Guest guest Posted September 15, 2002 Report Share Posted September 15, 2002 -, My son was gf/cf soy and egg free at the time and the only other things I did were use yeast free bread and really limit sugar. I felt that his diet was limited enough and did not do any of the other yeast busting diet. We used Custom pro-biotics, saccromyces boullardii, biocidin and then added grapefruit seed extract. We had him on this stuff throughout the day every day for 4 months. I felt like every minute of the day we were giving him something because we were giving him the enzymes and we had tried mega vitamin B and that did not work well for us so the Dr. had us also try super nu-thera and that was bad for my son also (he got REALLY irritable)So I just decided to treat the yeast, and then when that got under controll the no-fenol had just come out and we started that and went off the diet a couple of weeks later. I think when you are fighting yeast, sugar is a biggie. I would severely limit sugar and not worry about the rest and see how that works. My son had really bad yeast and bacteria.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2002 Report Share Posted September 15, 2002 Thanks Gillian. I didn't know that about e. strep.. OT - I love your name - that's my niece's name also. Is yours pronounced with the J sound or G? Niece is G sound. Re: / yeast diet >I think when you are fighting yeast, sugar is a biggie.
