I suggest you check out oregano oil.
Best wishes,

Subject: Re: CS>colds
I believe I have Candida, have been trying to get rid of it for
about as long as I have known about CS. Began serious use of CS
for that purpose, among others. The whole complex of symptoms of
long standing severe intestinal candida do fit me very well. I
have not only the direct GI symptoms, but the poor resistance,
the joint problems, arthritis, depression, lack of
concentration, etc. All of these have improved, but none is
"cured" by any stretch. Certainly the course of this cold shows
me that 2 years plus of EIS (CS) use has not improved or
strengthened my immune system whatsoever. For me EIS works by
killing pathogens, and speeding wound healing, but that is it.
No immune improvement. Once the darn bugs get in, they take time
to eradicate. However, bacterial secondary infections are no
longer a threat, thank god. Prior to EIS, those were the real
danger and the things that made me very ill indeed for months on
end of every year. Then I'd end up with conventional abx,
followed by a series of yeast infections, further lessened
resistance to the next cold or flu......it was a real vicioius
circle.
My experience in the past 2 years led me to believe and to say
that I couldn't see CS(EIS) making candida worse, but it
happened that during this cold when I was taking a quart or
more per day, faithfully every day, a few days ago I began to
have early symptoms of a typical female yeast infection. So as
it also didn't seem to be doing anything for the cold (the EIS
I was drinking, I mean) I cut back my daily intake of oral EIS.
Since CS has been shown to kill candida very quickly in test
tube tests, it is hard to know how this could happen.
Speculation: perhaps it kills bacteria in the body faster than
it kills yeasts and fungi in the body, thus actually removing a
check on the candida. Also with real overgrowth intestinal
candida, it is often said it becomes a very different organism
than the normal intestinal inhabitant yeast cells. Maybe that
form is much more difficult to kill than regular old candida
yeast in a test tube. Certainly, I have made improvement over
the last two years of EIS use, but am not free of intestinal
symptoms yet. One reason probably because EIS is said not to
get into the intestines in liquid form, so it can't do a very
good job of killing candida there in any case. Perhaps also EIS
in the blood just does not get at the places where candida
hides in the intestinal wall well either, so---no good contact
with the pathogen by any route.
At the suggestion of someone on this list, (sorry I've
forgotten who) I was going to try using a mix of EIS/DMSO over
the abdomen, to see if that would get the EIS into the
intestinal walls and tissues enough to help, but my sensitivity
to DMSO is great--can't really tolerate more than a 20%
solution. And I also found I get the characteristic DMSO body
odor very badly even from that. I have now finally gotten some
of the low odor DMSO from Jacob Labs, and was about to try it,
when this cold interrupted everything.
I thank everyone for their thoughts, suggestions, and
contributions, as well as having patience in letting me work
through this cold and what is going on by putting it all in
emails here. It is really hard to remember all the details and
explain them all in just one or two emails.
BTW, Sally, the GSE seems to have knocked out the yeast
infection symptoms already. (and I only took it orally :-) ).

Sol,
With your mushroom allergy, I'm wondering...could you have
candida? Sore throat coming and going, among other symptoms
could mean candida.
I had it and that's one of the reasons I can't seem to take
CS consistently. I seem to get candida symptoms from it. I
know some say it cures candida, but that hasn't been my
experience. Maybe they know something I don't. :o)
