No because:: The concept of Candida overgrowth in the gut causing multiple symptoms is not supported by science and is not a recognized medical illness. Nor is the concept of Candida die off.

Yes: Yes, certain probiotics may help to kill candida resulting in a Jarisch-Herxheimer or die-off reaction. This is caused by toxins from the dead yeast which can trigger inflammatory cytokines. Drinking more water, taking chlorella and/or charcoal, a good multivitamin, liposomal glutathione, milk thistle and natural anti-inflammatory agents like curcumin should help.Die-off symptoms lessen over time.
