Many years ago, verging on pneumonia, I was given some powerful antibiotics which created a candida problem. My solution focused on diet (plus supplements) and I was able to see improvement right away. After three months, I felt better than ever before, and although not intended, I lost 25 pounds - that was a bonus.

Basically, I cut out all sugars, starches, and most dairy except for buttermilk (the fermentation is actually helpful), and that included many vegetables as well as all fruit. Don’t expect a quick fix - although some of the things posted here by other anons will be helpful (i.e., coconut oil, oil of oregano, etc.) it won’t do any good if your diet continues to “feed” the candida. Anything with yeast should also be eliminated. My meals consisted mainly of all kinds of meat, fish, eggs, and green leafy vegetables - all cooked….nothing raw (this makes for less stress on the digestive system). I also used plenty of butter. Once a week, I indulged in a [very] dark chocolate bar (low sugar, hardly any dairy).

This may sound restrictive, however when you focus on what you CAN eat instead of what you can’t, you discover some wonderful new options. May God bless you with good health.
