Alternative Medicine/Detoxification of triclosan or triclocarban

Advertisement


Question
For years I have been using anti-bacterial soaps.   But recently I found out that the active ingredient in anti-bacterial soaps (triclosan or triclocarban) can soak into the skin and cause damage to the liver, kidneys and lungs.   This is of double concern to me since I already have systematic candidiasis.   Do you any ideas about how to detoxify from possible triclosan or triclocarban?   And something that would not interfere with my current supplement and probiotic regime.   This is what I am taking to detoxify and clear out the candidiasis:

Modifilan (www.modifilan.com)

Vitamin B-12

Three Lac,Oxygen Plus, Total Immune Booster (www.43lac.com)

Coconut Oil

Garlic supplement

Cranberry supplement once a week  

Answer
I would suggest using
a combination call EnviroDetox

For the candida I would suggest using
Caprylic Acid and Probiotic 11

Garlic is not enough for this and over a perdio of time can overheat the body, esp if you are an O blood type.

I would also look at doing a colon cleanse.
Would need to know your blood type to know which is best.
