Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 > - what was that test called - i get stool tests but not for what bacteria are there - just for what yeast etc are there What is the yeast test called? Also, what SCD legal OTC supplement did you use to fight yeast? Also, does anyone know if steroid use can kick up yeast? Mara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Mara, I just did some reading on the subject. Apparently the reason that steroids contribute to yeast problems is that it raises the blood sugar levels so more sugar is available for the yeast to munch on. I don't have a citation or anything, but that was the explanation I read.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I don't know if I have yeast problems, so to be cautious, I eat coconut oil everyday. I also take garlic oil capsules (or I mince some raw garlic and put in a capsule since I'm not fond of the taste) regularly. I actually started this to help with my bad cholesterol, but I guess it's a good yeast killer too. I have some Olive Leaf Extract capsules I want to try soon too. Maybe rotate it with the garlic.
