When you starve the candida (very low carb, no sugar, no yeast, no
alcohol anti-candida diet) coupled
with the anti-fungal treatment -
fluconazole
which is the standard medical treatment & coconut oil- it will eventually get eradicated.
Probiotics also help fight Candida by replenishing your healthy gut flora, but must be good quality and wire spectrum
The rule of thumb is 1-2 months of treatment per year from the onset, which BTW is unsymptomatic at first.
