Bill Thompson's Candida Diet Protocol

I just want to say THANK YOU! This is the best website I have ever found. (FYI I learned of this site from "The One Minute Cure" book.)

Bill Thompson's Candida Protocol is truly a God-send! I already had all the products because I have been trying everything to get healthy the past 4 years! Been to 6 doctors, numerous tests, even 2 stool tests. Waste of money, even in 2023!! I was able to jump right in cause I had already done several detoxes and diet changes. Just didn't think to add them all together like Bill did. A miracle! God's best to you all and your families! <3

Hi Leah...You really should have no fear of my anti-candida protocol. The only reaction you might get from taking this protocol is maybe a Herx reaction which is also known as a "Healing crisis". People sometimes get this Helaing Crisis when they take my protocol and so you should really just accept it. A Healing Crisis or Herx reaction occurs when large amounts of candida + bad bacteria + parasites are rapidly and suddenly killed in your body by the protocol. Toxic waste products from the dead pathogens/parasites accumulate in the blood and then they have to be cleared by your liver -- which becomes stressed -- and that's when you may feel a little poorly for a while. But this healing crisis should eventually pass once you have removed all the bad pathogens -- including the candida -- from your body using the anti-candida protocol. So what I'm saying is that you should certainly be prepared for a Herx reaction or healing crisis when you first start my protocol. Also, bear in mind that if you don't take any anti-candida protocol because you fear the healing crisis then how can you cure your serious systemic candida problem -- which will only get worse -- if you do nothing? You can either use the protocol in my candida book or you can use a simplified free protocol that I now also recommend at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XGVf9i-N_keyn51fUxEs91JQOs7-dfBEAfsclH5SQ9k/edit?usp=sharing I also always advise that when people first start my anti-candida protocol they should start off with smaller dosages for every protocol. Then -- after a few days and if there are no problems -- slowly work up to the full advised dosage for each remedy in the protocol. Or just take dosages that you feel comfortable with. Also your diet should favor vegetables, which should cause you no problems. You can add a little protein as well -- tofu or meat. Try to avoid excess carbohydrates and sugar if you can -- these foods feed the candida and help it to spread. The ideal meal for you would be chop suey. And you should avoid taking anti-biotics at all costs. If you take anti-biotics then your candida will always rapidly spread and get worse. Anti-biotics are also a major cause of most candida problems. See this link: https://www.health-science-spirit.com/candida.html

Hi Peter,

In answer to your questions: "I suggested to him that he try tofu to help him feel satisfied. Is tofu OK for someone with candida albicans? " Tofu is fine -- but in small amounts because proteins can acidify the body when in eaten to excess. I would also reduce all carbohydrates and sugars in your son's diet. These foods help to feed candida causing it to rapidly spread and get worse. If your son is having a problem digesting meat then he should take B-50 Complex once a day with a Pancreatin supplement with every meal that contains all the main digestive enzymes for the duodenum. This should help your son's digestion of proteins. "Is there a recommended brand of Borax or can he use the grocery store version?" You can use USP tech grade borax off the internet if you like, but that's expensive. I would just use unscented 20 Mule Team Borax. Borax is mined and generally contains no heavy metals or pesticides etc.

This is also in accordance with Ted from Bangkok's recommendations for supplementing Borax. Also your son should avoid taking any anti-biotics for his candida problem. Over-use of anti-biotics is perhaps the major cause of most candida problems out there.

Hi Bill,

My son has suffered from systemic candida for almost 5 years. Recently, I came across this site and he has begun taking some of the protocols you recommend. While he has had this issue, he has mostly maintained a very strict candida diet - but recently has been suffering from some other stomach issues. He visited Egypt in October and may have picked up a parasite or worm. In any case, he is now having trouble digesting meat - but at the same time he is not being satiated with not eating meat. A few questions: I suggested to him that he try tofu to help him feel satisfied. Is tofu OK for someone with candida albicans? My second question is: Is there a recommended brand of Borax or can he use the grocery store version?

Many thanks! Peter

Dear Bill,

After doing some endless research regarding my symptoms, I come across your book, Candida: Killing So Sweetly. I already knew I had candida as one alternative doctor had confirmed 5 years ago. I consulted quite a couple of alternative doctors for the past eight years, as my own doctor cannot see my own symptoms, but none were able to help me. I believe your book is an answered prayer. I am 40 years old and had been suffering from candida symptoms for more that 10 years now. I can feel that my body and my immune system is getting weaker by the day, I could feel it and it makes me really scared. I come across your book around two weeks ago and I already started eating healthy and avoided some sweets. I have not started the candida protocol yet as I am still waiting for the hair analysis result, as I want to make sure I am taking the correct supplements before I start the protocol and taking the supplements that goes with it. I had quite a scary experience in the past taking herbal supplements which was advised by one of the alternative doctor, that I am now hesitant to start using some of the supplements advised. I have some questions about following your advised in the book, and would love to get in touch with you personally, I think that would give more confidence to start the protocol. The reason why I am hesitant is that, I am worried that the supplement dosage is quite too much for me as I am a petite woman, under 5 feet. I have read somewhere that the supplement you take should be adjusted according to the body weight. I have read in your book that you have helped quite a few people fight their candida, I am hoping you can assist me too. It also gives me more confidence to ask for your assistance, when I read that you have been living in the Philippines, my home country, so I am quite confident you can understand the Filipino way of thinking and lifestyle. Although, I have been living in the Netherlands now for more than 10 years, my eating habit is still almost the same.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my long letter.

Kind regards, Leah

Bill,

Thanks for your comments on Sept 22, 2019 on dealing with systemic candida. I am following your suggestions. Plus, since I do have systemic candida, I increased my 5% Lugol to 1 tsp in a glass of water 4 x daily for 5 days as of today. No bad side effects and still sleeping well. The candida is trying to get out. My mouth and tongue are black in spots. I figure I'm getting about 400mg a day of Lugol's and I'm 79 years. I am excited, have lots of energy and plan to see this through. I ordered more copies of your book to share. Thanks again. Delores

Bill, I am 79 years old and have systemic candida. Have battled it for years. Had vaginal infections in my 20s and used monistat cream a lot. Now I'm carefully following your book "Killing So Sweetly". For 2 weeks now I have been taking 15mg of Lugols Iodine 5% 4 times a day for a total of 60mg per day for 2 weeks. I'm having some positive results. After reading Dr Orian Truss book, The Missing Diagnosis, I'm optimistic that I may be well in about 4 more weeks. Would appreciate any comments.

Hi Joanna...

I'm sorry that I'm so late replying -- with apologies.

If your friend has both systemic candida and leukemia then we must, as a matter of urgency, get rid of the candida problem as quickly as possible. Candida rapidly drags immune system down allowing cancer to dominate and proliferate. So the candida must be urgently dealt with as quickly as possible. I have a simplified and effective anti-candida protocol which your son can take. See this link for the whole protocol:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XGVf9i-N_keyn51fUxEs91JQOs7-dfBEAfsclH5SQ9k/

The candida protocol should not effect Ted's leukemia protocol which is also shown below. Concerning your son's leukemia, you could also perhaps follow Ted from Bangkok's Leukemia protocols shown at this link:

https://ted.earthclinic.com/cures/leukemia.html

Below is a simple breakdown of Ted's Leukemia cure:

Selenium 600 mcg per day (up to 1000 mcg max)

Take lysine (1/2 tspn) + threonine (1/4 tspn) together with water hourly for four hours in the morning and for four hours in the evening(i.e. 8 doses of lysine/threonine per day). Take this for at least 3 days. This should kill the leukemia if it is caused by a virus.

On day three, take 1/3 tspn glutamine for every lysine dose with your morning doses only. In order to get the blood pH within the proper range, say 6.5 to 7.0, you should take baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon 30 minutes after meals(3 times a day). It will take time to recovery proper pH if your body is already acidic -- at least 1 week. Take Chinese Wolfberry -- 1 teaspoon 6 times a day. Take lemongrass tea several times a day. Take 10 drops DMSO(Dimethyl Sulfoxide) in water 6 times a day. Lemon juice contains Limonene which actively kills cancer. Take fresh squeezed whole lemon juice + 1/4 tspn baking soda in a glass with water. Take this twice a day outside mealtimes.

"Kia Ora Bill".. Thank you for your most valuable info and your book which has helped me reclaim back my health. I did a B/P reading last night about 1/2 hour after chain sawing some freshly downed pine trees for fire wood, this took me a couple of hours 116/78. Two weeks ago I wouldn't have lasted 1/2 an hour before I would have been exhausted. I know this surge of energy to my health is due to the Candida protocol as suggested in your book which is the major contributing factor, almost three weeks on this protocol and "WOW"... Will incorporate suggested protocol to my daily regime..

KEA-KAHA BILL live long and prosperous..

Hi Awesome people.. I am wanting to know how long does one stay on the Candida protocol as per stated by Bill Thomson in his book Candida Killing So Sweetly?

I've been on this protocol for two weeks now and have seen some dramatic improvements in so shorter time... wow

Better But With Side Effects

3 Weeks on Bill's Candida cure -

Update and Questions: I have been following the program except I didn't start with the zinc. I completely forgot to order it. Love the alkaline drink through the day, my PH has never been higher! For the first time, I feel like I could win this battle against my systemic candida. I am drinking the Pau Darco and Gymenma Tea all throughout the day and loving it!

I do feel like it's working but I am concerned about a few symptoms:

1. I easily bruise like never before and these bruises are large and I don't remember ever hitting or bumping myself where they appear?!

2. Tired! I feel really tired all day long. I've read everyone gets energy from the iodine, but I am not experiencing that.

3. Menses has stopped but the good news is I had no PMS!?!

4. Sleep. I get hot flashes at night and interrupted sleep.

5. Strong nails are now peeling and chipping. Hair growth has slowed significantly.

Hi Mcr583...If you want the protocol to be more powerful then just add either lugols iodine or borax to your alkalizing combo -- but do not combine borax together with iodine because this will cancel out their beneficial effects. The dose for 5% lugol's iodine is 6 drop's per glass(work up to that dose slowly) twice a day in the alkalizing combo. The way you add borax is to just use it as a solution instead of water. The main anti-candida protocol is shown here. This document also describes how to make borax water and borax tea as well.

If you are sensitive to sodium for whatever reason then you can also add sodium bicarbonate to the drink as well. Generally the potassium dose is half the sodium dose. So if you're using 1/4 tspn SB, then just use 1/8 tspn potassium bicarbonate. I would also start taking magnesium chloride or magnesium citrate -- 250 mgs twice a day -- since excess calcium can also affect your potassium and sodium levels. Magnesium helps to properly balance and regulate the calcium.

If you have muscle weakness, then its advisable to strengthen your energy system. You can do this by taking B50 complex once or twice a day with meals. Additionally I would try taking 500 mgs niacinamide three times a day with meals. Niacinamide is an antifungal and is also a strong immune booster as well, so you might initially get a Herx reaction with this one.

Your energy problem might also be due to methylation issues in your body. So start off by taking 500 mgs of TMG or Trimethylglycine twice a day with meals. You'll know if its working because it tends to improve digestion and also helps to lift depression. You can take up to 5000 mgs of TMG per day. You will also know when you are taking too much because excess TMG will make you feel anxious and irritable. So, in this way, you should be able to find the ideal TMG dose that best suits you.

I would also strongly advise that you take the Turpentine protocol as advised in the above link. This will not only rapidly kill the candida and parasites, but it will also act to kill all associated candida co-infections from other pathogen species as well, which are always usually present when systemic candida dominates your body. So this one is a must. Protocol details are in the link above. You should also expect a Herx healing crisis with this one, so if this happens then adjust your turpentine dosages down accordingly.

I have systemic yeast, which has been in my life for about 20 years. I have tried many different approaches, and eat a pretty clean diet. Regular doctors have not been any help to me. Mostly my symptoms are digestive (bloating, bad digestion, body odor, bad breath, cravings, extremely low blood sugar, tiredness, allergies to dust, any type of animal, mold, chemicals, vinegar, sugar, wheat, dairy, etc., etc.) I follow a general anti-yeast diet, but not too strict, eat whole foods, consume very little protein and oils, as animal protein and oils make me stink, and I cannot digest them.

I started my cleansing program with diatomaceous earth, about 2 weeks ago. I had also been drinking gymnema sylvestre, which really helped the daily dizziness and weakness when I got hungry.

I notice 2 days of improved breath, but then was extremely bloated, stinky, etc. for about 1 week. Then I passed 2 bowel movements of what looked like a lot of rice (apparently tapeworm, chopped into bits by the diatomaceous earth). I felt better.

At the same time I have been doing fresh carrot juice and coffee enemas (maybe every other day).

Then I started iodine, (1 drop day 1,2 drops day 2,4 drops day 5,6,7) which even with 4 drops immediately helped the nasal congestion (I am extremely congested all over... in my nose, body, have vaginal discharge although not a yeast infection there, which apparently corresponds to sinus congestion). I have been taking molybdenum + companion nutrients, and have noticed not die-off. (Normally in the past when I do an anti-yeast cleanse I am seriously sick for about 7 days, and all of my symptoms are terrible, and I stink). The congestion feels like it is even in my ears. It is very uncomfortable.

Then I took 1 tsp pine tar turpentine with 1 TBSP castor oil. The next day I was very spaced out, it felt like I was floating, the breath was worse. I did not notice any digestive symptoms. Must be die-off. Will post again in a few days.

I am very happy to have discovered this approach, and very grateful to Bill Thomson for writing his book.

Dear Bill,

I am very intrigued by your protocol and will definitely buy your book. In the meantime I am wondering if you could answer one question for me:

Is it necessary to follow your full protocol for a person who has their Candida symptoms well under control unless they eat something sugary?

With help of a strict Candida diet and several herbal antifungals like Pau d'arco, GSE and oil of oregano I have got my systemic Candida infection down to being virtually symptom free except a minor yeast infection in the eyes and thrush when I eat foods containing sugar.

When I eat according to Candida diet guidelines and manage my stress levels well I am symptom free and feel really good.

It feels as if I am able to tolerate more and more carbs, but perhaps I'm kidding myself, and I will always have to watch what I eat.

How would your protocol change in light of the fact that I have already eliminated most of the Candida?

Greetings from Cornwall, England

Bill, Thank you for all of you work with Candida and Alkalizing! I recently just started the h202, Borax, and Molybdenum combination and it is doing wonders. (It was also quite interesting look up all the history of boron.) My question is regarding Methylene Blue. You recommend using 0.1%, correct? I can only find this dilution in laboratory grade.

The Methylene available at fish stores I've seen are typically 2.3% or 1%. Does your book recommend how to dilute down? Or should I go with the laboratory grade? I'm having a hard time thinking it out, also dealing with Lyme - brain fog.

Buzymom; Yes Fungi// fungus is passed on to every child & generation/s the sad thing is I lost a lot of family members because of fungus. I mentioned to one doctor about me having fungus and he ran down the hall away from me, because it is contagious(the spray from our mouth) saliva .. I also found the first signs is people that have contracted it show first signs of anger.There has never been any real treatment/s for it to my knowledge, most Drs. call this the silent disease.My previous Dr. always continued to give me antibiotics until one day I came very close to having a heart attack. There is a medication that is anti-viral med. but my assumption is it may be for a selected few.So far I have lost a nephew that had a twin brother he died of a heart attack, one of my brothers died at the age of 47 from too much toxins// my assumption on this one comment leads me to think I too have an over load of toxins(?) then an older brother died at the age of 57 from a heart attack. Right now I am taking a couple of probiotics, one is cats claw, and grape seed extract/not at the same time. I feel a lot better. Also I changed Drs. over to a holistic Dr. Please write if you have more questions. keep me informed, and good luck.

Hi Bill,

I have been reading all thru these postings and I noticed you recommend natural mineral water. At the risk of sounding like a fool, could you suggest where I might find it, and what I should look for?

I have been using distilled water, with borax and acv, and have had impressive results in my health, in general, but would switch to natural mineral water if you could help me with how to find/select it. Also cost is going to be a factor for me.

I'm really new to all of this, and 'health' had always been my doctors issue, if you know what I mean. But I now research everything, so any info would be great.

I also want to thank you for all of your input here. It's a very kind thing you do sharing your knowledge.

Working with Bill's Anti-Candida Protocol. feeling good so far. my question is how long to continue the protocol? I am doing many things: borax, lugol's iodine, fulvic acid, threelac, symbion, methylene blue. just got sodium thiosulfate crystals. will be making that solution tomorrow. just wanted to know how long I should plan to continue the protocol. thanks!

Hi Bill,

I have been following your (and Ted's) Candida recommendations for 9 months now starting with Baking Soda/Lime which was a massive health turn around in 3 days for me, then taking Borax which worked well at first for about 3 months, drinking Povidine Iodine (it is all I could get for 6 months) and taking small amounts of Serrapeptase.

Recently I visited the USA where I could get everything I wanted (Nattokinase, Lumbrokinase, high potency Serrapeptase, Lugols in particular) and I must say I got sick and weak rather quickly. At this time I bought your book on Candida and read it through 3 times already.

It took about 4 weeks (360,000IU Serrapeptase a day, 9000FU Nattokinase, 1.4 mill units lumbrokinase + 300mg Lugols Iodine + lots of supporting minerals + 1 tsp borax a day) and I, excuse the language, shat out a putrid lot of black slime when my diet is mainly eggs and greens so that was not something I ate. At first after this I got sicker and slept a lot but now almost 2 weeks later (I added 500ml natural yoghurt a day + 5 yakult drinks) I feel so much better and my brain works again, most important I lost my instant temper and emotionally and very stable after years of instability.

THANKYOU for your book and your work, I just have a few more issues to clear up and I'll be better than when I was 18.

Excellent work, I cannot thankyou enough.

Big C :)
