Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 I never heard of yeast comming out unless the stool is muchy. Yeast comes out once it is killed off and dead. If your son is experiencing die-off giving him a laxative will help get the dead yeast out of the gut. Then he won't feel so achy and crummy. Have you tried him on caprylic acid to kill yeast? That worked almost as good as Nystatin for me. Pro Biotics never did much for me. And I had big problems with constipation.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hind site, chronic hard poop/pellet formed poops for my daughter for her entire 8 yrs should have been my number one clue of yeast. She ate fruit, veggies, and tons of water. Because she went every day I never really considered it to be a form of constipation. When I finally was enlightened to what was really going on in her gut last year, (horrible yeast issues), this too was a major concern of mine-to get that stuff out effectively. There are allot of constipation ideas that work wonders for kids, you just have to find the one that works on your child. Dana's website has a summary of ideas. For us, magnesium does the trick. Can't begin to tell you the relief in knowing she know has normal movements. Test out the different options, you'll find something. Take care, Kari [ ] Yeast Excretion Question-How to Make Stool Softer??? Everyone, My son is having a really bad yeast flare up (behavior has gone really downhill lately). We are treating with several different probiotics. I read somewhere that in order for yeast to come out via stool, it has to be mushy. Unfortunately, my guy's poops are really hard. Is there anything we can use (besides a drug store stool softener) to make his poops more mushy? Sorry for the gross out factor but I need to know...

I don't know about that..... > > Is there anything we can use (besides a drug store stool softener) to make his poops more mushy? magnesium will make stool softer. So will vitamin C, if you give " enough " of it, but the dose varies from person to person. (If you give more vitamin C than the body needs, you get diareah -- this is expected and predictable. Just the dose varies.) good wishes, Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
