Guest guest Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 We seem to have had some success fighting Candida with Caprylic Acid from Solgar. There is another name for it and it has been mentioned a lot on an internet list - this one?. I just forget if it is SF722 or something sounding like it. Anyone want to chime in and help us out here?

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 You've got it right; it's Thorne's SF722.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 I have some of the Thorne's SF722 and I don't know if this is the same as caprylic acid, but the main ingredient is 10-undecenoic acid (derived from castor bean oil). Is this the same formula? I'm giving one gel cap a day for a few days and then rotate to biocidin, grapefruit seed extract, or olive leaf extract for a few days. I'm hoping this will help enough to avoid the diflucan. Sharon > > You've got it right; it's Thorne's SF722.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Sharon, Hi, I have been off the list for a while and I am just getting caught up. We are one of the few rotating flagyl and diflucan to keep the yeast and bacteria down. I noticed that you stated below that you try to avoid diflucan. What is the reason for that? I'm just curious if your son can't tolerate it or you know something bad about it?
