Hey ,

Yes, there is!

I will try to give you more than holistic drops. I will provide you with some tools that will help you support your entire body! A yeast infection on the tongue is also called ‘Oral Thrush’ or ‘Thrush’
What causes thrush?Most people have small amounts of Candida fungus in the mouth, digestive tract and skin. They are normally kept in check by other bacteria and microorganisms in the body. When illnesses, stress, or medications disturb this balance, the fungus grows out of control and causes thrush. Wearing dentures, especially upper dentures, or having conditions that cause dry mouth (like sleep apnea or mouth breathing) can increase the risk of oral thrush.
How to support your immune systemHelping your immune system be the best it can be, requires nutrients like vitamin D, vitamin A, vitamin C & zinc. Make sure you have adequate amounts in your diet. This can help you fight off the infection and helps to keep the infection away as well. Dosing vitamin D depends on your current blood levels. Up to 4000 IU taken with food is considered safe without consulting a doctor where I live. I sometimes recommend my clients temporarily to go even higher, but since I don’t know your current health status I recommend you talk with a practitioner/doctor first if you would like to explore that option. Here are some other dosages you can use SHORT TERM to boost your immune function.
• Fully formed vitamin A 10.000 units per day for a maximum of 2 weeks. I usually recommend a vitamin A supplement Pure Encapsulations (click here to find the supplement in the online supplement store Fullscript. You need to have signed on first)
• Zinc: For females, I recommend 40 mg, and for males 50 mg. Remember to lower your dosage after your immune-boosting days. 8 mg is what is daily recommended. Continuing with high dosages of zinc can lower your body’s copper levels since zinc and copper compete for absorption. (Click here for a liquid supplement also from Pure Encapsulations).

Zinc can cause nausea in some people. The risk of nausea is lower when you divide the dosages over the day and it’s even lower if you combine your zinc supplement with a meal.
• Vitamin C: 2x 500 mg daily – and if your bowel tolerates it you can increase the dose slowly to 2x 1000 mg daily. This you could do as long as needed. Here is a liposomal form of vitamin C I often recommend to others because liposomal vitamin C is better absorbed.

Bernadette has an immune boosting protocol described in her B’s Medicine Cabinets Must-Haves.
‘Holistic Drops’ to fight fungusThe brand Biocidin Botanicals is specialized in products that help to fight fungus with natural components. They have different products for the entire GI tract.

Food Choices MatterYeast often thrives on sugary foods and alcohol. Try to avoid them as well as starchy vegetables. But here are some other foods that might help:
• Ginger – You could for example make ginger tea
• Coconut oil – or MCT oil (this is high in caprylic acid which has antimicrobial properties)
• Garlic
• Onions
• Fermented foods – to help restore the microbiome on the tongue.

These are my go-to foods. Some spices like cinnamon & turmeric have some antifungal research behind them as well.

Ginger, garlic & onion taste delicious together and are often used in curries and Asian salad dressings. Stifado – a greek traditional dish – is full of onion, garlic & cinnamon. You might like those dishes as well.

I hope this helps!
