7 Natural Antifungals To Beat Candida Overgrowth
Here are the seven natural antifungals that women over 50 are using to improve their gut health, boost their immunity, and finally (!) beat their Candida. Natural antifungals can really boost your defenses against Candida. Let's take a closer look and find the strongest Candida killers.
1. Caprylic Acid
Caprylic acid is a powerful treatment for fungal infections that works by interfering with the cell walls of Candida yeast cells.
Studies have shown caprylic acid to fight Candida as quickly and efficiently as prescription antifungals like Diflucan. (1)
Caprylic acid is a natural fatty acid that is found in coconut oil.
2. Berberine
Berberine is a natural compound that has antifungal activity against several types of yeast. It is sometimes used as an immune stimulant in treating colds and flu. (3)
You can find berberine in lots of different plants, including barberry, Oregon grape and goldenseal.
3. N-Acetyl Cysteine
NAC is an amino acid and a powerful antioxidant. It is formed naturally in your body from cysteine, which you get from protein sources like yogurt or chicken, but you can also find it in supplement form.
This antioxidant is a dual-purpose supplement that makes it a great choice for your Candida diet. Firstly, NAC is very supportive for good liver health. And secondly, it disrupts the protective biofilms that are created by Candida albicans and other pathogens.
4. Undecylenic Acid
Undecylenic acid is naturally derived from castor oil. Its organic fatty acid components prevent Candida albicans from forming the biofilms that it uses to hide from your immune system. (4)
Undecylenic acid can also be used topically as a treatment for ringworm and topical fungal infections.
5. Betaine HCl
Betaine HCl supports a healthy level of acidity in your gut. This protective barrier in your digestive tract is a crucial part of your immune system, killing off any potentially harmful micro-organisms that may be present in the food you eat. (5)
Betaine HCL is a form of betaine, a vitamin-like substance found in beets and other foods.
6. Garlic Extract
Garlic is one of the world’s most-researched herbs – and one of the most powerful! There’s a massive amount of scientific evidence supporting its use as an antifungal. (6)
The allicin in garlic can help to prevent fungal growth and even prevent the growth of various yeasts, particularly Candida albicans.
7. Olive Leaf Extract
Olive leaf extract contains an active antifungal named oleuropein. It also has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-parasitic qualities. (7)
This extract comes from dark green olive leaves. The extract is then standardized to maximize the amount of the antifungal compound oleuropein.
