If the cause of sore nipples during breastfeeding is Candida (yeast), an effective treatment measure is the use of Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE). Apply the *diluted* liquid grapefruit seed extract to the nipples after a feeding.

Things You’ll Need:

• Grapefruit Seed Extract (active ingredient must be "citricidal")
• Cotton balls or cotton swabs
• Distilled water

Step1

Mix very well 5-10 drops of GSE in one ounce of water (preferably, but not necessarily, distilled).

Step2

Use a cotton ball or swab to apply GSE solution to both nipples and areolas AFTER a feeding.

Step3

Use after every feeding until pain is gone and then wean down slowly over the period of at least one week.
