You should reduce the dose. As most Candida sufferers are deficient in digestive enzymes, supplement these, as they are needed to digest the dead Candida and help the excretion. Drink plenty of water and keep bowel movements regular at all costs.

In the first month or so avoid all sugars, fruit based or otherwise. Sugars feed Candida.

This is a feature of Candida. Use digestive enzymes to aid digestion as Candida has deprived your body of making these. Avoid obvious causes, fried foods, alcohols. Acidity will subside when you get digestive Candida under control.

No. You should not take my advice as a substitute for professional medical advice. My experience in Candida stems from my own infection and its treatment over the years. After many other trials of commercial preparations for Candida, we found Threelac. It was the most effective probiotic for my own Candida. We have since helped hundreds on people improve their quality of life (not to say eradicate their Candida problem).
You should not use any advice found on this or any other website as a substitute to seeking professional medical advice if you have a query regarding your health or that of friends or family

Threelac is a probiotic, similar to the friendly cultures found in Yoghurt, and probiotic drinks. It is the die off that disagrees with you. It shows you are sensitive to the waste products of the dead Candida. Slow the dose (right down to a ¼ packet if need be) and only increase very slowly. Ensure you are supplementing with digestive enzymes and the minerals and vitamins that your body needs to function correctly and that bowel movements are regular. Drink plenty of water. A slow dose is better than none at all! But do not forget the essential minerals that you need because you have the Candida infection.

A pleasant lemon flavour.

Yes. The Lactobacillus is a bacterial culture, not a milk product. (But the names do sound similar)

The yeast will feed the Threelac while it reaches the areas of the gut that the Candida resides in. When it finds Candida it will feed on that.

Its partly for flavour, but also as nourishment of the Threelac bacteria while they search out the Candida.

This product is used for Bowel Cleanse. It is said to rejuvenate the colon and relieve constipation without becoming habit forming, as some laxatives can be. The Oxygen will provide much revitalising to the lining of the colon while the magnesium draws water across the colon wall for constipation. Long impacted faecal matter is thus removed. There are 180 capsules in a bottle and up to 6 capsules can be taken daily for a month to rejuvenate the colon.

Candida and Dysbiosis can deactivate the production of digestive enzymes in the Intestines. This protects the Candida from attack, but also prevents healthy digestion. Bloating, acidity, wind and other digestive problems result. Bad die off reactions are another symptom that you are lacking Protease and Lipase enzymes. Active Enzymes are plant based digestive enzymes, together with two other probiotics designed to supplement your needs and aid healthy digestion.

A non essential amino acid (i.e. can be made in the intestines – in healthy people). Aids in the detoxification of Ammonia. Used in repairs to intestinal lining damage (repairs to leaky gut). Some reports indicate useful in treatment of Depression. Improves brain function. In dysbiotic people this will be deficient as the bacterial cultures used to make it are compromised.

Magnesium is important in the production and transport of energy, for muscle contraction/relaxation, for synthesis of proteins and it assists in enzyme function.
It is found to be deficient in cases of Dysbiosis. Deficiency may cause muscle weakness/cramps, muscle twitch, hyper excitability, Insomnia, poor memory, confusion and apathy. Severe deficiency may cause, tingling, numbness, cramps, migraines and arrhythmia (uneven heart beats) recommended daily allowance 3-400mg daily as Magnesium Citrate (more easily absorbed). Also associated with low Calcium.

Calcium is important in the structure of bones and teeth, but also for absorption of Vitamins and the transport of nutrients across cell walls, nerve and muscle function and regulation of blood cholesterol levels. Calcium is stored in the bones. In cases of deficiency it is reabsorbed causing osteoporosis. Deficiency can cause Palpitations, nervousness, numbness, muscle twitch/spasm, Poor sleep, tooth decay and Osteoporosis (thinning of bones).
Recommended Daily requirement 1000mg (1500mg post menopausal women).

Vitamin B is essential for Nervous system function, blood cell production, and absorption of Calcium in the Intestines. It is found to be deficient in dysbiotic sufferers as it is synthesised in the intestines by beneficial bacteria. It requires a healthy gut for absorption. Deficiencies cause a host of problems, anaemia, confusion and poor memory, poor growth in children, hair loss, and loss of appetite, depression, fatigue, constipation, numbness and tingling in the hands and feet, and a sore/swollen tongue. Especially look out for Vit B12, sublingual (dissolves under the tongue)

Zinc is another crucial mineral. Essential for some 200 enzymatic biochemical pathways, for a healthy body. Including, DNA, RNA synthesis, immune function and resistance to infection, storage and release of insulin, Thymic hormones, metabolism of all food groups. Deficiency results in skin complaints, anorexia, mental confusion, poor immune response, depression, mental health complications, loss of libido, stunted growth. Supplementation is simple. 15mg of Zinc gluconate absorbs rapidly and long term use has been found to have huge benefits.

In your diet, all sugars and refined carbohydrates. Alcohol, yeast products, vinegars mushrooms etc. But otherwise you can follow a pretty much normal diet.

We all have the yeast format in our gut and the friendly bacteria keep these in check. When the friendly bacteria are damaged, by antibiotics, steroids, the pill or a parasite attack, they allow the bad bacteria and fungi to become dominant. These crowd further the beneficial bacteria and Candida then morphs from the yeast format to the invasive fungal format.

We were the first to introduce Threelac to England in May 2003. We have suffered the problems of Candida and have come through the other side so we have a long and personal experience with Candida and its eradication. We offer advice and support; we only sell items that are related to Candida. Since then the bandwagon has rolled on and websites have sprung up selling Threelac in addition to their other offerings. We have gained the experience that is necessary to guide through what is a complex issue of Candida. We match other prices available on the Internet.

We started using First Class post, but too many went astray or were delayed in deliveries. Threelac will not fit in letterboxes, which does not help in ensuring you get it when you expect it. Special Delivery means you get the Threelac Next Business day before 1pm – or your fee is refunded.

This may be difficult, but you must avoid these at least for the first 6 – 8 weeks. Candida is creating these urges, as it directly feeds the Candida. Threelac will kill Candida, but there is little point in antagonising the course. Consider that when you have Candida beaten, you should be able to live a ‘normal’ life.

Threelac is a powder in a small packet. Start with 1 packet a day, dissolve on the tongue and swallow with a glass water. Then eat on top. When you get to 4 or 5 a day spread over the meals of the day.

Shake the bottle, and start with 2 drops 3 times a day in a glass of water. Increase by 1 drop each day until you reach a total of 21 drops a day. Do not exceed 21 drops a day.
In cases of stomach acidity, reduce or discontinue until some digestive Candida has been removed. Do not take close to bedtime as it can act as a stimulant to your metabolism. If you experience a hoarse throat stop the drops for a week and restart from 2 drops 3x daily.

For best results take at bedtime. If you have bloating you may take one with each meal.

It’s the friendly bacteria in the gut that have been damaged and it is these that make Vitamin B and allow the absorption of the minerals Magnesium, Zinc and Calcium, among others. These are essential to a healthy body.

Constipation is a result of dysbiosis. The peristaltic muscle contractions of the bowel have been weakened and Candida changes the faecal consistency. It is essential to normalise bowel movements urgently by whatever it takes. We can offer a Colon cleanser, Oxc Oxy, which will rejuvenate the colon muscle with Oxygen and draw water across the wall to remove long impacted faecal matter. Highly recommended.

At least 2 litres a day, and gradually move up to 4 litres a day. This willhelp the liver with its detoxification and cleansing duties to eradicate the toxins of the daily metabolic activity. (Avoid tea and coffee)
How long will it be before I notice any difference from taking Threelac?
A rule of thumb is to allow 30 days. Follow what we have said in our instructions and these pages, ensure you are changing your diet and that bowel movements are regular. If by 30 days you have not noticed a change ensure you have relayed that to me. I may be able to help. The minerals and vitamin supplements are important as deficiency of these is often the symptom of a Candida infection.

It does depend on the severity of the infection and in a smaller degree to age. As a rule of thumb allow between 1 and 2 months for each year that you have been ill with Candida, There are other probiotics that may speed up that time. Note that you may have had Candida longer than you think.

No. But you should do all you can to get the good bacteria back into healthy balance in the intestines if you want to have a strong immune and hence be able to prevent Candida from returning. Some people take 1 straw a day as an insurance policy.

We say NO. There is some anecdotal evidence that Oregano oil interferes with the efficacy of Threelac.

Take them. Just be sure that when the course is finished that you supplement your diet with as many different strains of Probiotic as you can get. Start to take Threelac again, from the low dose. Never go against the advice of a Medical practitioner as a result of something you have read on this (or any other) website.

When you get your life back you should think about stopping and having it in reserve for incidences of stress or illness. You will need to consider other probiotics to rebuild the gut flora to a healthy state. This will speed and ensure your recovery and make it permanent. Your body will then be doing the tasks that it should, naturally.
Can I eat foods with added sugar?
Ideally not, but be practical. Most processed foods contain added sugar. Try to eat less processed food and more fresh fruit and vegetables. Be practical, its best not to be neurotic about it.

With Threelac you do not have to follow a strict Candida Diet. But you do need to avoid Sugar, Alcohol, Yeast products, mould cheeses and mushrooms. These are all direct foodstuffs for Candida, so try not to feed it while you are killing it off!

No. It is stable at room temperature. Ignore anyone who wants to tell you otherwise.

We have not heard of any cases where Threelac has harmed anybody. It is merely a Probiotic, similar to those found in Yoghurt, Actimel™ or Yacult. It is a friendly bacterial culture similar to the 300 or so that you should find in a healthy gut system.

Approx 4 – 7 days after the first dose you may feel ‘die off’ symptoms, where the level of dead Candida is higher than your body can deal with. This may feel like flu or a headache. When you have worked through this and had 4 – 5 days clear, you can increase the dose.

It depends on how long / how severely you suffer from Candida. But allow between 1-2 months for each year that you have been infected at an average spend of £ 40- 60/ month. Remember it is guaranteed for 60 days so if you do not start to feel better in that time we give you a refund. Once you know it works and you begin to get your life back , you will consider it very good value.

Candida should only become a problem for those with very serious immune diseases (Cancer , HIV or burns victims), but we know and research has verified that as much as 70% of the population has Candida to some degree or other. Medical researchers are starting to recognise the huge implications of Candida. You may well have your own story, as we have, of frequent visits to your GP, test after test, visit after visit, simply to pronounce no findings, or diagnose IBS and offer a mild antidepressant.

Yes - there are no conflicts with any other medications.

Yes. You may remove the infection and prevent passing it to your child. Improvements may be more difficult to appreciate because of hormone fluctuations and the fact that Candida thrives in a system of changing levels in hormones. Consult your midwife or obstetrician about probiotics before taking Threelac.

Yes. It has been found to be very effective with children and they tend to recover much more quickly. You may like to look at the data coming out regarding Attention deficit disorder and even some levels of Autism.

First of all call us – preferably at the 30-40 day mark so we can guide you if that is necessary, but if you are sure that there has been no improvement in the 60 day period , return the empty cans for a refund. We have no Quibble with that

Threelac is microencapsulated, so it arrives in the intestines undamaged. This is unusual. Most other probiotics need to start with many billions of cells as they only anticipate that 10-15 % will get through the acidity of the stomach. Try to look for enteric coated or microencapsulated probiotics as these will me more effective.

Streptococcus means berry shaped. It is used to describe the shape not the toxicity. There are other similar shaped bacteria which are toxic.

This is classic die off . The good news is that it confirms you have Candida and that Threelac is effective. You should reduce the dose or increase the days between step increases. Get some digestive enzymes to help break down the dead Candida. Ensure your bowel movements are regular and drinks at least 3 litres of water a day.

The chances are that all members of the same family have Candida in some form. A mother may well have passed it to children at birth. In very young children you need to start on very small doses and be able to read the die off signs. They may feel very uncomfortable, but not be able to express it, other than being fractious.
