The OoO seems to really be kicking butt! This is day 3 of my die-off. I never thought I would be so happy to be feeling so baaaddd!! At least this means something is happening. And one of these days it will all be better. In the meantime, I feel like absolute crap! Bloated, gassy, rumbly, exhausted - I was doing head-bobs at my desk today! I was in the bathroom many times trying to relieve the gas. I felt like I was going to explode. It feels like a war zone in my gut!

Actually you can. Caprylic acid will take care of candida in the digestive tract and OOO will handle that and everywhere else.

A couple of compounded mixtures contain caprylic acid and OOO together with other ingredients.

Yes, I just bought some today and I too had to take a nap. What's up with that? I bought it because of skin sensitivity. I have the book the Cure is in the Cupboard and all it talks about is Oil of Oregano. I think I may use it topically. Has anyone tried that?

OOO is great topically. Use it directly or mix with a little coconut oil especially if using it vaginally.

Thanks, Zuleikaa!

I was amazed when I read that sleepiness was due to yeast die off. Now, I'm more determined than ever to get the yeast out of me. I need energy when I work, so I'm thinking about taking it at night before I go to bed. I wonder if it would interfere with my Calcium supplement.

Default When does sleepiness symptom subside?

To those of you who have been taking oregano and getting sleepy...how long did that effect last? I just took my first dose of ooo and now it's about 20 minutes later and I feel like I need to take a nap. I can't keep my eyes open!!! Strange, but it must be killing the yeast, so I'm ok with it!

Does this symptom go away? And when?
