Alternative Detox Methods
Detox isn't just about diet and colon cleansing. Here are a few alternative detox methods that you can try alongside more conventional techniques.
Detox is important during your Candida treatment for two reasons. Firstly, you need to remove the toxins that the Candida yeast releases into your body. This will help relieve some of the Candida symptoms. Secondly, a good detox can help you get through Candida Die-Off, when the rapid killing of yeast cells results in large quantities of toxins being released into your bloodstream.
Sauna
Saunas are beneficial during a Candida elimination program and are also useful in preventing a recurrence of the overgrowth. They improve immune system function and the rise in body temperature helps to restrict the Candida.
A good sauna will also increase blood circulation - another way to help eliminate Candida. Make sure that the sauna has not been treated with toxic chemicals, and be careful to drink lots of water.
Stay in the sauna for 15-45 minutes, and make sure that the sauna is not too hot. If you find yourself sweating heavily after only 15 minutes, then you should turn the temperature down.
Skin Brushing
This technique is a great way to to eliminate Candida yeast cells by stimulating the lymphatic system. The idea is that firm but gentle brush strokes across the skin will improve your blood circulation, enabling your body to eliminate Candida yeast cells faster.
First you need to buy a brush from your local health food store. It should have natural bristles and a long handle. Secondly, make sure your skin is dry. Many people do a skin brushing in the morning just before their shower, so that the dead skin cells are immediately washed away.
Start the skin brushing with the soles of your feet, using slow, gentle, circular movements. Move up your body, all the time brushing towards your chest, but be careful to avoid areas where your skin is particularly sensitive.

Contrast Showers
A great way to boost your immune system in the comfort of your own home is with contrast showers. The improved circulation carries away Candida yeast cells, while contrast showers can also increase the number of your white blood cells and boost your immune system.
Start with 3-5 minutes of hot water, followed by one minute or less of cold water. Repeat this cycle at least once. A good time to do a contrast shower is straight after the gym, perhaps before or after using the sauna.

Exercise
Exercise is very important not only for your general health, but also in the fight against Candidiasis. It activates your lymphatic system and increases the levels of oxygen in your bloodstream. This plays a key role in optimal immune function, helpful in reducing the number of Candida yeast cells in the body.
A good sweat also helps to eliminate toxins produced by the Candida. Try to do 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise 4-5 days a week.
