The Best Candida Yeast Infection Treatment?

There is an effective treatment for yeast infection, albeit a bit one-dimensional treatment. Such Candida yeast infection is known as immunotherapy. In such particular treatment, patients suffering from yeast infection patients are asked to keep from eating basically every yeasty foods as well as sugary food. They are also given allergenic substance in dilute doses, typically in the form of oral drops or injection. This is to boost the immune abilities of one’s body as well as lessen the allergic response.

The method, also known as Enzyme Potentiated Desensitization (EPD), came about because of Len McEwen, M.D. (London) in the mid-60’s. The newest form of this treatment is known as Low Dose Allergens or LDA.

In such treatment, the yeast infection patient will receive up to three injections every two months and for a maximum period of two years. It depends on the response of the said patient to the therapy. The EPD treatment for candida yeast infection goes like:

For a period of ten days before the first injection, the patients are given Sporanox, which is an anti fungal for systematic candida, and De-Nol an anti- gastric ulcer agent that reduces the ability of candida to plant its roots in the mucus linings of the intestinal tract.

For around 3 days before you will be injected, patients will go through a semi-fast where they must stay away from the every food allergen combined with the intake of the following supplements that enhance the effectiveness of the EPD treatment: Zinc, Folic acid and Vitamin D3.

The response of the EPD treatment for candida yeast infection differs among patients. Some patients could actually experience sudden and dramatic improvement that would wear off in time, while others call for more doses through longer intervals until improvement will be maintained.

Either way, EPD cannot be used as a permanent solution to candida problems. Aft, EPD iser all a one-dimensional treatment that zeroes in on only the dietary and allergy reaction factor that would trigger the crazy growth of candida. The effects of EPDs will wear off in time. If you have known gut problems, bacterial infections, parasites or systematic candida, EPD cannot work.
