The first thing you need to do is cleanse the colon to ensure it is healthy and well functioning. Colon cleanse products are readily available at your health food store. Colon cleansing can be done from 2 to 6 weeks and some alternative health providers recommend up to three months. Colon cleansing has been practiced for centuries as a healthy way to rid your body of built up toxins. These toxins are a result of unhealthy eating, pollution, pesticides, stress and over or under eating.

Next, it is important to take an anti-fungal supplement such as oregano oil or grapefruit seed extract. This is what actually kills the candida. Follow the directions on the label. Typically you will start with one capsule for a few days and then gradually increase the dosage up to 5 to 8 capsules a day for approximately two weeks.

After these initial two weeks, start taking a probiotic, which you will find at your health food store. Probiotics are dietary supplements that contain beneficial bacteria or yeasts, such as yogurt which states, "contains live cultures."

Additionally, take a psyllium or fiber shake daily. You can actually combine the oil in Step 2 to this shake to make it easier. The psyllium acts much like a sponge, absorbing waste as it moves through your digestive tract and thereby emptying the bowels.
