree extract antifungal and great at killing off candida as well. The olive leaf is more of a supplement so you can take that for a while just make sure you're taking healthy probiotics. And definitely follow his advice avoid anything processed that includes sugar it's going to probably give you a detox side effects but man is it worth it at the end to feel better
1: no processed sugar, fruit juices 2: no grains 3: support spleen with squash 4: support liver: soure foods 5: support intestines: bitter foods 6: probiotic supplements
I have candida ..white tongue/ big belly Her is how I cure it Just eat first thing in the morning ( yogurt + garlic +latency or mint) for about month The garlic kills the harmful fungi The yogurt billed useful fungi.. Latency and mint... Make stomach relax and help with Gases... If this help you please pray for me
Garlic doesn't cure candida, it just goes into the blood and creates a pseudo-metabolism. People are slaves to garlic/onions and when they eat it they become like mindless robots, going to work and back without feeling any emotions, and working long hours without feeling anything in their bodies. Garlic eater = docile human that is easy to control.
um. ur still fn contagious with invasive candida for the rest of ur life. why are u all acting like it makes a difference if ur symptoms are reduced????! LOL this is unbelievable and the fact u ppl think u can cure this, makes me wanna laugh in your faces. you have this for life people. WAKE UP
To those people, I do the tough love response, "then stay sick" simple as that. I spent the last 3-1/2 yrs bedridden 24/7 with caregivers as well, after getting bit by a tick and getting Lyme disease. My whole world went upside overnight. I was very healthy and super active and then it was gone in an instant, so please don't tell us how you can't stop your sugar. boo hoo! Try being bedridden for a lengthy amount of time and then see what you will do. "ANYTHING"!!! should be the answer!!! I have healed the Lyme (with Colloidal Gold, not silver) and a few other things, now working on the fungal aspect, I was 59 when I got bitten and now 64, I am walking 4 mikes a day and starting to lift weights as I lost ALL of my muscle mass as well as 30 lbs I didn't need to lose..If I can do it ANYONE can! Good luck hope I wasn't too harsh its really more about my passion for health. Blessings!

Our son is always getting what seems like strep but it doesn't test out as strep. I'm thinking it must be candida overgrowth. White coated tongue and throat, always tired, sore throat too. He does consume a lot of processed foods and sugar. Also he recently started working the night shift and his circadian rhythms are all out of whack. He'll sleep for like 16 hours.
About bitter foods; Would Dandelion qualify? I have a lot of those in my yard and every spring I harvest the fresh young plants and eat them in salads, The older plants get tough and VERY bitter. I also wonder whether dandelion root tea might be helpful. PS I never use pesticides on my grass.

Dr. Axe thanks for this video. However, my Candida overgrowth is so bad that it’s caused a leaky gut, therefore I have food sensitivities/ histamine intolerance! Is there anything else I can do for the liver besides fermented or cultured foods? Ugh I feel so stuck because of all the foods I CANNOT EAT!

I CURED MY CANDIDA OVERGROWTH. I HAD VERY BAD CANDIDA OVERGROWTH. EVERYTIME I WOULD EAT SOMETHING THAT CONTAINED SUGAR I WOULD BREAK OUT VERY BADLY ALL OVER MY BODY. I TRIED EVERYTHING INCLUDING GOING VEGAN. AND THE VEGAN DIET DID HELP REALLY WELL BUT AS SOON AS I ATE SOMETHING AND ANYTHING WITH SUGAR IN IT THE NEXT MORNING I WOULD BREAK OUT BADLY. HOW I CURED MY CANDIDA: CANDIDA OVERGROWTH IS A RESULT OF HEAVY METAL TOXICITY AND I WENT TO MY DOCTOR TO CONFIRM THIS THEORY. IT SHOWED THAT MY MERCURY LEVELS WERE 9.9 WHEN THE SAFE LEVELS ARE 2. I WENT ONLINE AND ORDERED ZEOLITE TO CHELATE THE HEAVY METALS IN MY BODY. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH ON ZEOLITE I WAS WAY DOWN IN MY HEAVY METAL LOAD. AND AT THAT POINT AND NOW FOR MORE THAN A YEAR I CAN EAT WHATEVER I LIKE TO EAT INCLUDING CHOCLATES AND CAKES AND DRINK SODAS AND HAVE NO BREAKOUT WHATSOEVER. CANDIDA OVERGROWTH IS A RESULT OF A HEAVY METAL OVERLOAD. I ALSO RECOMMEND BUYING GROUNDED CORIANDER AND CHILANTRO POWDER AND DRINKING THAT BEFORE BED TO SPEED UP THE CHELATION PROCESS. PERSONALLY I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE MEDICAL CHELATION PROCESS BECAUSE IT HAS SOME POTENTIAL NASTY SIDE EFFECTS. HOW: I DID ONE SCOOP OF ZEOLITE 2-3 TIMES A DAY FOR A TWO MONTH PERIOD. I ALSO HAD ABOUT 500ML OF WATER MIXED WITH GROUNDED CORIANDER AND CHLORELLA POWDER IN THE EVENING TO SPEED UP THE REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS. MY BRAIN FOG CLEARED UP, MY SWEATING WENT AWAY ( BUT IT DOES COME BACK SOMETIMES IF I HAVE EATEN LARGE FISH SEVERAL DAYS IN A ROW BECAUSE OF THE HEAVY METALS THEY CONTAIN ESPECIALLY FARMED FISH), BREAKOUTS GONE ETC GOOD LUCK GUYS!
It was not only sugar. It was also fish, meat including chicken, potato and other starchy foods and any foods that contained sugar also in the form of fructose. To my knowledge there are three ways of chelating heavy metals 1. The natural way by using for example cilantro and chlorella in conjunction 2. Going to the doctor and using chemical based chelation 3. Zeolite Zeolite attaches itself to heavy metals including mercury which we are being poisoned with through the foods we consume and fish is especially high on the culprit list. I say choose which ever way fits your preferences but do your own research. There is little doubt at least my mind based on my experience and the experience of many that Candida overgrowth is based on heavy metal toxicity. And you get can heavy metal toxicity by having amalgam fillings like I had when I was in my teens, you can get it through consuming fish (the fda now recommends eating fish a maximum of 2 times per week). If you absolutely love fish and cannot live without it try to stick to the smaller kinds and supplement with selenium as selenium aids in the non absorption of heavy metals.
@@Hveragerthi You have done good research. That is for sure! Did you have candida overgrowth and if so how did you neutralise it? I'm speaking from personal experience and from a perspective of someone who finally managed to beat what was a very bad case of candida overgrowth. For a second I thought you were here to misinform. I can tell you from first hand personal experience that zeolite does chelate heavy metals. You are right about the fact that the bigger fish contain more mercury, but the issue is also that 75% of all fish is farmed and the absolute worst is Norwegian salmon. If you must eat farmed salmon then I recommend the Irish salmon. They write that it is organic but I please remember that organic is not the same as wild. It just means that they take greater care in how many fish are kept per square foot, what kind of feed the fish get etc. If you want to watch a good documentary on the fishing industry here is a good one: th-cam.com/video/RYYf8cLUV5E/w-d-xo.html Not only are they propping the fish with mercury and hormones in most cases but also with something called ethoxyquin which is a known carcinogen in many cases. You can keep the fish in as clean water as you want but if you feed them with known carcinogens and mercury ladden fish feed the result will be the same. It turns out the company that is producing and putting this carcinogen into the fish feed is you guessed it our old friend MONSANTO. The same company that is putting other carcinogens into our foods via their pesticides, They were just ordered to pay 289 million dollars to a customer who got cancer from one of their pesticides. Again if there are other methods that are natural and proven I think that is wonderful. I must emphasize proven as I spent hundreds of hours and hundreds of dollars trying out many different diets and methods until I did a mercury test. Once my mercury levels were reduced the candida overgrowth issue went away. So my first advice to anyone trying to find a solution to an issue is see if you can find someone who has had success before you. If they have and if it is SAFE then you should consider giving it a go. I"m not a medical doctor so you must take this as a friendly use of the freedom of speech and as coming from someone who wants to help others along the way with Love. I have used zeolite and when combined with Cilantro, Chlorella and lots of water it did wonders for me. Peace and Love
Omg... you speaking facts!! What about small fish like sardines or shrimp? Do you think those add to heavy mental aswel? And also what about the grains/beans and fruits? Thanks
Hey Dr.Axe! First I want to say, YOU ARE AWESOME! My question is, what do you think about using Monkfruit Sweetener, I was a big user of brown sugar, now I switched to Monkfruit Sweetener.
If you know you have a candida overgrowth, You need to avoid anything made with yeast. That would definitely include apple cider vinegar, vinegar, beer, wine, alcoholic beverages of all varieties and sugar. Even most baked goods have a yeast to make the bread or cake rise. And once you make some progress, you have to fortify the gut flora with probiotics to keep the territory that you liberated from being re-infected by the opportunistic Candida Albicans.
Thank you so much. I get so exhausted all the time, sometimes are worse than others. I can go out one day feeling bad, the next I'm bed rideen. this makes so much sense. I know I have Candida, I have the signs. If i eat choclate, I feel terrible the next day. my tongue tases terrible, and my breat smells.
Doctor, I'm confused. I've read that although kefir and kombucha are great for natural probiotics in our system, candida feeds from fermented foods, such as kefir, kombucha, beer, etc. Is that true?
Thank you Dr Axe, for the info. I felt like you respected my time by getting right to the point, sharing exactly what was on your mind, not waiting to the end and telling me i had to buy your 15 dollar book to learn what you meant by your title. you subtly referred to your website and only on a popup wanted to sell something but I didn't feel guilted or scared into having to click on it if I wanted to live another day. I like your style, easy to listen to and no pressure information. because you didn't pressure me to go look at your site, I just might go there simply because I don't feel like it will be a trap.
The diet is hard to do when your used to eating whatever you want. Especially if you have to feed / cook for your family. What is the most important things to do to start with?
Kefir is great for your digestion. Probiotica fight to candida bi eating ol the shugger. I repair mij digestion bi drinking the Kefir water every day vor a have jear
I just found out about Candida! I have had diarrhea for over 10 years. I have gas all the time, bloating, fatigue, and rash on my forehead. I gotta try this because the doctors have no idea whats wrong with me.
Some very nice tips, especially the lesser known ones like supporting the spleen with barely tea. But a very important step was missed even though it's not food related. Aerobic exercise is very helpful to reducing candida since candida love anaerobic environments.
@@gargiganguly5076 I would assume so if your HIT gets your heart rate and oxygen levels up. It's not something I've read specifically, but I would think that the principals are the same.
How about coffee? I have been dealing with Candida for many years. I have cut out sugar and grains. I do love my 1/4 cup of coffee in 3/4 cup fresh made coconut milk every morning. I don’t add sugar. Is this ok?

Dr Josh - I know this is a old video but maybe you’ll see this question- maybe 22yr old daughter lost her Spleen in a car accident where many of her organs were punctured. What should she do more of or what can she take to prevent problems in the future? Thank you!!
How long should one stay on this diet?! I am very into fitness and I am also a college student eating in a cafeteria so without grains I feel like I won't have enough energy to walk around campus or get through my workouts. After seeing a chiropractor, she muscle tested me and said I could eat quinoa, brown rice, and ezekiel bread so I was just wondering what you thought about that?
I listened to Fit Life TV podcast called "DIY 48 Second Test for Candida." The gut expert is Christa Arrechio who states fermented foods FEEDS Candida. So who is right and who is wrong?
This is what I do. I take the antifungals with parasite cleaners too, for three days, aggressively. Then I take bentonite clay first thing the following morning. THEN I take cold packed, high strain probiotics targeted for vaginal health. They work the best for us women.
@@mariasaucedo5378 I too am curious if this works. I have suspected that I may have candida or some kind of fungal overgrowth for a while now. I have been dealing with digestive issues for years, I have a white coating on my tongue, small little bumps on my skin in some places, and a rosacea looking rash on my cheeks. I just don’t know what to eat if I cut out more foods than I already have like gluten, dairy, onion, garlic. I have only drank water with the exception of some protein shakes for years now. I am a pickier eater by nature and would not choose those sour and bitter foods, like sauerkraut. I do eat cinnamon though. But I worry about the advice to cut out all grains, does that include oatmeal, brown rice? How and where will I get enough fiber?
I'm a little confused, we should support the spleen by drinking barley tea, which contains gluten, but eliminate grains from diet. Wouldn't the tea possibly trigger gut issues??
Hi Dr. Josh, recently i was diagnosed with pulmonar cryptococosis. And my pneumologist prescribed me Fluconazol 400/day, but after take it for 1 month, i started to have heart problems, and i stopped take it. Thanks, Jack
I am suffering from yeast infection from 5 years and I want to get rid of this but Being an Indian its quite difficult to eliminate grains from diet as these are our main food. So please suggest some diet that can replace grains.
same here.. i started getting rid of rice. Just meat and fish and some green leaf. I feel bettet when i eat these foods alone but sometimes I get so weak that I need to eat rice. Sometimes eating meat alone makes me sick like i wanted something else. and i crave for sweet foods and cold drinks which i know i should not.
Miss Philippines Yeah u r right and I belong to India form a region where rice and pulse are the primary food and it is so familar that rice is eaten two times a day.But I totaly want to eleminate it but I don't even know whhat is the replacement of this?? Should I have wheat flour or oots because it is not possible to eat only fish or meat daily
I had candida albican for a lots of years. Had symptoms like... Mood swings Peristant bad breath Vomiting yellow and green color. Anxiety,.... The list goes on and on.
In 2010 I did a 21 day green juice fast and all of my tinea versacolor improved but not completely gone. Also all the joint pain left. I had so much energy. I believe I had candida and it was causing those symptoms. If you think you have candida try a green juice fast then work on eating a plant based diet.
I’m working with a Biological Dentist and when I told her I know I’ve been struggling with Candida for probably close to two decades, she said that I really need to cut out all sugar. I don’t eat processed sugar. I eat raw, local honey. I eat less than a tablespoon, and not even every day. Another thing is I was told to stay away from starchy foods with Candida. I’m so confused. I also eat raw milk yogurt and drink raw milk. Is this something I should stay away from too, dairy? Even tho it’s not crappy store bought milk?? I really need this to be gone once and for all. Not sure I’m clear on when to start introducing different foods back in tho. I don’t want to be afraid of eating for the rest of my life either…. 😒😣☹️
Thank you for the video =) . I don't see why using natural antifungals is not generally recommended. From my experience, if the infection is severe and very long term, natural antifungals are super important. What are the reasons that they are not recommended or not for longer period of time?
hey Dr Axe do you think enzymes have anything to do with alleviating acne? I feel like digesting the food properly is more associated with enzymes rather than the actual food you ingest.
Once candida is gone, do I have to always be on a low carb diet? I generally follow the Mediterranean Diet and LOVE that way of eating. Will I be able to go back to that once the candida is gone, or with the MD make candida come back?
The list of things to do to cure candida according to Dr. Axe:
1. Stop consuming sugar
2. Eliminate grains from diet
3. Consume foods that support the spline
4. Consume foods that support the liver (e.g. sour foods)
5. Consume foods that support the intestine (e.g. turmeric)
6. Take a probiotic
7. Consume warm foods (e.g. bone broth soup)
can you be specific about which type of grains we need to avoid? just to be sure, thanks a lot for your videos and information ;-)
Yes spisific grain and what about butter nuts aren't sweet that feed candida and what about gluten thanks for answering
Spleen
I’ve had no sugar since January of 2023. I don’t eat any breads or grains. I eat very Little fruit. I eat a lot of yogurt and kombucha. I eat tons of arugula and lettuce with apple cider vinegar. And I take a lot of probiotics! I have the worst yeast infection right now that I’ve ever had! I cannot seem to get ANY help!!!
@@saramcdowell4735at the beginning you have to not use probiotics because that will just keep it alive and exacerbate the problem. After a hardcore cleanse you can slowly add tiny ammounts and build up probiotics.
Candida is a serious issue which most people NEED to understand to correct a long list of illnesses which can be cured naturally. Love this video!

Eliminate sugar, grain, drink barley tea, drink less booze, eat sour stuff, eat bitter food like kale/cinnamon/ginger/tumeric.
THANK YOU DR. JOSH AXE, you rule dude.
Barley is a grain...
too much cinnamon (not Ceylon type) would be hard on liver

@@crisnyrio how do you cook them? I have no cooking ideas for those veggies 🤔
Who else is on a candida diet at the moment?
I hope to get on the road of recovery i have been sick for a while.
Me. Well wishes, you got this.
it's been 3 month have you been cured from Candida yet? For me I had it for 3 and been using anti fungal cream doctor prescribed to me for 2 months. I was wondering how long it took for some people. Mine seems like it won't heal anytime soon. And I am sick of having to put the cream on 2x a day every day this long.
@@JonBandMiley I have a 1” in diameter spot on my hand. I’ve been applying clotrimazol and been on the candida diet for a week now. It’s still spreading but it’s much less flakey and I’m surprised and the results this fast
Started AGAIN yesterday. I feel WAY better already!
@@imthirstyh2o330 Turns out it wasn't only antifungal cream I was given like I thought. The doc was giving me steroid creams.... stronger and stronger each time they wouldn't work. After 2 months of that I stopped on my own as I was getting rashes on my hands and feet. Then sadly, skin on my penis thinned out. Now I can't have sex or jack off again. So now I just want to get shot in the head or have a huge heart attack. They say a few people heal, but even then it takes at least 3 MONTHS to regain thickness and firmness of the penis again. I can't believe a licensed doctor didn't take me off STRONG STEROID CREAMS after 14 days like they are legally supposed to. I had no idea I was taking drugs and no idea I was supposed to be off them after 14 days. I just want to have a heart attack and die, this is definitely not the life someone should live, especially when they got over 60 years left to live!
Ok. This is overwhelming. I’ve read so many articles, I watched so many videos by different doctors… and they all contradict each other.
Yes to Starchy food, No to grains! Yes to grains (buckwheat and millet), no to starchy food!
Yes to sauerkraut! No to Sauerkraut!
The only thing they all agree on is No to Sugar.
yup, its a huge headache
The constants are cut out sugar, eat high protein/low carb diet and increase bitter foods including garlic, ginger, kale. Increase probiotics and and fermented foods.
@@mlklotusmann6749 The main problem I see with this set of steps & items is that some of them are high in histamine & I need to stay away from them or I get other flareups :/
Barbara Onei’ll is her namne. And you wanna be aware of the die off effect, that actually make symptoms worse when you are killing what you don’t want in there.
@@mlklotusmann6749 Actually if you have leaky gut or histamine issues, fermented is very bad. High protein is also very bad unless you're eating high animalfat with it.
There's contradicting info on things depending on possible health issues
Thank you. I’m literally crying as I’m taking all your suggestions down. Thank youuu I will keep you posted. I’ve been dealing with this for 12 years with breaks here and there when I’m able to luckily balance my meals, stress and sleep. I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems people like me with childhood trauma tend to get these symptoms the worst or most. I’ve been working on myself so much to finally realize successful people don’t find themselves, they choose to be successful. I don’t know how to choose to get rid of these symptoms, but I choose to do as much research as I can until I can connect with someone who knows what I need. We’re all different and I pray you all find what you need too!
me too suffering from same condition as u are..
And did it help???
It always makes me so sad as well, how people with so much pain end up so sick. So much pain led me here. It's so much work to reverse sickness. I wish you the best, I hope it's going well 😊
@@hcure4003 wish you the best too! When I go through extreme stress, for some reason, I get really sick and lose appetite for like a week. Broths and the BRAT diet help me regain my strength.
Liquid IV packs in lemon flavor help, room temp water only, no cold drinks, no caffeiene, no acidic foods, avocados and steamed veggies helped too… 🩷🩷🩷 hope you all are doing well!
@@MonicaElena310 it's crazy how much stress alone can do. Deep breathing exercises seem to help me a lot. My body loves steamed veggies too! And also room temp drinks only (or warm). Strangely I get more hungry when I'm stressed, like I'm tempted to stress eat 😣 Thank you! hopefully I'll get there sooner than later :)
day 4 on the candida diet. Not eating sugar by day 3 gave me a massive headache, but I'm pushing through!
One year later, how did you do on the candidas diet avoiding sugar?
I was able to do it for two weeks and it definitely made a difference in my skin- I get cystic acne.
I do not take as much time to cook healthier meals every single day and do eat a fair amount of wheat. I definitely need to do this diet again and commit to ditching dairy/wheat
@@Haruzumakii do you have candida now
@@Haruzumakii After getting leaky gut & then autoimmune intoI to gluten & grains I had no choice but to stop all grain carbs & even sugar. When you HAVE to, it's easier to quit. I couldn't do it before this happened so it was easier.
I did it for a month last year and felt great afterwards. Now I have to do it again 😢. Hoping this time I figure out what I don't need to pick back up eating again.
Thank you for posting this. I am trying to be a positive force for change. I have been battling epilepsy since a car accident about 10 years ago. I am eating ketogenically as and adjunct to seizure medication and feel much better! It is a challenge, because I am also trying to eat vegan for spiritual and personal reasons... I am sure I had an ongoing systemic candida infection! I am just now being treated for partial complex seizure disorder and and seeing positive differences in my life. I am actually making TH-cam videos on the subject of my battles with TBI, epilepsy and myeloma. I am on a constant search for how to inspire others to change their thinking. This is well needed!

Candida its my root cause of my anxiety. I wana cry now afterd years of struggle with anxiety
Guess what, your fears are well founded, there is a new medicine resistant strain of fungis called candida aurous its deadly and found in hospitals and areas where people live and are in large amounts one out of 3 people will die from this.

Which one did you use
Mucho thanks!
Altogether?
Great video Josh. You mentioned the 'best kept secret' is to treat the spleen, in my clinical experience I'd say it's "identifying and treating the stressors" in your life. Stress undermines adrenal and thyroid function, and once cortisol and TSH become compromised your immune system goes south - increasing the likelihood of immune acute responses, allergies, auto-immune issues and eventually cancer. Most chronic candida cases that are unresponsive will have adrenal fatigue underpinning them, I've found this after treating Candida in the clinic for nearly three decades. I think you docs that focus on TCM tend to call it "kidney weakness". Second point is you may like to mention- if the candida patient can't stop alcohol (the WORST carb with Candida) until they recover (not even one drink a week) they may as well stay with their medical doctor and remain on drugs for symptomatic relief.
Exceptional comment -

This is the best and most informative video I have watched on Candida-- all in just 7:28 minutes!!
I once had what the doc said was Bell’s Palsy and told me my face would remain like that forever. I had seen an ENT years before for a very bad ear infection and remembered him mentioning yeast so I started researching. As a result, I only ate lean meat and vegetables, and I cut everything else out. One week later I started getting my sensation back where it had been numb. Three weeks later, my face was all better. I couldn’t believe how well I felt, even my adhd symptoms drastically improved.
Thank you ♥️
I was diagnosed with esphogeal candidiasis. I have all these symptoms except instead of gaining weight, I’ve lost quite a bit. The fatigue has been miserable and stiff neck. Great video, lots of helpful info!

Doctors dont do anything here u have to heal yourself :/
@@YeshuaIloveuuu I’m sorry your going through such a rough time. One thing I found that fixed my problem is to consider Iron supplement. I was anemic and my low blood cell production coincided with the fungal growth. Flucanozole will only make it go away temporarily. To fix the underlying problem maybe consider all the diet and nutrition options that you can. Best of luck!
I hate to say but you’re going to die if you get Dysphagia... you’ve been warned
Dr. Axe can you please create a video that helps with the horrible side effects of coming off sugar/grains? I do have systemic candida issues. All your steps make sense (although i add Goldthread (berberine substance)); however, sticking to it, through a detox, is crazy difficult and any ideas to help the discomfort through the first 5 days would be awesome.
Only thing I disagree with is ACV...I did everything else recommended but only when I stopped using Apple cider vinegar is when I stopped having yeast issues 👍🏽
Makes sense. There is yeast in vinegar unless it is distilled.
This channel helps me get back on track with my health.
just found this while watching other videos on your channel. I am already making these changes, but I thought it might be a good watch. I'm amazed right now! A couple years ago, my spleen was enlarged, and every so often it happens again, and is very painful. I was also told that I had a mild yeast infection at the time. Seemingly unrelated, but today it suddenly all made sense! Thank you!
Ive been wondering why im supporting my liver but my spleen keeps paining and the spleen reflex on my foot keeps hurting. Thanks for explaining why Dr Axe. You're awesome!
Saccharomyces boulardii is very helpful for candida and other intestinal problems.

I have also been taking activated charcoal and diatomaceous earth. Helps me clear out the parasites, as well. Also, helps me with the detox process.
If you have Candida, Mercury anagrams fillings in your teeth can cause it. They are highly toxic and I cannot stress enough how sick they can make you feel. I've been suffering from it lately and I’ve never felt so sick in my life!! If you have the mercury fillings, Please get them removed! Wishing you the best during your detox. XOXO.

Hi, I have been suffering with Candida in my mouth and got it in my toe nail- I thinks it’s in my gut too as I get acid reflux and can’t digest my food, feel achy and heaviness in body and bloated stomach and back pain - I also have IBS alternating constipation and Diarrhoea - I really need help as I have been feeling fatigued - there is no real treatment out there - now I have started taking probiotics and have ordered capsules of oil of oregano- dr axe I have the exact symtoms you have described in your video on Candida - I will try all diet you have suggested - thank you so much for that video
@Reeta Abbi- a little baking soda and lemon in water, helps with acid reflux.
FYI if you're allergic to bees be careful with manuka honey or any raw unprocessed honey. I didnt know before I tried manuka and had a reaction that sometimes it can happen. I've had other unprocessed honeys but the manuka I got made my throat a little tight & mouth itchy! So use caution if you have a bee allergy.
Really surprised you recommend Manuka honey. Being a kiwi we already use it topically on wounds etc but friends who are beekeepers feel it does little for internal health. However another wee gem on the honey world here is honey dew honey which I use daily. It’s had two insects processing it so it’s full of polysaccharides and does wonders for my hay fever. Also I personally couldn’t have barley tea thanks to it not being a gluten free grain.
I just read on another site that had knowledge of Chinese medicine and it said that the spleen requires warm foods. So I'm glad that he said consume warm foods as a confirmation.
Already practicing keto, so because of this, I won't worry myself.
Watching this KNOWING I need a candida cleanse while eating a mini snickers 🤓
😂
I am a fifteen year old living in the UK who has self diagnosed herself with a candida overgrowth, IBS and PCOS who has frequently been to the doctors asking for a diagnosis which has always ended in a "youre fine. just take some anti-biotics" and "youre too young to make a diagnosis on, youre a teenager and many things happen to your body at that time" like wtf? you want to diagnose me when im 18 where it would most definitely become worse, to the point where i could be on the verge of catching diseases from this fungus? AND GUESS WHAT. after months of visiting and having myself to explain my self diagnosis, they actually came to a fucking realisation that what i had been saying all this time is not bullshit. This is why i dont trust my doctors and tend to research more upon my problems.
But then again, whats the point? whats the point in going to a doctor when you know that there is actually no specific cure but just remedies upon remedies that are in store for you that you will have to eventually adapt into a daily routine. I mean i suffer from stress eating due to extreme depression, mostly from foods that candida loves and you expect me to stay like this forever? I doubt I will ever truly overcome this candida problem but this video was a great help anyway. Damn why cant there be more doctors like you lol
(btw in no way did i intend to offend Dr.Josh Axe, just expressing my thoughts that have been long kept inside)
I understand what you are going through. I've been dealing with candida for years n have to study for myself. Prayers for you 🙏 in Jesus Mighty Name !
well said young lady ,never trust normal doctors ,
Agreed it’s the reality the doctor only want medicate you for life.
How are you doing now? Any improvement?
Thanks for this information on Candida Dr. Axe. I've suffered with this for over 35 years. It's not completely gone and I think that how I contracted leaky gut but thanks to you and your products, I am getting better. I have been gluten-free, sugar-free and dairy-free for over 30 years. for the last year I have been grain-free.

How are you doing noe
Oregano oil for 2 weeks and then you give yourself a break and olive leaf tree extract antifungal and great at killing off candida as well. The olive leaf is more of a supplement so you can take that for a while just make sure you're taking healthy probiotics. And definitely follow his advice avoid anything processed that includes sugar it's going to probably give you a detox side effects but man is it worth it at the end to feel better

joodytenshi did it work for you?
How did you eat or take the garlic? You don't mention that, that is the worst part of it?
Garlic doesn't cure candida, it just goes into the blood and creates a pseudo-metabolism. People are slaves to garlic/onions and when they eat it they become like mindless robots, going to work and back without feeling any emotions, and working long hours without feeling anything in their bodies. Garlic eater = docile human that is easy to control.

Our son is always getting what seems like strep but it doesn't test out as strep. I'm thinking it must be candida overgrowth. White coated tongue and throat, always tired, sore throat too. He does consume a lot of processed foods and sugar. Also he recently started working the night shift and his circadian rhythms are all out of whack. He'll sleep for like 16 hours.
About bitter foods; Would Dandelion qualify? I have a lot of those in my yard and every spring I harvest the fresh young plants and eat them in salads, The older plants get tough and VERY bitter. I also wonder whether dandelion root tea might be helpful. PS I never use pesticides on my grass.

I CURED MY CANDIDA OVERGROWTH. I HAD VERY BAD CANDIDA OVERGROWTH. EVERYTIME I WOULD EAT SOMETHING THAT CONTAINED SUGAR I WOULD BREAK OUT VERY BADLY ALL OVER MY BODY. I TRIED EVERYTHING INCLUDING GOING VEGAN. AND THE VEGAN DIET DID HELP REALLY WELL BUT AS SOON AS I ATE SOMETHING AND ANYTHING WITH SUGAR IN IT THE NEXT MORNING I WOULD BREAK OUT BADLY.
HOW I CURED MY CANDIDA: CANDIDA OVERGROWTH IS A RESULT OF HEAVY METAL TOXICITY AND I WENT TO MY DOCTOR TO CONFIRM THIS THEORY. IT SHOWED THAT MY MERCURY LEVELS WERE 9.9 WHEN THE SAFE LEVELS ARE 2. I WENT ONLINE AND ORDERED ZEOLITE TO CHELATE THE HEAVY METALS IN MY BODY. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH ON ZEOLITE I WAS WAY DOWN IN MY HEAVY METAL LOAD. AND AT THAT POINT AND NOW FOR MORE THAN A YEAR I CAN EAT WHATEVER I LIKE TO EAT INCLUDING CHOCLATES AND CAKES AND DRINK SODAS AND HAVE NO BREAKOUT WHATSOEVER. CANDIDA OVERGROWTH IS A RESULT OF A HEAVY METAL OVERLOAD.
I ALSO RECOMMEND BUYING GROUNDED CORIANDER AND CHILANTRO POWDER AND DRINKING THAT BEFORE BED TO SPEED UP THE CHELATION PROCESS. PERSONALLY I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE MEDICAL CHELATION PROCESS BECAUSE IT HAS SOME POTENTIAL NASTY SIDE EFFECTS.
HOW:
I DID ONE SCOOP OF ZEOLITE 2-3 TIMES A DAY FOR A TWO MONTH PERIOD. I ALSO HAD ABOUT 500ML OF WATER MIXED WITH GROUNDED CORIANDER AND CHLORELLA POWDER IN THE EVENING TO SPEED UP THE REMOVAL OF HEAVY METALS.
MY BRAIN FOG CLEARED UP, MY SWEATING WENT AWAY ( BUT IT DOES COME BACK SOMETIMES IF I HAVE EATEN LARGE FISH SEVERAL DAYS IN A ROW BECAUSE OF THE HEAVY METALS THEY CONTAIN ESPECIALLY FARMED FISH), BREAKOUTS GONE ETC
GOOD LUCK GUYS!
It was not only sugar. It was also fish, meat including chicken, potato and other starchy foods and any foods that contained sugar also in the form of fructose. To my knowledge there are three ways of chelating heavy metals
1. The natural way by using for example cilantro and chlorella in conjunction
2. Going to the doctor and using chemical based chelation
3. Zeolite
Zeolite attaches itself to heavy metals including mercury which we are being poisoned with through the foods we consume and fish is especially high on the culprit list. I say choose which ever way fits your preferences but do your own research. There is little doubt at least my mind based on my experience and the experience of many that Candida overgrowth is based on heavy metal toxicity. And you get can heavy metal toxicity by having amalgam fillings like I had when I was in my teens, you can get it through consuming fish (the fda now recommends eating fish a maximum of 2 times per week). If you absolutely love fish and cannot live without it try to stick to the smaller kinds and supplement with selenium as selenium aids in the non absorption of heavy metals.

You have done good research. That is for sure! Did you have candida overgrowth and if so how did you neutralise it? I'm speaking from personal experience and from a perspective of someone who finally managed to beat what was a very bad case of candida overgrowth.
For a second I thought you were here to misinform. I can tell you from first hand personal experience that zeolite does chelate heavy metals. You are right about the fact that the bigger fish contain more mercury, but the issue is also that 75% of all fish is farmed and the absolute worst is Norwegian salmon. If you must eat farmed salmon then I recommend the Irish salmon. They write that it is organic but I please remember that organic is not the same as wild. It just means that they take greater care in how many fish are kept per square foot, what kind of feed the fish get etc. If you want to watch a good documentary on the fishing industry here is a good one: th-cam.com/video/RYYf8cLUV5E/w-d-xo.html
Not only are they propping the fish with mercury and hormones in most cases but also with something called ethoxyquin which is a known carcinogen in many cases. You can keep the fish in as clean water as you want but if you feed them with known carcinogens and mercury ladden fish feed the result will be the same. It turns out the company that is producing and putting this carcinogen into the fish feed is you guessed it our old friend MONSANTO. The same company that is putting other carcinogens into our foods via their pesticides, They were just ordered to pay 289 million dollars to a customer who got cancer from one of their pesticides.
Again if there are other methods that are natural and proven I think that is wonderful. I must emphasize proven as I spent hundreds of hours and hundreds of dollars trying out many different diets and methods until I did a mercury test. Once my mercury levels were reduced the candida overgrowth issue went away. So my first advice to anyone trying to find a solution to an issue is see if you can find someone who has had success before you. If they have and if it is SAFE then you should consider giving it a go. I"m not a medical doctor so you must take this as a friendly use of the freedom of speech and as coming from someone who wants to help others along the way with Love. I have used zeolite and when combined with Cilantro, Chlorella and lots of water it did wonders for me. Peace and Love
Thanks!
Omg... you speaking facts!! What about small fish like sardines or shrimp? Do you think those add to heavy mental aswel? And also what about the grains/beans and fruits? Thanks
@@wer1838 which brand of zeolite and chlorella and how much cilantro and chloreaala per day?
Hey Dr.Axe! First I want to say, YOU ARE AWESOME! My question is, what do you think about using Monkfruit Sweetener, I was a big user of brown sugar, now I switched to Monkfruit Sweetener.
If you know you have a candida overgrowth, You need to avoid anything made with yeast. That would definitely include apple cider vinegar, vinegar, beer, wine, alcoholic beverages of all varieties and sugar. Even most baked goods have a yeast to make the bread or cake rise. And once you make some progress, you have to fortify the gut flora with probiotics to keep the territory that you liberated from being re-infected by the opportunistic Candida Albicans.
Apple cider vinegar?
@@rrastamarian all fermented foods have some yeast in some degree
What is the best probiotics for candida?
Thank you so much! You have been such a blessing! I share your videos with my family all of the time! Thank you again!
Thank you so much. I get so exhausted all the time, sometimes are worse than others. I can go out one day feeling bad, the next I'm bed rideen. this makes so much sense. I know I have Candida, I have the signs. If i eat choclate, I feel terrible the next day. my tongue tases terrible, and my breat smells.
What about fruits?
Doctor, I'm confused. I've read that although kefir and kombucha are great for natural probiotics in our system, candida feeds from fermented foods, such as kefir, kombucha, beer, etc. Is that true?
Yes as some one says may be eating more yogurt will help on this
Thank you Dr Axe, for the info. I felt like you respected my time by getting right to the point, sharing exactly what was on your mind, not waiting to the end and telling me i had to buy your 15 dollar book to learn what you meant by your title. you subtly referred to your website and only on a popup wanted to sell something but I didn't feel guilted or scared into having to click on it if I wanted to live another day. I like your style, easy to listen to and no pressure information. because you didn't pressure me to go look at your site, I just might go there simply because I don't feel like it will be a trap.
The diet is hard to do when your used to eating whatever you want. Especially if you have to feed / cook for your family. What is the most important things to do to start with?
Kefir is great for your digestion.
Probiotica fight to candida bi eating ol the shugger.

I just found out about Candida! I have had diarrhea for over 10 years. I have gas all the time, bloating, fatigue, and rash on my forehead. I gotta try this because the doctors have no idea whats wrong with me.
How are things now
@@احمداشرف-د4ن6و I still have Candida. I got lazy and have diarrhea all the time again.
@@AaronShaunBrennan why you didn't take antibiotics i will do it what is your opinion
@@احمداشرف-د4ن6و i took medication but it. Ame back after a week. I will try again once i get insurance again.
Some very nice tips, especially the lesser known ones like supporting the spleen with barely tea. But a very important step was missed even though it's not food related. Aerobic exercise is very helpful to reducing candida since candida love anaerobic environments.
Hi can hiit exercise replace it?
@@gargiganguly5076 I would assume so if your HIT gets your heart rate and oxygen levels up. It's not something I've read specifically, but I would think that the principals are the same.

Butter nut squash and sweet potatoes 🍠 and barley tea Kim chee apple cider vinegar kale 🥬 and NO SUGAR 1 GOT IT !!
Squash has lots of seeet I m surprised he said that also lentils etc
How about coffee? I have been dealing with Candida for many years. I have cut out sugar and grains. I do love my 1/4 cup of coffee in 3/4 cup fresh made coconut milk every morning. I don’t add sugar. Is this ok?
thank you dr.Axe.. this diet Protocol is really amazing! it worked on me.. while no other advices were effective.. it makes sense.. just need to be super focused on this diet...this is hard but not impossible.. thank you again ✌✌✌
Dr Josh - I know this is a old video but maybe you’ll see this question- maybe 22yr old daughter lost her Spleen in a car accident where many of her organs were punctured. What should she do more of or what can she take to prevent problems in the future? Thank you!!
How long should one stay on this diet?! I am very into fitness and I am also a college student eating in a cafeteria so without grains I feel like I won't have enough energy to walk around campus or get through my workouts. After seeing a chiropractor, she muscle tested me and said I could eat quinoa, brown rice, and ezekiel bread so I was just wondering what you thought about that?
Yes, this is helping me! I'm using honey more
I listened to Fit Life TV podcast called "DIY 48 Second Test for Candida." The gut expert is Christa Arrechio who states fermented foods FEEDS Candida. So who is right and who is wrong?
Take probiotics while taking antifungal? Thought they should be taken after cleansing
This is what I do. I take the antifungals with parasite cleaners too, for three days, aggressively. Then I take bentonite clay first thing the following morning. THEN I take cold packed, high strain probiotics targeted for vaginal health. They work the best for us women.
Heard about you Dr.Axe at my friends birthday in S.A.And of course dear Dr Jordan.Bless you Dr.
Drink lemon water and apple vinegar while your stomach is empty. And add garlic to your yogurt. You will see the results in a couple days.
How much of each ,how many times per day?
I don't believe that Apple vinegar is real in the stores.
thx DR. AXE. You re THE BEST! You re my hero...Im glad I ve found your video ! GOD BLESS YOU DR !!!
Are you recovered
@@areeshabutt3204 LOL
@beading tutorials did you heal your candida?
Do you eat buckwheat
@@mariasaucedo5378 I too am curious if this works. I have suspected that I may have candida or some kind of fungal overgrowth for a while now. I have been dealing with digestive issues for years, I have a white coating on my tongue, small little bumps on my skin in some places, and a rosacea looking rash on my cheeks. I just don’t know what to eat if I cut out more foods than I already have like gluten, dairy, onion, garlic. I have only drank water with the exception of some protein shakes for years now. I am a pickier eater by nature and would not choose those sour and bitter foods, like sauerkraut. I do eat cinnamon though. But I worry about the advice to cut out all grains, does that include oatmeal, brown rice? How and where will I get enough fiber?
I'm a little confused, we should support the spleen by drinking barley tea, which contains gluten, but eliminate grains from diet. Wouldn't the tea possibly trigger gut issues??
Can you please tell how high the probiotics should be a day?
Hi Dr. Josh, recently i was diagnosed with pulmonar cryptococosis. And my pneumologist prescribed me Fluconazol 400/day, but after take it for 1 month, i started to have heart problems, and i stopped take it. Thanks,

I am suffering from yeast infection from 5 years and I want to get rid of this but Being an Indian its quite difficult to eliminate grains from diet as these are our main food. So please suggest some diet that can replace grains.
Rachael Rutten Yap doing that but stopping intake of rice and all purpos flawr is quite difficult
Rachael Rutten I need a person like u who have the same experiance just mail me at happyrk210@gmail.com
Rachael Rutten how ro get releif from eaching
same here.. i started getting rid of rice. Just meat and fish and some green leaf. I feel bettet when i eat these foods alone but sometimes I get so weak that I need to eat rice. Sometimes eating meat alone makes me sick like i wanted something else. and i crave for sweet foods and cold drinks which i know i should not.
Miss Philippines Yeah u r right and I belong to India form a region where rice and pulse are the primary food and it is so familar that rice is eaten two times a day.But I totaly want to eleminate it but I don't even know whhat is the replacement of this?? Should I have wheat flour or oots because it is not possible to eat only fish or meat daily
i have a sugar addiction :(
***** that would happen when you consume a lo of sugar turns into yeast

Thank you for the timely advice. Are jungle oats and brown bread , and fermented milk also bad for Candida?
Add vegetables and starchy carbs 2:55 …. Shouldn’t we be avoiding starchy carbs if we have a candida overgrowth? Was this a misread on your part?

Mood swings
Peristant bad breath
Vomiting yellow and green color. Anxiety,.... The list goes on and on.
How are you now? Did you get rid of it?
🥲I'm getting off sugars. As a last resort 😭I hope it helps doc 🙏
thanks for information
Hi I eat no sugar or gluten or alcohol for quite a long while and still have systemic candida including thrush on my tongue. Its very discouraging
I thought the title said how to cure Canada in 6 steps... just made me realise how much sleep I need rn 😴
You said eat sweet potatoes for the spleen, but does the starch makes it worse for Candida?
In 2010 I did a 21 day green juice fast and all of my tinea versacolor improved but not completely gone. Also all the joint pain left. I had so much energy. I believe I had candida and it was causing those symptoms. If you think you have candida try a green juice fast then work on eating a plant based diet.
I’m working with a Biological Dentist and when I told her I know I’ve been struggling with Candida for probably close to two decades, she said that I really need to cut out all sugar. I don’t eat processed sugar. I eat raw, local honey. I eat less than a tablespoon, and not even every day. Another thing is I was told to stay away from starchy foods with Candida. I’m so confused. I also eat raw milk yogurt and drink raw milk. Is this something I should stay away from too, dairy? Even tho it’s not crappy store bought milk?? I really need this to be gone once and for all. Not sure I’m clear on when to start introducing different foods back in tho. I don’t want to be afraid of eating for the rest of my life either…. 😒😣☹️

Thank you for the video =) . I don't see why using natural antifungals is not generally recommended. From my experience, if the infection is severe and very long term, natural antifungals are super important. What are the reasons that they are not recommended or not for longer period of time?
I've used tea tree essential oil and is dangerous, at least for me, it can be harmful for the gut flora.
hey Dr Axe do you think enzymes have anything to do with alleviating acne? I feel like digesting the food properly is more associated with enzymes rather than the actual food you ingest.
Once candida is gone, do I have to always be on a low carb diet? I generally follow the Mediterranean Diet and LOVE that way of eating. Will I be able to go back to that once the candida is gone, or with the MD make candida come back?
Thank you for the tips. Would home made dry granola be considered grains? What is your take on oatmeal. Should we be eating it?
Also add dandelion root tea 🦋♥️
