Guest guest Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 A biotin supplement has helped my candida (systemic) problem a lot. Perhaps it will help with other yeasts/fungi problems. Worth a shot. It's very cheap and available at most suppliment stores. 2mg 3 to 4x/day is what I want to do, but I bought 300 mcg/pill brand and it still helps a lot, but is far less than what was recommended to me.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Interesting. I've had my vitamin levels checked a couple of time and both came out particularly low in the B vitamins and many B's have been implicated in being especially beneficial to many illnesses. I'm not sure why I'm chonically low in these. At one time I think I may have read that beneficial bacteria in the gut produce B vitamins or perhaps absorb them? I also came out very low in amino acids which surprised me because I was trying to follow a low carb/high protein diet so I figured I would have had high aminos. The exception I had good levels of B12 which is supposed to be so important and I think a good source in meat, so I wonder why I'm getting the B12's and not the other B's and aminos. Something I haven't figured out yet. If I take a high dose B complex I have to be careful not to take it at night, as it makes me too wide awake, so try to take it in a.m. or when I'm sleepy or tired during the day. > > A biotin supplement has helped my candida (systemic) problem a lot.
