Guest guest Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!! lol Hi Carol, Not an expert but have read up on it some and this is what I found out..... Candida is normally in the body usually in warm moist areas as it is a yeast fungus and they like warm moist areas to bloom like the intestine, the vagina and the mouth which you can usually see as they are white spots in the mouth and when it is there it is called thrush. When it is localized it can be dealt with very easily and is doubtfull that it would interfere with the thyroid etc. It is when it gets into the blood that there seems to be a problem for other things that are already not healthy, as then it is no longer in one place and being carried by the blood into every area of the body makes it more difficult to treat. Good natural anti-fungal is essential fatty acids, garlic capsules, plain yoghurt with acidophilus or pills and avoid sugar of any kind, fruit, yeast and grain. Those products cause the fungus to grow. Oat bran for fiber is OK. Yoghurt can be eaten or used as a douche if needed. There is another post that I did so if I missed anything here it could be there. Hope this helps. Dawntopper2@... wrote: Carol... How long have you been at the 150 mcg dose? Dawn can explain better on how the Candida messes with you so I'll leave that to her.... DAWN!!!!
