Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide)
As a result of this little misinformation, people stopped taking niacinamide and candida and yeast infections skyrocketed. Now the reason for the mistake was relatively simple, the scientist was apparently doing a study on longevity on yeast cells. Apparently in higher animals, fruit flies included, the effect of adding niacinamide resulted in longer life of 15%, as well as human embryo cells.
Therefore, if you have candida, yeast infection, or possibly even a UTI (urinary tract infection), taking niacinamide between 100-500 mg/day could solve this mystery that doctors have a hard time suppressing. In fact, you can expand this idea into applying the use of niacinamide NOT NIACIN, as a means of controlling fungus, since fungus is a relatively close cousin of the yeast also.
This is interesting, since in medicine the two most hardest organism to kill is actually fungus and yeast. It is almost a death sentence if you have this and getting rid of it may mean endless nightmare. Who knows, perhaps dissolving niacinamide with vinegar will be helpful in relieving your toe nail fungus infections.
Therefore a possibility exists from the point of view of biological terrain, candida, yeast and fungus infection is a form of niacinamide deficiency.

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
I would like to comment on niacin for fungus infections and ask Ted some questions. I read about using niacin in the form of "inositol hexanicotinate" for acne. Within a week of taking 500mg per day of niacin/inositol hexanicotinate all my cysts are gone and other acne is totally gone. I have had acne for over 30 years and this to me is a miracle. My acne has always increased after antibiotic use and also is accompanied by fungus or candida symptoms. My fungal symptoms have lessened substantially in just a week too! The only problem is my insomnia is much worse now. I notice that the niacin seems to block my calcium because I get particular symptoms from low calcium and when I take niacin my calcium no longer works for my insomnia or my low calcium symptoms.
Questions.. What is your advice or thoughts on the niacin blocking my calcium? And.. Is the inositol hexanicotinate form of niacin also considered antifungal in the research you mentioned? Thanks much!

- a wormwood combination product (from vitacost online) that contains wormwood, black walnut, cloves, quassia and male fern root.
- white oak bark taken on an empty stomach with a digestive enzyme,
- a really good probiotic (not one from your local drugstore)
- super strength odorless garlic capsules
It's very important to keep your body alkaline and a fizzy alkalizer with potassium bicarbonate and natural alkalizers works a lot better than baking soda to do this. I buy a good one online from swanson's.
I must eat complex carbs for energy, and so I take these remedies when the candida gets bad.

Just so anyone else who is fighting the nightmare Candida. What this person just said about Xylitol and probiotics is the only thing I have tried so far that I'm seeing real results with! I have literally been reading on here and pubmed for years and going to many different doctors to get my life back from the horrible disease Candida . When I say I have tried everything I mean that I have tried everything under the sun. 10 pass ozone, high dose iodine I mean like up to a 1000 mg a day, all the big pharma pills, MMS, turpentine, oh the list goes on and on . After 2 days of putting Xylitol in mouth and let's it slowly Dissolve and eating about a 1/2 cup a day. Not only do I feel better but that white coating I have had on my tongue is 70% gone. I can't believe this at all. It seems to good to be true. But I will keep you posted and BIG BIG thanks to the person who posted their story!
