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

Increased Anxiety With Lugol's Iodine on Candida Diet Protocol

Sw777 (England) on 12/30/2023

I'm currently doing the Candida Protocol from the Killing So Sweetly book. However, my body does not seem to be able to tolerate the drops of Lugol's iodine and my adrenals seem to be firing on all cylinders, leading me to be constantly anxious when taking it. However, it does seem to be helping my candida symptoms.. so I want to keep taking it, I’m just worried if I do I’m messing my body up. Any one else experienced this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Kids and Candida Protocol

For a 9 year old, does anyone suggest the candida protocol? I was thinking I can half the dose of what is recommended for an adult.

Bill Thompson's Candida Diet Protocol Book - Is .PDF Available?

Andrej (Slovensko) on 12/29/2022

v>Hi Bill, I bought your book "Candida Killing So Sweetly" in electronic form. I would like to ask you if you could send me the book in PDF so that I can translate it all in Google and save it in my language. In this way, I have to painstakingly copy it on the pages and have it translated. I am from Slovakia. I've been suffering from Candida for ten years, I've been through everything possible. I have also used borax, MMS, MSM, baking soda, kerosene, now I use sugar turpentine and a bunch of other things. It's for the whole book. Some took a short time, some not at all. You apply these things all together and that makes sense to me. First of all, I would like to read your book and ask you if I will be able to "lean" on you in difficult times, consult you when I am not sure about something, because I only translate everything, I do not understand the English language... Candida vo to me it is incredibly strong and adaptable, it's like a curse - as mentioned by Dr. Daniels. Sometimes it is very difficult to find some more strength and determination to keep going. I am 44 years old.
Thank you in advance.

Question for Bill about Candida Protocol

Elaine (North Carolina) on 10/14/2021

Hi Bill,

I finally purchased your book and am hitting it hard. I didn't graduate up too slowly because I have been using Borax, Baking Soda, ACV, Magnesium, sodium thiosulfate and Lugols for a few years. Just not been 100% in the way required for a true Candida war. I have been fighting prediabetes, HS, white tongue, and a host of other strange reoccurring ailments for years and several years back was on a long dosing of Steroids multiple times then long term low dose antibiotics. Recently started having constant sore tongue, constant kidney stones and high urine protein, elevated TSH and low blood pressure on top of everything else. Decided it was time to get the root problem taken care of and I believe that is Candida. I am taking everything in your recommendations except the MethBlue and the Betaine HCL.

In the past when I took Betaine it made my stomach burn even at low doses. I haven't taken the Turpentine yet but I am taking Bromelain and some Serrapeptase .

I am on day 5 of the protocol. On day 4 I woke to a nasty raw feeling throat that seemed to go all the way down my esophagus. Today I was much improved till after my evening cocktail that consisted of Lime juice, Borax, Baking Soda Ascorbic Acid, Glutamine, and MSM all mixed together in some home made mineral water (1/8 tsp Baking soda, 1/8 tsp magnesium chloride and 1/8 tsp potassium bicarb in a liter of distilled water). Shortly after drinking it my stomach began to burn and will not let up. Much the way it did when I tried Betaine several months ago.

I am wondering what the most likely culprit is for the burning throat and stomach? Should I up the baking soda to more than 1/2 tsp in the mixture? My blood pressure stays low so there is no concern with the sodium content, but is that the best option?

The list of all items I am taking in addition to those listed above:

  • Vitamin A
  • Vitamin D
  • Vitamin E
  • Quercetin
  • Selenium
  • Chromium ( Blood Sugar Control)
  • Riboflavin
  • Methylated B Complex
  • Reservitrol
  • Moly B
  • Niacinimde
  • NAC
  • ALA
  • Fulvic
  • Lugols
  • Benfotiamine
  • Milk Thistle
  • Zinc
  • Melatonin
  • Berberine ( Blood Sugar Control)
  • Magnesium
  • Liposomal C 3k to 6k per day
  • Gymnema

Thanks in advance.

Candida: Killing So Sweetly - Alkaline Question

Dave L (Nevada) on 10/06/2021

Hello, I'm following Bill's candida protocol from his book and the recommendation is to add sodium bicarbonate to water several times throughout the day in order to raise its pH.

My question is what if I already have highly alkaline water in my home? Is it an issue to add sodium bicarbonate and ACV to water that already has a pH of ~8.8?

Questions About Bill Thompson's Candida Diet Protocol

Peter_f (Los Angeles) on 05/18/2021

I have some questions for Bill or anybody else who has done the detox protocol that he outlines in his google doc:

--- COMBO DRINKS ---

(1) is it okay to take the alkalizing combo drink first thing in the morning?
Ted mentioned in the past that "in the morning hours the body needs to be more acidic", so possibly I'd need to wait a couple of hours before taking the first combo drink?

(2) combo #1 states to use Vitamin c alongside Lugol's iodine, but I read that (when taking simultaneously) vitamin c will convert iodine to iodide, leaving much less iodine (or none). Is this intended here or should I possibly leave the Vit C out to get more iodine from combo #1?

(3) for the MSM, how much is 1 tsp in mg?

(4) can I take OLE (Olive Leaf Extract) on the same day when doing the combo drinks or should I stay off that for now?

(5) regarding "add Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) until the fizzing stops". Does that mean to keep adding more baking soda until the fizzing stops, or simply add 1/4 tspn and wait until the fizzing stops?

--- TURPENTINE / CASTOR OIL PROTOCOL ---

(6) Could someone post a link or a brand name for a castor oil product (I'm in the U.S.)? I wanna make sure I buy the right product for this protocol.

Thank you so much and thank you for sharing all your advice. It is very much appreciated!

Hi,

I just started Bill's candida protocol a week or two ago and I'm getting tingling and numbness in my hands and arms mostly. There is some of this in my feet sometimes too. What could I be taking (or not taking) that could be causing this?

This is for Bill, re: turpentine: I have had allergy testing which revealed an allergy to white pines. Is there a Canadian balsam fir turpentine that you can recommend? I have been struggling With Candida for the last 12 years And have been on a pretty strict diet most of the time. But it just never really completely goes away. I want to try some sort of turpentine and be done with it! Thanks!

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, 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.

Bill Thompson's Candida Diet Protocol - Molybdenum Questions

Josh (Salt Lake City, Utah) on 11/21/2020

I've been on Bill's anti candida protocol for a day and everything is exceeding my expectations. However, I believe the Sodium Molybdnate Dihydrate was causing me some issues in my throat. How many teaspoons/quarter teaspoons etc is 900mcg of sodium molybdate? Same question for 250mg MgCl. I have the supplements in powder form.

And are other forms of Molybdneum acceptable as well in case I really am allergic to this form? (Molybdenum Glycinate Chelate in particular from Thorne and Douglas Labs). There's no mention of these other forms in Bill Thompson's Killing So Sweetly book.

Bill Thompson's Candida Diet for Children

Mark S., DC (North Salem, New York) on 10/29/2020

Hello Bill.

I am absolutely desperate and out of my mind watching my ten year old suffer with a plethora of symptoms that began about 5 years ago. Abdominal pain-at times severe, that lasts days, allergies to dust mites, pollen, milk products, etc., acid reflux, indigestion, muscle/joint pain, runny nose, poor attention, anxiety-OCD, poor sleep, constipation, overweight, lethargy/weakness, asthma, bloating/gas-especially in morning, and worst of all, constant nasal congestion that is moderate to severe all the time!!!!!

I have suffered along with him. I am desperate to help this child!!!!!

I believe that he is suffering with systemic candida and possibly EBV.

Where do I begin? Do I self treat? Look for a holistic practitioner competent enough to help him, or do I get your book and follow the protocols?

Can I treat him as an adult or does the protocol change?

I am a chiropractor with considerable knowledge but this is pretty complicated and different because he is my son.

I am grateful for anything you or the readers can do for my baby>

Blessings and thanks, Mark S., DC

Re: Activated Charcoal for Detoxification - Question for Bill Thompson

Bill (Philippines) on 11/07/2018
5 out of 5 stars

Supplementing activated charcoal is certainly a good way of removing poisons and heavy metals from the intestines only. If you want to detox poisons from your blood, tissues and organs I would use a combination of the following three nutrients, always taken once a day with meals as a preventative:

Milk Thistle - 500 mgs per dose

Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA) - 300mgs per dose

Selenium - 200 mcgs per dose

You can also double the above dosages quite safely by taking the above dosages twice a day if you like e.g. to heal the liver.

I would also advise eating a handful of raw cilantro every day with meals. Cilantro is one of the best heavy metal detoxers you can use. And it's safe because it's food. Taking a teaspoon of Ted's recommended soya lecithin granules is also beneficial to the liver.

As most also know, selenium, removes mercury from the body, is good for the heart, helps to produce key essential anti-oxidant enzymes like glutathione peroxidase, and, from more recent research, helps to prevent autoimmune diseases and allergies due to selenium's newly discovered ability to remove mercury-derived hapten markers from blood/body proteins.

I'm also taking the Milk Thistle, ALA and Selenium every day and I've been doing this for quite a while and would certainly recommend it as a preventative. It's probably the best combination detoxer for your body which also gives strong liver protection and healing.

Re: Bill Thompson's Candida Diet Protocol

Bill (Philippines) on 10/23/2018

Hi Sydney...I've been thinking about your heart problems again. In my own past research on heart problems, doctor's and specialists only tend to look for the obvious in their tests for heart problems. In other words, there heart tests can miss alot. This is also true when doctors test for other serious conditions like candida and thyroid problems.

There are a few alternative approaches which might also benefit your condition. Therefore it might be worth it to describe other pathogens that could negatively impact your heart.

The first pathogen is candida, which you have been researching. The anti-candida protocol will help to heal that problem.

The second bacterial pathogen that is difficult to eradicate is the mycoplasma form. This is a nano bacteria that has no cell wall. The anti-candida protocol should be adequate to kill this bacterial form (it also kills mycobacterium) due to the use of borax, pure gum turpentine, Lugol's Iodine etc in the anti-candida protocol.

The third pathogen that could also be involved with your heart problems is the spirochete bacteria. Spirochetes are the bacteria that infect the mouth and gums causing tooth decay and gingivitis. Dentists have no real answer or solution to this problem, other than regularly making dental appointments for cleaning and scraping your teeth and strangely insisting that you must always use toothpaste containing fluoride (which is a thyroid suppressant and a poison). I've also read research where spirochete biofilms have been found embedded in arterial plaque. This means that spirochetes can also happily infect the heart(usually the heart valve area). The Borrelia burgdorferi spirochete is also found in Lyme Disease which doctors are unable to consistently and effectively cure using drugs. So, generally speaking, the spirochete form is one tough pathogen to beat. Here are some alternative suggestions for you to make your heart healthy again:

Resveratrol -- 500mgs/day with meals. Only buy resveratrol that is sourced from Japanese Knotweed -- this form has the highest amount of the beneficial trans reseveratrol. This flavonoid is capable of destroying both the spiral form and round form (spore) of spirochetes.

Health Benefits of Resveratrol

Quercetin -- 1000mgs once a day with meals. From the research, when resveratrol is taken with quercetin then this will double the strength of your immune system.

Benefits of Quercetin

Arjuna -- 250mgs to 500 mgs per day (no side effects). This is the go-to Ayurvedic herb that so hugely benefits the heart. From the Indian research, this herb will help with most heart conditions because arjuna tends to help clear and drain the lymphatic system properly and safely which helps to greatly heal and strengthen the heart. I've also read that arjuna can cure angina. This is a heart loving herb.

Interfase -- This nutrient(Google it) contains protease enzymes, chitinase as well as hemicellulase digesting enzymes. This means that this nutrient will destroy both candida and all forms of bacteria and will also eliminate biofilms in the blood vessels and heart. Interfase will also help to remove dangerous arterial plaque build-up. This option is a strong protocol for both arterial and heart recovery since most inherent pathogens that infect the arteries and heart tend to automatically protect themselves from the body's immune system within their own impenetrable biofilms. Take this nutrient outside mealtimes for maximum absorption into the blood where it will do the most good.

Another simple nutrient that might help you would be to take two tablespoons of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on a daily basis. I take coconut oil in my pure ground black coffee every morning. According to the research -- VCO is able to kill any pathogen, including spirochetes, candida etc, that have a cell wall. Here's some research on the benefits of VCO:

Coconut Oil Peer Reviewed Research

VCO Health Benefits

In the more recent research that I've read, it has also been found that supplementing VCO daily also seems to act like a pro-biotic that can heal, change and stimulate the healthy growth and development of the gut microbiome -- the healthy and essential protective bacteria in your gut that is such an important part of your immune system.
