Can The Candida Diet Cause Eye Side Effects?

by Eric Bakker N.D.

It’s not uncommon with a Candida cleanse to have old symptoms return. If itchy, crusty eyes is a condition you’ve had before, it isn’t surprising that it resurfaces during a cleanse.

During a Candida cleanse, several symptoms can occur as part of the detoxification process. The skin can get itchy, you may develop a rash. There can be discharge from different parts of the body. Maybe your eyes will weep, or your nose will run. Sometimes the tongue gets discolored, gas increases, and bad breath develops. All sorts of things can happen with Candida cleanse. I’ve seen people lose some hair or get dandruff. The most common symptoms are body odor, skin changes, and bowel symptoms. Fatigue is common.

Headache, joint pain, muscle pain, and fatigue are all symptoms related to the immune system doing a bit of housekeeping. So, if these things occur with the cleanse, go with it.

When you’re cleaning out the inside of the body, the toxins must go somewhere. The toxins may go into the bloodstream or be pushed out of the body through discharge. The eyes certainly can get symptomatic during a Candida cleanse. I’ve got no doubt about it. I’ve seen all kinds of strange things occur with people going through cleanses.

If problems with your eyes are particularly bothersome, you can clean the eyes up a bit. Use a facecloth to wipe away the crust gently. You could also use a little bit of colloidal silver in an eyecup, a small eye bath with a bit of lukewarm, sterile water. Rinse the eye in the colloidal silver to avoid developing getting blepharitis, or any infections of or around the eye. Dilute colloidal silver is one of the best compounds for eyes. Use it at a concentration of 10 parts per million, which works out to about two or three drops in a little eye cup. It works very well.
