Is the tea tree oil for external use only, or is it taken internally? I have long suspected that I might have a candida overgrowth, and have briefly tried taking Jarro-Dophilus, but I seemed to have a " bad' reaction to it. Felt " funny " and mind was " fuzzy " which was what I was attempting to eliminate. Maybe this reaction was a good sign and I should have stayed with it? Thanks for your suggestions.

Tea Tree oil can be taken internally as long as it is produced in such a way that it is food grade. This means processed without petroleum solvents (grain alcohol solvent is okay) or other chemicals that are incompatible with the human body. I have never taken Olive Leaf extract, but many people I know really value its effectiveness. I am not familiar with the particular brand of intestinal flora you mention. There are only a few reasons I can think of why you might feel fuzzy after ingesting it: either it was prepared with dairy, to which you are having an allergic reaction; it contains something else in it to which you are reacting badly; or the candida are being crowded out and killed (due to a re-establishment of healthy intestinal flora, which is what you want to happen), and the die-off is making you feel worse before you feel better (which often happens). You may want to try it for a couple of weeks and see if you feel better by the end of that time period. I hope this is helpful.
