@@Manota7adyat did you see the data that said that you brush your teeth after you eat and you will have a significant reduction? Learned that I’m gonna bring a really good mouthwash to work and at least try to do that if I can’t brush my teeth and also change your toothbrush out to new one..
Good info. Many don’t realize the “healing crisis” that occurs when detoxing and cleansing from Candida overgrowth, or even an overall cleanse that can be intense. This can also occur when eliminating simple carbs and feeling miserable including lack of a good sleep. A healing crisis can last for days, weeks, or months contingent on present health condition. This sends many back to their original diet thinking that this healthy change is not for them. It takes quite a while to get your body in a bad state of health so sometimes it takes a while to get it back to a good state of health or “homeostasis“.
This is why it is important to do so in a sustainable matter. Because if you're not careful, people will hear the message you are saying here and end up ignoring actual signals that something is harming them. What people should do first is find a stable gut situation, miserable as it may be, and then start supporting their body's ability to handle stress. Take B vitamins. Try to do some basic exercise. Just as simple as going on a walk. Stuff like that. Because the thing they're about to embark on is very difficult. Then go about it SLOWLY. And listen to your body and try to learn what it feels like if you're going too fast. This is actually one reason why probiotics is often so helpful for people. Because it's a very slow gradual change that enables you to fight back over time. I'm not saying go so slowly that you can't tell a difference. I'm saying go slowly so that you can pay attention to and listen. So your body can learn what pain is good and what pain is bad. Your sort of intellectual side is really really going to want to narrate and categorize everything, but it needs to learn to go slow and listen to the rest of the system. Do not go hurting yourself or making yourself miserable pointlessly because you think it's healing. I learned this the hard way so many times.
@@chettlar212 its pretty good you trying to help but you got no healing exprerience ,, its normal to find it hard since real healers are rare and people dont know they exist or existed or great NDs
1. diet and lifestyle - do not stress about food. Exercise is always recommended. 2. probiotics 3. reset and rest with the elemental diet 4. herbal anti microbial or prescriptions
cabbage salad everyday❤ we need to help heal the stomach with probiotics, green food, the body with vitamins and rest without stress, we need to bring the body back into balance
Don’t think of it as healing the gut. It’s more accurate to say correcting improper Gut Ph. Most people who suffer from candida have stomach acid that is too alkaline.
@@BlackPawK9yup it starts w stomach remedies like histamine receptor blockers or proton pump inhibitors and the acid just becomes way too low. I know. This is what happened to me. I was never able to land on the right diet even with food diaries and elimination diets I commented elsewhere in this video but I basically combined two kidney/thyroid healthy diets and was able to go off all stomach remedies and that and the diets improved my stomach pH and the diets and the improved pH started to heal everything else
Low carb helped me very good, no more blood pressure medication, no more almost daily diarrhea. sleep fantastic. No more fog in my head. Lost 16 kilos have great energy. Veel beter than I ever have.
well thats me subscribed!..im british and in Britain the treatment for candida is cream pessary and anti fungal meds that are horrible. ive had candida all my life so ive had a whole range of symptoms for most of my life, im sure people thought i was a hypochondriac...now im gonna do what this DR says ,,i found his explanation easy to understand and very informative. thankyou Dr.
I have gut disbiosis from gastroparesis (slow motility) and now have my first vaginal yeast infection. But I’m pretty sure it’s in my gut so if I take an antifungal prescription will it clear the vaginal fungus too ir just the gut? I would think it would help all of it but I have started Monostat for it today just in case. AND of course changing my diet !
@@DrRuscioDCdoc thanks for everything Do you think is necessary make test for SIBO or for another for example SIFO? If the answer is yes where I can do this? Thanks
@@DrRuscioDC You genuinely field the results of studies, and dont speak in idiot, as well as give the logic and process to your output of material. Yes, Subbed. Nice to see real sense in medical presentation. Shows you are not a textbook or pharma pusher. Thank YOU.
Esophageal fungal infection. Bypassed my mouth and throat . Diagnosed by endoscopy when I became unable to swallow and was experiencing center chest pain. Total of 8wks of intensive fungal treatment during which time I was put on an extremely limited diet and lost 25lbs. Dehydration became a significant problem. A slender 76yo woman to begin, I seriously thought I was going to die. Afterwards, on a regular diet, I had 2mos of liquid diarrhea. It's now been 8mos since it started and have only been able to gain back 6lbs. Gastroenterologist said it is more frequent in people who use inhalers and nasal sprays which I was using as prescribed. Never again. I'll cough, sneeze and blow my 24/7 runny nose. That was some serious stuff!!! Now eat a cup of live culture greek yogur every morning.
The quickest way to rid your body of Candida is by drinking kefir whey everyday with a vitamin D tablet. Within one week you are clear. I know from personal experience and have kept healthy ever since. My family (including children) and friends are on the daily regime of whey. It stops uti’s , greatly benefits kidney health and kicks Candida into touch. Look up GcMAF for all the other benefits no one tells you about. Hippocrates and Galen advocated ‘the whey cure’.
Thank you so much for all of the information and obvious work you put into to this video to share with us. I wish that every doctor were as thorough and explain information as well as you have. Your patients are blessed to have you.😊
This is just the video I needed to see. I've been suffering with candida for a long time now. For most of the years I was in a deep brain fog and didn't know what was going on. So I simply ignored it and just continued eating badly, making matters worse. When my acid reflux got really bad, that's kind of when I took notice. Then eventually I started eliminating suspecting bad foods. And going for diet to diet, until I even landed at carnivore. I recently stopped carnivore and starting adding leafy greens back. After I realized I had possibly diverticulitis as well. I had to come to the realization, that dropping so many foods didn't help me eliminate candida. So I'm in the phase right now, where ever few days I'm resting a certain food. Because I started developing nutrient deficiencies where even my teeth started wearing down. So I figured I have to just find a balance with some of these carbs and also work on making sure in getting rid of waste in the body. Because it's got to a point, where not only was I constipated daily. But I wasn't even really ever sweating or getting rid of these toxins. Also working on my stress and anxiety as well. Because I still get that gut pain when I'm stressed. And that's one of the reasons for my overall gut problems.
I have been suffering with these symptoms for years, I am so grateful you are posting these videos. Could you tell us what probiotic you would recommend. I have tried many. I just don't know which are the most reliable. Thank-you, you give me hope. Sincerely, Lori
A very sane approach.Thanks! I like your advice to not get stressed and scared of food. I can't tell you how many time I have been scared of food! Also I agree...listen to your body...it knows what you specifically need.
I'm not scared of food. I'm scared of the end of the week when I release more waste than I even eat in normal bowel movements then get nauseous bloated with major head fog. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm sick every week!
Appreciate your wisdom, I have been dealing with Candida for a long time, it's time to get well again! Thank You - Lars Fraser, Vancouver Island, Canada
The herbals I take based on my research are Peppermint, high quality Turmeric (never together!), Black Walnut Wormwood Clove tincture, Pumpkin seed oil, Probiotics (obv. not an herbal) and Chlorophyll (liquid gel caps only). I'm going to be researching the elemental diet. Thank you!
its not enough . you need to fix your adrenals and pituitary , stomach acid , constipation and biofilm by detox it out and breaking it down if its oral use probiotics oral to get rid of it , and you need to use binders for toxins and a good gi broom , and starve it while maintain bowel movements 3 per day
I am glad I started listening to this info on candida. I’ve watched this and several vids on this subject. I started destroying my massive overgrowth and I feel so much better overall. The fungus nail I had is clearing up. It already is so much better. I am shocked. I’ve tried everything to get rid of fungus nail. Apparently it was candida the whole time. Not 100% gone but I only started diet and supplements 2.5 weeks ago. Nail is 90% clear. Shocking.
If it looks like a duck, cracks like a duck, it's a duck.... I had blood tests done by my integrative medicine doctor. She put me on various things to help the candida overgrowth. I have to disagree with a lot of what you're saying doctor. It's been life-changing for me. The first initial treatment of the pills that I was given didn't do a good enough job, but it was still life-changing in the sense that I could finally start eating things that usually gave me gout-like symptoms. Sleeping better, etc. A good regimen of a tablespoon of diatomaceous earth food grade, along with zeolite to take out toxins, four drops of oil of oregano everyday. Two capsules of clothes, two capsules of caprylic acid, and I have knocked this thing out of the park! Best results so far.
I’ve had success with a carnivore diet for my chronic candida. Meat also digests early in the GI tract, so perhaps that helps? I was 80% healed and then removing liquid dairy got me to 100%. I recently started eating a lot of cheese and it came back!
@@kkpaine yes, it came back. If I eat anything with any type of sugar in it, especially liquid dairy, it comes back. I have an immune deficiency & my body doesn’t keep it in check.
It’s interesting that you brought up tooth brushing. I’ve noticed that my candida rash on my chest is drastically better since I began tongue scraping with my tooth brushing routine. Total game changer. This just confirmed my thoughts.
I'm so glad you shared that! It's one thing to see it in the research but to get confirmation that it translates to a real world application and experience is awesome. I hope to get an oral health expert on in the future to discuss this link in more detail :)
Use coconut oil brusing teeth. A oral rinse machine. Hydrogen peroxide. Then floss. Chew on xyiltol. My gums are healing. Lots of candida in blood is from gums. Plaque. The gums het healthy with oils. Coconut oil works. Sesame oil. For inflammation clove oil. Turmeric in coconut oil brush swish w water after few weeks then do with Sal water in water tooth machine
I had some IBS and starting taking a teaspoon of olive oil a day for about 30 days, off and on and I dont even have to do that any more, no more painful bowel movements! There are herbs and foods like Kombucha, soukrout, kimchee, miso soup, herbs like peppermint, rosemary, sage, basil, fennel, astralagus, garlic and ginger that are antiviral and antifungal. Sometimes I just take garlic and ginger (small pieces) by mouth, and alternate the the garlic with tumeric applied topically then washed off my knees (due to the yellowing stain), helps with any knee arthritis. Just consult your Doctor because some of these are blood thinners and may interact. I do love blueberries for my immune system!
I've been told to chill wrt my daughters weight now that she is in remission. She is healthy in every other way and that is more important than all the weight she lost. The less I freak out about her weight normalising and taking my focus off what she eats, the sooner she will recover what's been lost. 😅 Very educational post again doc. We are so grateful for all the work and hrs you put into educating and entertaining us 🏅😄
Herbals worked well on gut a One with probiotics, but Not my mouth. Mouth is better each day until I eat anything, but even low sugar fruit. Only heal for one day then bad again. Enjoy happy gut but painful mouth.
This informative video was very interesting and not to feel guilty if there’s times when I may need to eat rice or potatoes as making candida worse very encouraging
Thank you so much, many of us have irritable bowels and are at a loss for answers. You gave some good incites for which I am very grateful. I was losing my meals a half hour after eating them, then I became dehydrated. Went to the hospital, they could find nothing. I was given fluids which cured the dehydration . Sent home! Many Doctors are not aware of , nor know how to treat Candida, leaky gut etc.
I think going Carnivore and adding some antimicrobial plants like oregano/garlic can help, as well as using things to add more acid with Apple Cider Vineger, Coconut Oil and making sure to get enough electrolytes.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video . Iv been to lots of doctors over skin issues that are geting worse candida is what was diagnosed but what they have tried doesnt seem to work for me
I've had a tongue problem for several months. I've been thinking it was candiasis all along. Tried several things. Rt now in CandAid. Worried it's lasted a long time. White to black to white tongue. I need help affording these excellent formulas. Thank you so much for confirming that herbals are better. CandAid has garlic, among others.
I take an inhaler for my lungs that has steroids. I found I was getting a white tongue and my throat was feeling weird. In researching I came across info that says you must rinse/gargle several times after using an inhaler to prevent thrush.
@maggiebodine206- From what l found, the body needs cleansing. You need to reach out to a naturopath. A black tongue indicates severe cleansing is needed. 🙏🏼
Dr you are freaking awesome!!! I have been subscribed to your channel for a while now. This is the BEST video on healing your body from Candida overgrowth I’ve ever seen! ❤️ I appreciate that you made it a point to specify you don’t need a low carb diet to re-balance the gut microbiome. I have struggled with Candida overgrowth for probably close to two decades! I have been working with a biological dentist for the past 6 months because my imbalance all stemmed from my oral health. And I’m not talking about brushing and flossing. If you were to talk to my old dentist he would say my oral health was perfect. I can’t say exactly what because this comment will just get taken down… 😒 I can say since having an oral procedure most of my symptoms have significantly improved. However, I know that the lingering effects are Candida. I make my own purple fermented sauerkraut and raw milk Kefir. I am also taking a soil based probiotic at the moment which I am almost out of and then I am starting the Saccharomyces Boulardii probiotic, 2 capsules a day. I am hoping with the fermented and cultured foods plus the added probiotic supplement I can really dig into this! I also do not eat processed foods. Whole and organic. I had been eating raw local honey in my raw milk yogurt which I will be cutting out I guess. I was also having maple syrup and raw cream in my coffee. I had cut coffee out for many months and just started drinking it again for the last couple weeks. I’ll be cutting that back out completely also. I want to make sure some raw dairy is ok because I’ve also seen where some say to cut out dairy completely too… 😑 Is the raw milk kefir ok to still drink? I blend strawberry, raspberry and blueberries in it, that’s it. I also have Oregano oil that I have used a couple times in the past because I saw Dr. Axe talk about it. I used it 3X a day for 14 days. 3 drops mixed in a tsp of coconut oil, morning noon and night. This may be TMI but I noticed what’s called, rope worms come out in my stool. I know they aren’t actually worms but wow! I can only attribute that to the use of the Oregano oil. I have also tried the 1 raw garlic clove a day. Chopped it up and let it sit for 10 min to let the alliinase release and then also took with coconut oil. I had to drink about a cup of water as soon as swallowing as it felt like it burned. The water made it to where it didn’t do that. With all of this said, I wasn’t really doing everything in combination and/or for a long enough period of time. I also make my own sourdough bread so that’s a no go. I will be keeping that out of my diet as well. How long would you say to do this regimen before trying to add different foods back in? 3-6 months? A year? I also make my own meat stock and drink that to help heal my gut. I couldn’t do bone broth before as it was too high in histamine and I would have reactions. My food intolerances are a lot better now tho since this oral procedure. A couple years ago I had tried the GAPS diet to heal my gut but that was before I knew about the oral connection, and it was SO low carb that I lost so much weight,(which I couldn’t afford to lose) that I felt like I was dying on that diet! 😒😣 I do however continue with the meat stock as it makes me feel really good. Sorry so long. I just wanted to share my story which I’m just scratching the surface. I’ve been struggling with debilitating symptoms since I got C in April 2021, 3 friggin years! Like I said, I am much better now but still need to tackle the Candida issue. Thank you so very much for all your valid information and I will sleep better at night knowing I don’t have to starve myself to re-balance my gut and Candida!! I sleep SO much better having some carbs! God bless you!! ❤🙌🏻
So I'm doing my own protocol for SIBO/candida. Not sure HOW long to do it though as what I'm doing contains pretty potent oils. And that's garlic oil pills/capsules, star anise oil, And oil of oregano. All have candida killing properties so I'm hoping all 3 together will do wonders and not work against each other possibly/or clash. Garlic and oregano oil will be earlier in the day around breakfest and star anise oil with water before bed. Starting tmw.
My doctor had me switch my alkaline vegan lifestyle to keto eating. I did the candida medicine already. I'm also using microdefense supplement from the health store. I also drink a non gmo organic detox tea everyday.
I incurred a 50k injury in 2007. None, zero, zilch M.D.s helped me. Only chiropractors. Another Deputy shared with me asyra computer system, created by a mayo clinic Dr & an electrical engineer. The Dr chose the 60,000 pathogens, fungus, bacteria, environmental toxins such as radiation, exhaust, smoke pollution, more. Each has it’s own frequency. So, eliminates human guessing feature, & allows 20 plus page report on many frequencies. Also checks for what will correct range to normal, diet, & emotional imbalances. That is why I switched to a superior system.
Yeee, I am your fan. From Siberia. And bought yesterday your book. In two versions - on Kindle and on Audible. Don't read it yet. But will. So, many thanks!
I am assuming my candida is in my intestines I have leaky gut too. I am taking biocidin , digestive enzymes for it and I bought your elemental heal too. The Rafaximin was 874 dollars . I can’t afford that. I didn’t get it either. I took flonconasole but it didn’t do anything Do you have any suggestions on what is good for this candida and high zonulin and leaky gut? thanks
How about healing candida, when you are on immune suppressing medicine, because you have Crohn's Disease? I never had issues with candida, until I started taking bio meds, to help me with my disease. Now it feels like a never ending cycle of candida and other symptoms linked to candida.
17:29 gets to the point Coconut oil, Ginger, and kimchi reduce candida. Avoid processed food. Question: is ginger tea as effective as whole ginger? Probiotics. So much talk about probiotics both pro and con. Wish we had definitive info.
I'm sorry you felt there was too much talk about probiotics. I try to present the research I find and allow people to make the decision for themselves. :)
This comment was rude to tell someone not only on their own channel but as a adult to get to the point and complain about the information given that this man doesn't have to do research on or share it with us is ungrateful and disrespectful some people want to know the information given you are not the only one watching this is for the world to get the information they need from it people don't realize the time not only filming editing and doing a lot of reading and research to bring correct information to the audience is if the information he is given isn't what your looking for then there are many other channels to watch or fast forward to the information you are looking for but to tell someone get to the point when you came to watch and learn from it is out of line I'm sadly disappointed how rude inconsiderate and intitled this world is no consideration how your comment could have affected his feelings luckily he seems to be a calm man some other video creator may not have responded as kind as he did just FYI. I appreciate any information I can get on these videos people don't have to make content for us to learn from if it's not what I'm looking for I move on. Thank you @DrRuscioDC
@akeleven You might look into, and seriously considering a diet that eliminates all wheat, sugar and processed foods completely. Eat 75% raw green leafy/cruciferous and definitely, do extended fasting. Work up to 36/72 hour back to back water fasts. Epigenetics is a thing, obviously. This protocol will help you prepare for the total collapse of the US economy and societal order the globalist oligarchs controlling our current government (traitor Biden and his handlers) have in store for Americans. Hope you get some wellness back. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8294624/
Thank you for breaking this down. Have you heard of Candidase supplements? If so, what do you think of it? (It's an enzyme blend of cellulase and protease. They claim cellulase breaks down yeast cell wall while protease digests the interior proteins).
I had IBS with explosive diarrhea and getting everyday and irritated colon. I had stool tests. Since I have diabetes 2 and hypertension. Asked God if could come from some thing I was taking the thought came to me BP medication. So I decided to stop it for a time to see. That was 12/23/2023 as of today 2/29/24 I have only had twice and not explosive and colon not sore. BP135-70-68 . I am 81 ; eat Keto. Med. Lisinopril-HCTZ 10/12.5MG Tablets. Maybe this could help someone else. It ended that day. Keto for 5 years.
This was so helpful. Thank you so much. I keep having recurring yeast infections on my skin (beneath breasts, etc) and I just realized it flares when I go off my low carb diet. I struggle with staying on it but I never saw the connection before this past week. I'm wondering though, on the avoid list of foods, it said starchy veggies and included potatoes. But then under encouraged foods, potatoes were there. What am I missing? I would love to be able to eat some healthy starches again. What is the elemental diet? That sounds like a nice reboot. I just got a bottle of pro and prebiotics. I'm ready to lick this thing. I bet I'll feel better than I've felt in years once I'm back in a healthy balance. Thanks again.
I think a major culprit here is most people that were raised on conventional foods. Especially meat and dairy that are not organic. We are constantly ingesting some level of antibiotic from this. Also the water supply. Our water has god knows how many traces of chemicals not to mentions chlorine and chloramines. It is really no wonder we have such gut imbalances. Compound this with other lifestyle factors and you have major overgrowths.
Major culprit is Sugar in everything!!! Even foods that don't require it, they put it in Have to be very careful and read ingredients Now they're putting GMOs in everything!😡
Dr. Michael. This was very informative. Thanks so much for all the information on this subject and the importance of a good diet for sleep and wellness. This channel is awesome!! 🤗
Because important to highlight efficacy and give the science behind it. If you blindly follow video advice without understanding the science behind it, you are putting yourself at risk.
I had constant yeast infections until my gyno finally told me that the yeast lives on the underwear and to either microwave or boil them. I decided just to wear unscented pantry liners. No more yeast infections.
Every time u pee and they look gross or are wet..after kids u leak unfortunately , being healthy and having a sexual relationship helps a lot with leakage and certain exercises, doctors during birth give appezatomies and dont stitch women back up😂
Great info! I’m so glad I found your channel. Weird question, where did you get your T-shirt? 😂 I have been searching for my husband and cannot find good t shirts.
Ive had chronic sinus issues for years. I keep reading it could be candida related. :( This was a very informative video and best one I have seen in a long time. Most I have seen say cut out ALL carbs but that is near impossible! I'm limiting to cutting out refined carbs. This morning I had porridge (oatmeal) steel cut, with blueberries and cinnamon. Splash of almond milk.
Wait, so avoid starchy foods like potatoes but encouraged to eat cooked potatoes. 🤨 Who eats raw potatoes? There are so many different diet variations with candida, it's hard to know what you can eat.
