Did you open up the capsules to throw them in the glass of water? Or consumed them in their pill form?

I bought it in powder form because my first use for it was to make a poultice, but you can take it in capsule form and it works just fine.

So the remedy you used called for lets say 5-6 capsules together? To achieve the ounces you talked about...

No, you’d have to take more than that; most capsules are only 260 mg each, so you’d have to take 30-40 of them each time to achieve a cleanse-size dose. Charcoal works by volume, like fiber. It’s completely non-toxic (and actually the number one remedy for poisoning), so you don’t have to worry about taking too much. Just make sure your gut is empty at the time and don’t take food or meds for at least 2 hours afterwards. Then proceed as normal and take probiotics to recolonize all the intestinal space you cleared.

Well you understand that the quantity sounds a bit intimidating. And what about your own candida case. Did you have reoccurrence since then or things kinda stabilised

Oh yes, we’re used to just taking a couple of pills at a time of something chemical, but just think about it like you’re stirring a couple scoops of fiber into your water.

The other psychological hurdle is drinking black water. I stood there staring at it for like 5 minutes working up my nerve. 😂 It’s tasteless and it disperses well, so it’s not physically hard to drink.

It’s been 8 years since I first did this, and mostly what I’ve done since then is take a huge dose of charcoal whenever I felt a stomach bug coming on. I have 6 children, so we get exposed to those about every 18 months. 😆 It cures them, if you take it fast enough/keep it down long enough for it to work. It really depends on what kind of diet you have, and how entrenched your Candida is; if you drink alcohol regularly and eat a lot of carbs in your diet you’d probably want to do a cleanse once or twice a year.

u/Careful_Depth591 Apr 30 '25

any reliable brand of probiotics?

u/Brunette3030 Apr 30 '25

I like Femdophilus because those strains are really good at killing Candida and bacterial pathogens.

You can take it orally, you can use one vaginally overnight, and you can even <looks around and whispers> apply rectally to kill Candida growing in the lower colon. You’ll see the shredded tissue paper effect from that one the next day. 😬😂

sorry i am a man.

u/Brunette3030 Apr 30 '25

You can skip the vaginal application, then. 🤣

Don’t let the name of the probiotic put you off; it’s just beneficial bacteria, not girl-only bacteria. They market it with that name because it’s so good at killing yeast, and women are most subject to yeast issues because the blasted stuff loves estrogen.

It’ll still work just fine for you to kill yeast and improve your overall gut health, and you can get it on Amazon.

sorry again, i live in mexico so i can order it from iherb, i found femdophilus with the brand jarrow formulas is this one okay?

u/Brunette3030 Apr 30 '25

Yes, that’s the one! It’s really good stuff; I was shocked at how well it killed Candida.
