10 Home Remedies For Oral Thrush
Home Remedy #6: Echinacea
Echinacea is an herb popularly used in combating the flu and cold among other medical conditions. It contains a wide variety of beneficial substances, some of which are antimicrobial while others interact with the immune system positively, thus boosting the body’s defenses against infections and disease. Candida thrives in an atmosphere of reduced immunity. Therefore, immunity boosting echinacea goes a long way in helping the body defend itself against candida overgrowth.
To combat thrush, adults should take an average of two to four milliliters of echinacea tincture daily. Echinacea tea may also be taken, even by breastfeeding women. However, they should limit their intake to one to two cups per day.
