Guest guest Posted January 30, 1999 Report Share Posted January 30, 1999 The information I have states that MSM is good for preventing yeast infections. Says it keeps the body's PH normal and when the PH is normal the yeast can't grow. However, I wouldn't use MSM instead of acidophilus but in addition along with it!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 1999 Report Share Posted January 31, 1999 Hi guys - neat to be back on line. My question: when should I take the acidolphilus - 2 hours after the Minicin - or 2/day a.m. p.m.? What best results have you guys had?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 1999 Report Share Posted January 31, 1999 Bev, re: bunionectomy - mine required 1 " of bone removed from each foot bone, toes dropped down and pinned in place, big toe fused. I'm just out of hte cast for 1 week (operation 12/1) but I'm walking and back to almost normal daily routines. The first 3 weeks were hard. Now my toes just sort of hang there, circulation is ok etc., but no support for foot, yet. Still they are not sitting on top of my bones as they were, and less pain, no, different pain so far. Happy to be walking and able to go and do again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 1999 Report Share Posted January 31, 1999 I don't take it on the advice of my gp. He said if I had a yeast problem I could have suppositories to help with it. Interested in your bunionectomy. Was it successful. I am contemplating getting mine done so I can wear decent shoes instead of wide walking shoes.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 1999 Report Share Posted February 1, 1999 I'll give you my reasoning. There are a couple of versions. Don't take it within 2 hours of the Minocin since Minocin will kill the acidophillus...thus a waste of money and time. Also....I would take it about 1/2 hour before eating (I never can time that right, I just take it at meal time) . This is so that the acidophillus has something to " eat " so it may grow into many gaaazillions of good bacteria.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 1999 Report Share Posted February 1, 1999 Cranberry capsules, available at most health-food and high quality nutritional stores, as well as (I believe) WalMart & Sam's Club, have been reported hear to work *EXTREMELY* well. My wife reports same - very, very effective - much more so than fresh or dried cranberries or straight (unsweetened) juice or combo-juice (cran-whatever).

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Dear Friends: The recent posts about yeast concern me, and I'll tell you why. I do not have a problem with restriction diets, whether it be low-casein, low-fat, low-gluten, or probiotic, as long as the child continues to have a calorically and nutritionally balanced diet of dairy, fruit, starch, and protein sources, with a daily multivitamin with iron and fluoride. It is another thing to advocate the use of nystatin or similar antifungal products without evidence of a detected organism on culture, or empiric evidence (like athlete's foot or thrush). The indiscriminate use of oral antifungals (as well as antibiotics) can ROYALLY screw up a child's natural intestinal and skin flora, and cause severe infections from germs that are normally kept from infecting you by the competing " good " germs (like Lactobacillus) that dwell in your intestines and skin. This has led, even when used properly and cautiously, to antibiotic resistance of formerly easily treated germs, and made it MUCH harder to fight serious infections by them. The " laboratories " that have been cited are not recognized reference laboratories, like Kline, LabCorp, etc., but labs that set their own " normal " and " abnormal " ranges, without comparing them to general population standards, as commercial labs do. They also don't accept insurance, and insurance doesn't accept them, because they do not recognize or maintain standard values. Furthermore, there was a websites posted to obtain antifungals " without prescription " - thereby thwarting the prescription drug laws. This is a FELONY if you get caught - mail fraud and wire fraud. Tell your kids how you are looking out for their health from your jail cell, if that is what you want. Caveat Lector !

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 Hi, Forgive me if I find your initial comment at the very least a little disingenuous . I think you have suggested in your reaction to the things I say that you DO have a problem with the diet which I have used so effectively on my son.Your attitude to me speaks to your contempt for what I am doing, which is fine as your opinion is at least as valid as mine, but it may make things easier if you say so. I was advocating gfcf and that was enough for you to describe me as a looney religious campaigner . Now you are suggesting that I am recommending , without thought or care , harmful treatments designed to get the good people here locked up. My reply made it apparent that I have reffered this treatment through my Doctor ( and a paediatric Consultant )at every stage and I can't see that I recommended anything different here. I believe I talked about ways of helping to persuade a Doctor to help. The website I ref'd to was a resource and I said that some people are obtaining pro-biotics and anti-fungals WITH and without prescription. If that misleasd you into believing that I was urging this lady to track down twighlight nystatin pushers then I sincerely apologise. I agree with you that much has happened in recent years to undermine the effectiveness of anti-biotics .....but we both know , do we not, that the proprtion of responsibility attributal to indescriminate anti-fungal use is infinitesimal compared to the irresponsible and reckless use of anti-biotics by some of your collegues ! I suggested that the lady try an pro-biotic first to see if there was a reaction in her child , I recommneded that she look at some further information, I assured her that I have had success with this treatment and that my son showed few symptoms prior to treatment. I also told her that many other mothers are having similar results and I also indicated that she may want to encourage he Paed. to help her on a " trial basis " . Once again ...none of which seemed to me to justify your " talking to your kids from your jail cell " jibe ! Do you think there is any possibility that you could choose to disagree with me , and carry out your quite justified and correct wish to warn parents of the theoretical and non-mainstream nature of the things I advocate, without resorting to really quite childish devices to make your point ? I seem to hold the people here in slightly higher esteem than you in that I accept that they can believe or disbelieve me . I trust that they love and care for their kids and will weigh what you and I , and others say carefully -, gain further information if they need to and will make their minds up . That is the very reason that most of them are here and were persuing EFA's when for many , the medical Establishment were dismissive or even obstructive. I don't expect anyone to do as I do , but as I said before I will not cease to tell people about what has helped my child - they are under no obligation to even read it ! Regards Deborah Dore. Ps . I have named a lab and printed what I know about it - not being in the USA that is all I can do . But thank you so much for your list of reputable labs ..Kline Beecham !! That was the first laugh I have had this morning !!!!! We really are at the opposite ends of things here arn't we! I guess it makes for interesting discussion !

It's too bad that the concern for overuse of antibiotics is not applied in the farming industry. It seems there is huge concern for overuse of antibiotics to possibly help a child but little concern is voiced about using antibiotics in cattle feed on a routine basis to increase the weight of cows.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 I just want to tell you all that it has been since April 7th since I took AMPHOTERACIN B that Jim Brodsky perscibed for me, I took it only 2 weeks and have been checked twice now and the yeast is still gone. I have not changed my diet and I am feeling really good. Also my son's girl friend was full of yeast because of antiboics and Jim put her on it 3 weeks ago and the yeast is completely gone. I have had 0 sugar carvings. Maybe some of you should try it. Love Cricket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 There are great candida supliments you can buy at the health food store you can buy. If you find one with a chemist or at least a very knowledgeable person they can give you everything you need to take care of this includine the most important thing " diet " and probiotics. Or call 800-830-4778. Ask about Candi-Gone. They will be ALOT of help to you. Life is a balance of holding on and letting go... [] yeast Still full of yeast. Even in my sinuses. They put me on Diflucan as I couldnt tolerate the sporanox and lotrisone to put up my nose. Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
