Dr. Ivker's Candida Protocol
Fungal sinusitis can be a very challenging condition to treat, chiefly because candida organisms can be very aggressive and tend to mutate. That’s why it usually requires a committed effort for at least 3 months. It is essential to closely follow the full program for 90 days to eliminate the candida overgrowth and restore a healthy balance of beneficial bacteria throughout the body. Read below for full details on the first 30 day implementation of the Candida Protocol.
If you’ve scored high on Quiz for Fungal Sinusitus,
follow these steps:
- Begin this 90-day candida plan.
- Closely adhere to the Candida Control Diet for at least the first 21 days. Then, follow the Fully Alive Medicine (FAM) Diet©.
- Begin aggressive anti-fungal supplements and probiotic recommendations.
Candida Bundle Month 1
The first 30 days of the candida program includes these anti-fungal supplements:
AlliUltra (3 bottles) – contains Allisure AC-23, a stabilized form of allicin extracted from garlic
Candida Balance (2 bottles) – potent blend of nutrients, herbs, and essential oils to address candida overgrowth
Candisol – a physician-strength blend of plant-based, fiber digesting enzymes that target yeast
Latero-Flora – normalizes flora in the GI tract to aid in digestion and toxin elimination
Sinus Survival Pro Biotic – probiotic blend, formulated with Saccharomyces boulardii, designed to promote a healthy microbial balance
Important diet information:
Strictly avoid these foods, especially in the first 3-4 weeks: sugar, sweeteners and high-glycemic foods (white rice, white f our products, etc.), fermented foods (soy sauce, pickles, alcohol, etc.). After 3 weeks, follow the FAM Diet.
With fungal sinusitis/candida overgrowth, the diet’s main purpose is to starve the candida organisms and deprive them of their primary sources of fuel; it is also an anti-inflammatory, hypoallergenic, and nutrient- dense diet.
Attempting to reduce candida by just taking anti-fungal supplements without changing your diet doesn’t work. It’s vital that you closely adhere to these diet guidelines.
Detox reactions:
Some patients may experience an increase in sinus symptoms and feel a bit worse than they did before beginning the candida treatment program. This may also involve muscle aches, and in some cases flu-like symptoms. This is the Herxheimer reaction, or “die-off effect,” which can occur during the first 3 weeks of the candida treatment. As the candida organisms are dying, they release toxins, which in turn produce more inflammation.
Probiotics note:
After years of sinus infections and multiple courses of antibiotics, beneficial bacteria are greatly diminished. These bacteria are critical for the optimal functioning of your immune system. It’s very important to replace these bacteria with the appropriate probiotics. In addition to replenishing the G.I. tract with the beneficial bacteria, l. acidophilus and bifidus, Sinus Survival’s Pro Biotic also contains l. casei – a species of beneficial bacteria that has been shown to prevent colds. Latero Flora is also an important part of the treatment program because it is effective in creating an alkaline environment, which is hostile to candida (they thrive in a more acidic environment).
