Del, I also make and drink kefir, good to know that works for candida too. Didn't know about the xylitol, that certainly may be worth trying. I've been using stevia but not very often.
Oh my, some times those detox symptoms can be nearly as bad as the original problems. I often feel like I only have 1 or 2 good days a week...sigh...when will it all end? I've just started making CS so now I have another tool to help me overcome what dental work and poor eating has done to me. Thanks for the link...lots of good info.

I have cut out most sugar, since I now use Xylitol, which is supposedly deadly to Candida and fungus in general: "Dr. Ward Dean states that this sweetener is not metabolized by humans OR yeast: "Yeast gobble it up, thinking they're getting sugar, and die". I am also drinking 8 oz of raw milk kefir each day to deal with internal symptoms of candida, as well as taking several drops a day of olive leaf and oregano oil tincture (had some STRONG detox symptoms from that, which are still ongoing! Proves it's working.). However, once toenail fungus is entrenched, it is VERY difficult to get rid of. Dietary changes alone won't do it. You must kill the fungus. Colloidal silver never touched it at all, and all the other popular remedies were ineffective. The combination of DMSO and SSKI is the first thing I have used that appears to be killing it. DMSO drives the SSKI into the flesh and under the nail where the fungus lives, that is the key to it. It helped that I already had both DMSO and SSKI at hand. I do expect to lose the infected nails and grow new ones. This can take up to a year according to the article I read: : http://www.nearsightedness.org/doctors/doctors4.htm Del ----- Original Message ----- From: Sandy To: CS Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2009 12:50 PM Subject: CS>Toenail fungus [Del] Hi Del, I have the same problem as you. I've had toenail fungus more years than not and I've tried just about everything they recommend. I believe it doesn't matter what you do if you continue to eat sugar or anything fungus likes to feed off of. I have cut out all sugar and cut way back on animal protein...mainly eat raw fruits [but not too much] and raw vegetables. I am now using black salve w/DMSO and it seems to be doing something [?]. I also believe that when any of these things do work the new nail grows and the fungus leaves [is gone]. I'm not so sure about the nail sloughing/breaking off but anything is possible. Hope we both beat it this time.

DMSO and SSKI appear to be working. Question is, what should I see happening? I assume that the diseased nail dropping off would be a good thing??? Del
