10 Home Remedies For Oral Thrush
Home Remedy #9: Grapefruit Seed Extract
As the word suggests, grapefruit seed extract comes from the seeds of grapefruits. The extract has broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties, making it a useful addition to this list of home remedies for oral candidiasis. Grapefruit extract can be used both internally and topically for fungal and yeast control and is one of the most commonly used organic treatments for oral thrush. Grapefruit extract kills the Candida albicans fungus, reducing their numbers and allowing the body to heal.
You can apply grapefruit extract topically to clear the thrush or take it internally. To take it internally, add 2 teaspoons of the oil to a cup of warm water and drink it two or three times daily. The mixture reduces inflammation and promotes healing of the damaged parts of the mouth.
