I attacked with mostly with low carb. I also took caprylic acid and some kind of tea (can't remember the name) that was an herbal antifungal. (We're talking about 10 years ago I did the anti-candida diet) I tried several different things, but I think staying on Induction for about 2 months was the best thing I did. The die-off symptoms flared up from time to time for probably the better part of a year. It was tolerable. I say it's gone because four years ago I got talked into going on a 'healthy' diet--you know the high complex carb, minimal animal protein kinda thing with soy, tofu, etc. While I ended up abandoning that diet because it made me diabetic, I did not get a return of the symptoms of candida (just the symptoms of severe insulin resistance). Being diabetic now I pretty much have no choice but to stay on low carb for the rest of my life, so those wretched little candida buggers will never bother me again!
