Re: Digest Number 2005

We have used biocidin in conjunction with Kirkmans pro-Bio Gold (probiotic)

for my sons yeast. His yeast levels came down to just above normal on the

OAT within 6 weeks. We have - at the same time - also had him on a sugar

free/yeast free diet. I don't know whether it was the biocidin, the

probiotics, the diet or the combination of all 3 which gave us such an

effective result.

You can e-mail Biobotanical Research www.biobotanicalresearch.com and ask

them your specific question about B-vitamins and also where you can get the

biocidin. I believe that in the US it is only available through

practitioners (I am in the UK). We did discontinue SNT but this was because

it was too hard to get all the supplements in and I figured treating the

yeast was the priority.

We used 4 drops per day biocidin (my son is 30lb) but the bottle gives

dosage rates. We put it into pear juice. It is virtually tasteless in

cranberry juice if your son can tolerate that.

You would use biocidin in combination with a probiotic (to replace the

friendly bacteria). I would think that using it along with nystatin would

result in too severe a yeast die-off but someone else may correct me on

that. You could try biocidin for 1-2 months and if not as effective as you

need replace it with nystatin.
