Re: Yeast and bacteria indication in organic acid test

[Guest guest]

Yes, the result is very likely wrong. One physician told me that there is a

50% error rate in the organic acid testing. If you see symptoms of yeast,

then it is likely that your observations are more correct than the test.

Have you tried Candex? One thing you might consider is to try giving

Candex, and then if you see " sandy " stools, that would be a symptom of yeast

die-off, which would be an indication that there is yeast.

Hope this helps,

" I have just received the result of an Organic Acid Test. Among many

things, it stated that my daughter is low in yeast, but high in

bacteria (Clostridia). "

Clostridia cannot be remedied by SCD alone because clostridia can feed

on carbohydrates as well as protein.

S. Boulardii can be used as well as drugs like Vancomycin.

,

Thank you so much for your post.

My daughter doesn't have red cheeks, doesn't have red rim round the

anus, doesn't usually have rashes, doesn't have white coating on

tongue or mouth.

She does have a big tummy though she's skinny. But her tummy got

bigger AFTER she has started SCD. The ring around her eyes also got

darker AFTER she has started SCD.

Could Clostridia also cause the big tummy? Could it be that SCD

controls her yeast and there is a Clostridia overgrowth? Am I making

it worse by putting her on SCD?
