Natural Dog Candida RemediesNatural dog candida remedies, such as herbs and enzymes, can be used to treat dog yeast infections from the inside out.
Avoid Conventional DrugsSince drugs like steroids and vaccines can weaken the immune system and thus causing dog candida, avoid these medications and other conventional treatments that can disrupt the immune system. Consult and work with a holistic veterinarian instead.Check for HypothyroidismAs mentioned in our page on Dog Yeast Infections, there seems to be a direct connection between dog yeast infections and hypothyroidism, so check the dog's thyroid levels first before implementing any natural dog candida remedies.Proper DietOne of the most important natural dog candida remedies is proper diet. If your dog is on a grain-based diet, switch it to a meat-based, grain-free, starch-free, and low-carbohydrate diet. It is an easy way to reduce the population of Candida albicans in your dog. A very healthy, natural, and organic diet suitable for dogs with yeast infections (actually, it is good for dogs with or without yeast infections!) is (click on the picture):*For added benefit, coconut oil can be added to the dog food (1 teaspoon coconut oil per 10 pounds of body weight). The fatty acids in coconut oil can kill candida and other damaging organisms without harming friendly bacteria. The oil also speeds the healing of perforations in the intestinal wall - effective for leaky gut syndrome. A good product of coconut oil is Nutiva Organic Coconut Oil. Top Use Enzymes as AntioxidantsThe next important element of natural dog candida remedies is enzymes. Enzymes are essential not only for digestion but also for helping to cleanse dangerous free radicals and toxins from the dog's body, thus they play a very important role in fighting yeast infections in dogs. However, very often enzymes are destroyed when food is cooked. By supplementing and replacing the enzymes destroyed during the processing of your dog's food, it ensures that toxins are removed from the dog's body.Use Herbs as FungicidesSome herbs are good natural dog candida remedies. They are effective in controlling yeast overgrowth. The most beneficial ones include: Black Walnut Leaf In China, black walnut leaf extract has been used for years to treat tapeworm. It is antiseptic, antifungal, and anti-parasitic. Topically, it is very beneficial for eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, boils, itch, and even skin parasites such as ringworm. Olive Leaf The leaf of olive contains anti-bacterial and anti-fungal qualities. It is most effective in treating yeast / fungus problems like Candida, systemic yeast infections or leaky gut syndrome. Pau d'arco The inner bark of this South American tree is also effective against fungi and yeasts. In addition, it has also been shown to have anticancer activity. TopUse Herbs to Strengthen the Immune SystemThere are a lot of useful herbs that can be used to strengthen a dog's immune system. The most common ones include:
Use Probiotics and Digestive EnzymesProbiotics are popular natural dog candida remedies. They can be added to the dog's food and they help to re-establish the "Friendly Bacteria" environment in the dog's digestive system. However, proper timing is important. First, we have to reduce the candida population (by taking the above steps). Then, two weeks after that, beneficial bacteria can be effectively added to the system.Putting It All Together - Natural Dog Candida RemediesHere is a natural dog yeast infection kit that is safe and effective:The Final Step - DetoxificationUsing the step-by-step action plan above works, but it takes time (weeks and sometimes months depending on the physical conditions of the patient). Moreover, very often, the symptoms of the dog patient may appear to worsen after the initial treatment using the Nzymes Candida Yeast Kit. The dog may also exhibit some flu-like symptoms such as exhaustion, body aches, diarrhea, and nausea. This is normal. The reason? When large numbers of yeasts or fungi die, their physical remains and the toxins they produce remain in the dog's system. These toxic substances and remains overwhelm the body, and it takes time for the body to eliminate such toxins, during which symptoms such as itching or skin breakouts may increase. At this final stage, it is important to supply the dog's body with systemic enzyme supplements which help significally during detoxification. They circulate in the blood and break down inflammation and digest dead candida cells. Here is a good systemic enzyme product:To Recap ...If your dog suffers from recurring infections of the skin, ear, or urinary tract, chances are these infections are caused by an underlying root problem - yeast infection. However, very often, conventional veterinarians fail to see the "big picture" and, instead of eliminating the root cause, simply prescribe drugs to get rid of the secondary problem or problems. If you are one of those dog parents who do not want to see your dog suffer from recurring infections (and who do not want to spend $$$ on medical bills), consider dealing with dog candida the natural way. Natural dog candida remedies are safe and they address the root problem and so you can see good and long-term results.
