The use of Nystatin as a way to control candida
I read The Yeast Connection and the author advocates the use of Nystatin as a way to control candida in the body. Is that true?
Answer: Many people bought this book and came to realize that the recommended treatment for candida does not work. Here’s why: Nystatin is very toxic to the person taking it, and it changes candida into an armored spore state. After you stop taking Nystatin, the next day all of the candida symptoms come back intensively. This is due to the candida coming out of its dormant armored spore form, and it replicates itself quite rapidly. A person taking Nystatin develops a saturated liver from the chemical toxins from the Nystatin, and also an influx of toxins given off by the candida in its elevated and aggressive state. Patients that I have evaluated that had taken Nystatin still had major health problems due to the high level of candida in their body.
