I have started on a Candida Cleanse which includes a strict diet, taking oregano oil as an antifungals and taking probiotics. As well I am doing a daily treatment for my toenail fungus (topically and internally).
My doctor has prescribed me an antidepressant (Celexa) as I am also quite clinically depressed but I am worried if I take it it would counteract the work I am doing with the antifungals. Treating my toenail fungus is a long process (could be for months up to a year). I would like to do both, however I wouldn't want to if it meant that all the time, effort and $ spent treating the candida and my toenails would be wasted.
For those who may say ask a pharmacist - I ready have and from their perspective they say it shouldn't effect the antidepressant. However, I am now interested in hearing from those on the other side (natural health professionals and those educated in such) to see if the antidepressant would feed the yeast or make the antifungal work less effective. 'Regular' health professionals often seem to think that candida overgrowth may not be an issue or that herbs have no effect, whereas natural health care professionals seem to take things such as candida overgrowth more seriously. So, any opinions from natural health professionals and those educated in the field would be much appreciated. And please, no spam!
Thank you

You have come to the right place to get rid of your Candida infection once and for all. Did you know that over 90% of men and women live with some form of Candida infection in their bodies? In most cases it lies dormant until it finds the right condition, and then it flares up and cause all those painful symptoms that you are probably just too well aware of.
You also probably know by now that it is futile to visit your local GP - there is a very good chance that he (or she) doesn't even know what your problem is! And if he/she HAS managed to successfully diagnose you, guess what you were offered as a solution? Yup, anti-biotics, the wonder cure of the modern century.
And as you also probably know by now - this 'wonder cure' does not cure your Candida at all but only eliminates the symptoms for a while and then your yeast infection returns with a vengeance.
The problem is that these types of medicines tend to make the problem worse due to the way that they work - they kill of both harmful as well as 'good' bacteria and causes imbalances in the body.
But even most natural solutions for Candida fall short of offering a complete solution. The reason for this is that they focus on the three most obvious solutions and fail to take the steps through to a complete cure.
