I think oil of oregano tincture is really powerful. Grapefruit seed extract is good too but sometimes not compatble with certain ABX.
We use Oreganol brand oio of oregano. It is pricey tho.

Hey Pattiecake,

Silly question.

Is oil of Oregano the same as Oregano?
Thanks
Peace,
BJG

*******************************
YEAST/CANDIDA/FUNGUS CONTROL
*******************************

My husband and I have been battling systemic yeast/fungus, and these are the supplements that have worked for us. You don't need all of them all of the time. I've put them in the order of effectiveness, so you might want to work your way down the list, adding supplements every couple of days, until the overgrowth is controlled. (Nystatin has never worked well for me.)

I personally keep the yeast at bay with probiotics, Super Food, and grapefruit seed extract. If I eat too much sugary or starchy food, I have to temporarily add in the Garlinase.

Probiotics EVERY meal.
Each day we mix several brands, hoping the good bacteria will win.

A. Jarro-Dophilus EPS 60C from Jarrow (Our favorite**)
It doesn't need to be refrigerated, a plus if you have to go to work.

B. A few spoonfuls of live-culture, no-sugar yogurt with meals, to reach the upper GI tract.

Perfect Food Super Greens from Garden of Life
Recently, we've added this green powder, "The Perfect Food" from the Garden of Life, which is equivalent to eating 5-10 servings of vegetables. The thing that's great about it is that it seems to suppress GI tract yeast overgrowth, as well as providing immunity-boosting antioxidants.

Liquid Grapefruit Seed Extract
About 6 drops in a glass of water, once a day, or more, if thrush on the tongue gets out of hand. I use Nutribiotic GSE, but I think any brand will do.

Garlinase** 4000 from Enzymatic Therapy
Amazing at flushing out the fungus/yeast. Works MUCH better than Nystatin for us. Beware of a big die-off (i.e. diarrhea) when you first take it. Take one before bed, more if you have an outbreak. Garlic thins the blood, so make sure you're not mixing it with other blood thinners. This is processed so it doesn't give you stinky breath.

Yeast Fighters from TwinLab
Includes Lactobacillus, Garlic Bulb Extract, Caprylic Acid, and various other herbs.

Saccharomyces boulardii from Allergy Research Group
A friendly strain of yeast that hopefully will win the battle against Candida.

BEST PRICES
Vitacost.com seems to have the best online prices lately.

oil of oregano is made from wild oregano. I use the Oreganol brand that is sold in most (non-chain health food stores)

It is somewhat hot so dont get it on your lips or toung. Under the toung is fine. I usually wait 10 seconds then drink some water.

Typical price in stores is about 30.00 per 1/2 0z.

you may be able to find it cheaper online but then you'll pay shipping.

If you do a google search under oil of oregano, fungus and the other things you are concerned about you will get a ton of info.

It has been the best candida fighter for us.
