No: Skin candidia can treated with cream. If you oral candida oral antifungals will eradicate and probiotics can recolonize your bowel flora. Systemic candida occurs only in very sick individuals who are undergoing chemotherapy or someone with has aids.

No such thing: There is no such thing as "systemic candida" that causes various physical and emotional symptoms in outwardly healthy people, despite all the noise about it online. All humans normally have candida in the intestines, genital tract, and on the skin. Localized inflammation (e.g. vaginal yeast infection, etc) can occur but usually not serious. Neither molasses nor soda water will have any effect.
