Yeast infection

[Guest guest]

Hi girls,

Help me out. I have a SERIOUS yeast infection and Monistat isn't

working ... so far.

Any suggestions?

I'l be glad to provide details to those who want, but thought I'd spare

our male friends.

Love ya ALL, Debra

[Guest guest]

Oh yes my dear. GARLIC, GARLIC, GARLIC.

Liz sent a post today and there is a wonderful URL included for Dr. Weill

about Yeast infections and Garlic, Acidophilus, Tea Tree Oil. You don't

need Monistat, or whatever it was.

Dear Roni, I am sorry to hear about the yeast infection. Definitely sounds

like one. If you are not planning on going to the doctor for a

prescription, I would recommend you go to the Health Food store and purchase

Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE), and aloevera juice. I would also purchase

some colloidal silver. I was told to alternate the colloidal silver and the

grapefruit seed extract to keep the yeast down but not to over kill and kid

rid of the good bacteria. I personally use tea tree oil on the bottoms of

my feet every morning and night. This is an antifungal, antibacterial oil

which also works to keep the old yeast at bay. I am sure someone else has

better advice but that is definitely what I would do at this juncture. If

you are miserable, I probably would get a prescription to clear this up and

then continue using these natural products FOREVER while you are doing the

AP. I hope this helps and wish you well soon, Love,

Umm....once when diagnosed with E. coli in " there " the doctor wanted to

prescribe Flagyll. Many of us knew the dangers of Flagyll (a small

percentage of folks go blind, for example) and finally I found a cure of

using a garlic clove, unpeeled, wrapped in some cheese cloth and inserted.

It worked fine. felicidades, Felicia

Hi Anne,

I feel one coming on and I couldn't find what the treatment might in the book. Does anyone know of any besides Monostat-7?

Not to get too personal here I am assuming that your talking about yeast infection that mainly occures for women right? Have you ever tried a douche of cultured yogurt and water? It works like magic after a couple of doses and seems to get normal flora up and running again.

Just curious, isn't undiluted frozen OJ too much of a concentrated sugar source?

Try Oil of Oregano.

Eat lots of plain yogurt with fresh fruit (no added sugar) or undiluted frozen

OJ.

Hi Anne,

Yes, yeast can be tamed by taking acidopholous (more

than recommended and get at the health food store.

Also stay clear of sugar and carbohydrates for a

couple weeks. That will do it...Good luck, LuLu

oregano oil is strong. I just joined and so am assuming it is vaginal

yeast infection you are talking about. Another alternative would be to

use a good-quality tea tree oil and some plain yogurt. You put a

couple drops in a TBS of yogurt and put on the end of a tampon. You

then insert it and leave it there for a while. You would probably

have to do this a few times per day for a couple days. I've never

had one, but someone who is an aromatherapist recommends that.

Last time I had this problem, I got a tincture called " Anti-bio " from the

health food store. I recall it had goldenseal (very helpful), echinacea, and

some other herbs in it. Tastes vile, but I added a dropperful to water about

once an hour until it went away.

As a side note, the first time I did the regimen, I got an infection -

may have been yeast or urinary tract, don't know - part way through the

protocol. I considered stopping, but instead I proceeded with the rest, and

it went away. I think that somewhere in the die-off, I unleashed something

that manifested itself as a " feminine problem, " and then killed it off by

continuing the protocol. Haven't had an infection since....

[Guest guest]

I just found out I am diabetic and because of this I am getting yeast infections that just won't go away. What can I do to keep yeast away? I saw a post about a yogurt douche.. how exactly is this done, how much yogurt and how much water? is there any particular brand of yogurt that is best? I will also try acidopholous, can I do both at the same time? Hi Anne,Yes, yeast can be tamed by taking acidopholous (morethan recommended and get at the health food store.Also stay clear of sugar and carbohydrates for acouple weeks.

Question... Are yeast infections contageous?? I don't want to give this to my boyfriend and I also don't want to tell him I have it but if it is contageous I have to tell him and I have to get rid of this fast. I will try all the suggestions and see what works best. Last time I had this problem, I got a tincture called "Anti-bio" from the health food store.

Yeah, undiluted frozen OJ is very sweet but it doesn't take much on the

yogurt. I cured myself of a vaginal yeast infection eating this combination

a few years ago. (I ate it ALOT. Made the yogurt by scalding a gallon of

milk, letting it cool to warm, added Dannon yogurt, and putting it in a

styrofoam cooler filled with warm water)

Some of the things I have read about yeast is that they are janitors

cleaning up heavy metals in the body. Also that yeast do not grow in a more

alkaline body. Alkaline foods - vegetables - help keep the body more

alkaline. So does deep breathing.

http://watercure.com has information about the " water cure " which is

supposed to be very effective for diabetes.

You also might want to switch to eating sprouted wheat or Ezekial bread and

pasta instead of all the other wheat products you currently eat. n

Whitaker has a good book " Reversing Diabetes " , available at the book stores

or at the library.

lie,

A good pro-biotic is off course a must. Cutting back on sugar and other

simple carbohydrates is important.

I also use Grapefruit Seed Extract. It's not very expensive. I get it a

Vitaminshoppe.com, but your health food store should have it, too.

I take the drops. A few drops are okay to mix with juice or something.

More taste really yucky. When I want to take more than just a few drops I

put them in gel-caps and take them that way. They also come in tablet form.

I have been on AP for 4 1/2 years and now have less yeast problems than

before.

I hope this helps.

Take care,

Ute

One suggestion that comes to mind would be for him to modify his diet, if he

hasn't already. Eliminate sugar, gluten, and dairy. (Easier said than done, I

know!)

Hi - My 3 1/2 year old son has a yeast infection / rash around his penis /

scrotum. Too much 'discovery' going on!

So the doctor has prescribed some antifungal cream to apply - and to boil the

nipples of his bottle / pacifier. (Alas, i am still struggling to get these away

from a very oral kid - any ideas on this would be great?!?) I think it is likely

that he has yeast overgrowth internally too. What can I do about this short of a

huge dietary chance? Is there some supplment or medication that would help?

Thanks! I have so many questions and not a lot of answers lately....

I gradually enlarged the hole in the nipple, so after a few days, my

son did not want to use a bottle any more because it felt too strange.

Probiotics, GSE, lots of options

Thanks everyone for your response! I forgot to mention I did take

one diflucan last Tuesday and one on Saturday. I don't think it worked

for me or I have a different infection. I sure have the symptoms of a

classic yeast infection. I think you are all right in waiting until

Friday. Even though its killing me. Thanks again! Stay Well Kim...

[Guest guest]

Are you following a sugar-free diet? . . . Taking probiotics? Eating natural foods?Diflucan is just the first step in reducing fungal problems. . . You may need a refill, but it you'll start taking Acidopholis, Primal Defense, or another quality probiotic, you can start rebuilding the beneficial organisms that keep fungal problems in check. You'll need to take them for some time . . . You can track your progress with the spit test.RogeneGMCLADY98@... wrote: My obgyn

[Guest guest]

My ND gave me a prescription for Diflucan and prescribed 21 pills. 2 pills

is not going to kill a fungal infection. Unfortunately OB/GYN's only think

of the vaginal yeast instead of the yeast proliferating in the body. If you

can, I'd discuss getting a 3-week course of Diflucan. It can be hard on the

liver so watch for any signs of liver congestion. I have never had any

problems with it and I have a pretty miserable liver.

,

I would. Dr. Kolb has had me take Diflucan since April every other day so it won't hurt you and it will clear up the rest of that infection.
