Yeah, unfortunately yeast seem to flare up or grow when using ALA. I got a worse problem after just one round of ALA (but I was using high doses) and I can still feel it. Very weird.

Are you on a candida diet? I have to be. I cannot even really eat carrots. I have to be careful of not just sugars, but all higher carb foods. Antifungals don't work if one is not on the diet, because they continue to kill what a person continues to feed. A neverending cycle.

I wish ALA did not cause yeast issues so much, or it would have been a good one for me to use when I was mercury toxic I think. DMSA was ok, but still had potential to cause issues as well. I just had to be very very careful. If I took DMSA whilst not adhereing to my strict diet, that's when I was in trouble. But if I stuck to the diet, I was ok.

ALA? didn't matter, still caused issues anyway!

It's good to hear it's helping you with the mercury though and that's the main thing, as you want to cure the underlying condition. You get to figure out what dose suits you the best and how long the rounds should be for you personally. Though Cutler says not to go over two weeks in onetime.
