Candida is a very common problems which is characterised by overgrowth in the gastrointestinal tract with Candida Albicans.

Candida normally lives harmoniously in the body and is thought to proliferate when our immune system run down or the gut becomes damaged. People can feel sick all over, have digestive disturbances, food and chemical sensitivities.

Anti-biotic use is now considered to be a major causational factor in the development of Candida an could be attributed to the over use of these medicines. Although an essential part of savings lives can be over prescribed resulting in anitbiotic resistance.

Some dietary factors also contribute to the development of Candida overgrowth. Refined carbohydrates are eaten in excess in a our modern western world.

Foods containing sugar should be avoided, fruits sugars (juice), maple syrup and honey. High Lactose (Dairy) diets have also been cited as a contributor to the overgrowth of Candida.

Killing Candida is only part of the strategy, it should also combine the right diet as well as Gut Repair, Immune System Support and Liver Support / Detoxification.

How To Make Garlic Bombs

Add all ingredients in to a bowel and soak for 24 hours.

Eat 1 whole garlic clove each day with 1 teaspoon of the liquid. If you have a sensitive stomach/ heart burn this can irritate your gut as the vinegar is very acidic.
