RE: Another yeast question - Candidase or Candex

[Guest guest]

Hi Robbie

Another question please, I've been reading post about Candidase and

Candex. My daughter doesn't swallow capsules. Can I open the Candidase

or Candex capsules and use them like the Houston enzymes and put them

in the her drinks or on her food?

>>>Absolutely fine, we do it this way too

Is this something I'd use for maintenance? How much should I start

with?

>>>Yes you can use for maintenance, we use it just for flares now. Start at

1/2 I think and work up to 2 if you have issues, 1 for maintenance. Be sure

to give it on an empty stomach for maximum effect.

It has little or no taste so she should be fine with it in a drink, the caps

are big though, bigger than HNI so there is quite alot of powder.

Good luck

Hi~

I use (and love) Candex. For my non-pill swallowing children, I just

empty out the capsule into a drink. Viola! I saw very nice results

when I started Candex over a year ago particularly with my one son

who was given a ton of antibiotics. As with anything, I recommend

starting slowly and working your way up, although I personally dont

recall a die-off reaction with Candex. I dont think it's supposed to

cause one, but our kids are so sensitive that I would start slowly

anyway. I have never tried Candidase so I cannot offer an opinion

about that one.

Good luck!

Don't know about the two you sugested but I open the Culturelle capsule and

dump it on my 2 year old's tongue. It tastes fine - not like some which

have a distinct powdered milk taste. So if the other two taste bad, maybe

try Culturelle.

Hi AJ,

I want to try Culturelle and was wondering how I should start and

what the maintenance level is for that? It's good to know that the

taste is well tolerated.

Also, beside the enzymes do you have to avoid dosing it with

anything else? I'm trying to combine as many things as I can.

Thanks,

Robbie

We never saw a difference with the Candidase. The Candex worked for us but

has to taken on an empty stomach 2 x per day. We followed the directions on

the box. Good luck!

P.S. I just want to say that my daughter is doing remarkably well with

the diet and the Houston enzymes. I'm seeing more language, humor,

happiness, sleep, eye contact along with better stools. She's only

been on them for about a month. Thanks to this group, my daughter is

on the road to recovery.
