I have to add here that ALA helped me most, in addition to the anti-candida diet. Having these two, and you can't go wrong, if your body works even a bit like mine.
Other anti-oxidants are just insignificant compared to ALA; I haven't even done 3 full rounds on ALA, but the two first cleared up brain fog and the third improved my blurry vision significantly, while the vit C & E just made me sick with no additional noticeable benefits. Low dose ALA chelation (20 mg for me per dose, every 3 hours) had amazingly few side-effects as well. While on ALA, urinary frequency increased, and the intestines started growling, and so you have a proof that something good actually happens, with some stuff coming out both ways. I'm not noticing any "redistribution effects" so I stop when I want. Very good.
