You might try local government agency, I think I recall seeing stuff on the web from New York, for example, as community service.

CANDIDA PROTOCOL:

Most people are aware of the Candida diet..but I will just outline here the main foods to avoid. Obviously, the more serious the problem, the more restrictive you need to be.

Avoid:

Sugar,white, brown, natural, maple, date, etc.
Old Cheeses
Melons
Grapes
Mushrooms
Beer
Vinegars
Dried Fruit

These are the worst...other people find it best to avoid dairy and wheat products.

http://www.sheilashea.com/candida.html

Candida lives naturally inside our intestines in balance with beneficial bacteria. Twenty-six strains are known and one company in Japan, Rikken, sells them to the public. Candida produces 79 toxins according to Vitamin Research Products Inc journal (3/99Vol.13#3).

Sugar activates candida metabolism and some of its by-products are neurotoxins such as formaldehyde, alcohol and acetlyaldehyde.

Candida therapy starts with eliminating their energy foods from the diet, killing the fungus with various remedies, cleaning the intestinal walls, rebuilding the intestinal walls and rebalancing intestinal flora. As with any disease, candida healing also begins with an honest examination of one's emotional, mental and spiritual health.

Candida overgrowth can happen when bacterial/fungal balance in the intestines is affected adversely by drugs such as antibiotics, vaccinations, steroids, birth control pills; chemicals such as amalgam, mercury, other toxic metals, pesticides, aspartame, MSG, perfumes, industrial; diet including sugars, consistent alcohol consumption, nutritional deficiencies, overeating, and refined, canned, smoked, preserved and fried foods ; diseases such as diabetes mellitus, chronic constipation or diarrhea, genital candida; and mental/emotional/spiritual imbalances

PROTOCOL FOR CANDIDA
STRATEGIES FOR BALANCING INTESTINAL BACTERIA AND FUNGI

1. Suppress or kill the yeast with anti-fungals.

2. Deprive or starve the yeast by diet modification.

3. Cleanse the walls of the GI tract.

4. Rebuild the walls of the GI tract.

5. Rebalance bacteria/fungi in GI tract.

6. Identify and avoid drugs, chemicals, foods and other allergens such as car fumes, pollutants, insecticides, preservatives, emulsifiers and food allergens that you know trigger your candida and its symptoms. Also, avoid yeast spores released into the air by mold in areas such as bathroom, kitchen and around leaking pipes in walls. Remove the mold or move out to a dry sunny spot.

7. Build your body, immune, emotional, mental and spiritual health via a strong program of supplements including electrolyte and pH balancing, fluids, exercise, therapy and meditation.

SUPPLEMENTATION
Antifungals

Following is a list of various herbs and drugs which kill yeast/fungi.
...
Garlic is one of the most potent antimicrobial agents. It was used by Albert Schweitzer to treat amebic dysentery and by Louis Pasteur as an antibacterial. It has been shown to be effective against all but two of 26 strains of candida albicans.

It's not a parasite - it is a commensal - most of us have it but at a level that causes us no real problem.  Changes in other bacteria in our bodies that normally keep the candida fungus at bay mean that the population of candida species increases rapidly leading to symptoms.  Quite commonly this is a short course of antibiotics but also if you are ill and your immune system is diverted to deal with another infection.  Diabteics are prone to it because it likes the high sugar levels.

Treatment depends on whare the infection is

Best medicine to reduce it is fluconazole which is taken as a capsule and secreted into body tissues but reacts with lots of other drugs so check with a pharmacist before taking it.

Recurrent candial infections are often an indication of another underlying problem so repeated infection should be investigated by a physician.
