Yes, everyone has candida in their gut and hence in their stools. It is part of

the normal flora in our digestive systems. It only becomes a problem when it is

out of balance with other forms of normal flora as can happen when we take

antibiotics. Because other forms of normal flora are bacteria, they are also

likely to be killed by antibiotics. Candida are a yeast and are not affected by

antibiotics. Once the normal bacteria have been killed off, they are no longer

able to keep the level of candida in check and hence a candida infection can

occur. It is a good idea to eat plenty of yoghurt with a live culture if you are

taking antibiotics as this can help keep a balance of normal flora in your gut.

There is some Candida in our whole digestive

tract always. It is just a matter of quantity,

as in everything else. This is another thing

that the health community has totally blown off

UNLESS you specifically have AIDS or you are a

cancer patient having chemotherapy, so one has to

ask if BEFORE AIDS and CHEMOTHERAPY, were there

NO problems with Candida overgrowth, and of

course the answer has got to be no. In fact

traditional medical literature which goes into

subject more never does say it is LIMITED to AIDS

or cancer patients but merely uses those two

groups of patients as an EXAMPLE of patient with

weakened immune systems as likely to develop

overgrowth of Candida, otherwise what is the

point of having DIFFLUCAN and other antifungals

that are labels use for Candida problems. Such

things as 'other' immunosuppressant drugs and

weakness immune system from other factors,

including from exhaustion and excessive fatigue,

have been listed in traditional medical

literature but usually these doctors only get the

abreviated versions, so they really are convinced

that unless you specifically have AIDS or you are

a cancer patient, there is no way you have

trouble with Candida, which defies logic that

Candidasis is some kind of totally new disease

only of recent trouble. ALSO doctors are aware

of patients reading the internet and the YEAST

CONNECTION type books and figure you have gotten

this idea from these books and talking to other

people and blow it off for that reason too.

I was on an immunosuppressant drug but it wasn't

chemo and I discussed with my doctor symptoms of

systemic Candidas. To my amazement he seem to

have taken me seriously and wrote a Rx for

Difflucan. I went and had it filled only to find

when I got home that there was only ONE single

tablet in Rx. I was surprised. I've heard it is

powerful drug and took it but kept thinking about

it and after taking it read through package

insert only to find out the dosage of 'one' was

for 'vaginal candidas' which women get frequently

and is easily treated with home remedies....!!!

I never once mentioned my vagina, so forgot

traditional doctors on this subject. They have

been taught that having Candida is natural UNLESS

you have AIDS or are undergoing cancer treatment.

So by taking one Difflucan I gave all my Candida

effectly an 'innoculation' against the newest and

most efffective drug for it. I only go to him

when I want my insurance to cover a test now.

Otherwise I don't follow his directions unless I

first check them out myself. Sad to say. He is

also always named yearly as one of top docs in

area but is he very thorough and listens well but

only to things he has been taught in medical

school and that is what they teach...Candida is a

problem for AIDS patients. There are many other

drugs that suppress the immune system and many

other conditions, but forget that logic with

them. They apparently were not 'taught' to

think.

Thanks guys for responding to my candida question. You would think

after nine years of suffering this illness that something would be a

little better in the medical field regarding yeast and mold.

Interesting. I am sure that Yogurt is probably best. I gag at the sound of it

but take probiotics instead. I am told it does the same thing. I am wondering if

sometimes it might be better in that you can get different levels of levels of

probiotic bacteria. For example one brand I have has one billion organisms per

capsule and the Jarro-dophilus EPS brand has 4.4 billion per capsule which

includes 680 million of acidophilus (the live culture in yogurt). The Yoplait

light yogurt I have here does not specify the amount of acidophilus it contains.

What does concern me though is that it contains14g of sugar which is a food for

yeast. saying that maybe it is better to take the probiotics instead. I am not a

doctor I am just reading the labels. My grandpa on my moms side died with

candida and you are rite, I am still amazed at the lack of knowledge and/or

concern about the subject.

I will ask about the difference between the two though. It seems I am going to

have to call the doctor shortly. I am awake now with an ungodly toothache. I

have been diagnosed with candida myself and I know every time I go to the

dentist with a tooth ache they say the pain is caused by an infection and am

given antibiotics. I don't know how moronic it would be to do that in my current

state nor do I know if it would be wise to have dental work done rite now much

less have a tooth pulled. Wow what a mess I have gotten myself into. one or the

other, either way I am miserable.

Anyway I will ask about the yogurt and probiotics.

Thanks yea I was just talking about how I don't think I could

even try that yogurt without gaging. I have been interested in

learning more about the probiotics. I have heard good things but I

have no idea about dosage, etc. I am also allergic to candida since

this mold illness. Thanks for any info. I recently had a tooth ach

that I was scared to get pulled, and I put it off for some time but

I can say I felt better the day it was out. I did have to go back a

few days later because it hurt but they put something in the area

with gauze for a few days and it was fine.
