Guest guest Posted February 2, 2001 Report Share Posted February 2, 2001 , have your tried to slowly work up to the dose the doctor wants? have you tried the acidophilus plus instead of the ProCulture gold? I do not think it is as strong and I think it is recommended to be used first. If you go too fast too soon the body can react to the die off and it will be worse that the original problem. Going slowly worked for Evan. He had some bumps that some felt were from his body detoxing but they only lasted about a month. He has not had a skin yeast infection since. Yeast can cause all kinds of problems. Physical and mental. Betty ----- Original Message ----- > Our son who a few months ago had 4+ good bacteria and for the first time normal range of yeast,now has 0 good bacteria and 4+ of two different yeast species. Our Dr. ordered 2 proculture gold capsules a day and 4 tsp of colostrum 2x a day. Has anyone used that much colostrum before? It sounds way too large of a dose but the nurse says his yeast is a very bad type resistant to nystatin. Our son always has terrible regression when taking probiotics and colostrum. Do you think you can take too much of a good thing? Do you think Einstein had yeast overgrowth? I am beginning to think our sons normal flora will never be right since we have treated him so many times.It is frustrating. What would happen if we didn't kill off the yeast? His onlt strange behaviors are lining things up,scanning things and not really playing with kids his age. He is 4,I am tempted to leave him be happy instead of making him sick with the yeast treatments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 >Hi All, My kiddos have been SCD since Feb. 2005. They have been battling yeast issues since the summer. We used Diflucan tablets the last time and that seemed to clear things up quickly. We also really cut back on all fruits and juices and honey. I only use honey when making nut yogurt. They get legal probiotics and they are taking Grapeseed Extract tablets from Kirkmans after finishing the Diflucan. Just tonight I noticed a rash on both the kids bottoms -- yeast again. I have been really diligent with cutting back on the sugars, so I don't know what on earth is going on. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! It's really hard to send in snacks to preschool and Kindergarten when I've basically eliminated fruits and sweet baked goods. Help! T & C SCD since 2/05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
