Mary, there is a great article about this on the web by Michael Coyle called
fungus on the website for the journal  EXPLORE! for the professional. I
don't have the url handy but you could surely find it with a quick search.
Others on this list have discussed the benefits of chlorella when candida
results from mercury poisoning but that doesn't seem to be the case for
your son -- just a terrible assault to the immune system. One thing to look
in would be the blood electrification and magnetic pulser of Bob Beck which
was discussed on this list several months ago under the heading "herpes".
You can get more information on this from the SOTA instruments website as
well, and there are a few articles by Beck on the EXPLORE! site too.  I
don't have any evidene that it will help candida in the gut, but what it
does is neutralize all the viruses bacteria and other pathogens in the blood
so that they can't parasitize the cells that normally become their hosts and
allow them to multiply; the immune system then has an easier time getting
rid of them becuase it has so many fewer pathogens to deal with.  It gave me
a great boost to my health!
