Guest guest Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Has anyone here heard that if you have clostridia and have been using an antifungal then you may only be making things worse. My son doesn't have " dificle " , he has more of the tamer versions according to his DAN. Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Becky, I haven't heard that.... but I just don't know. Is that what the DAN said? Very interesting. I wonder why that would be?

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Because if you kill off all of the yeast growing in the intestine with antifungals, then the bacteria can quickly grow and replace any parts where the yeast use to live...it is important to consume probiotics that help control the clostridia or other bacteria. > > Becky, > > I haven't heard that.... but I just don't know.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 I read it on the Great Plains Lab. page. I had googled the OATS test and was reading and ran across that statement. That makes me question some of what I am doing. I was told he has clostridia ( the more milder version, not the dificle kind), yet he's getting garlic and coconut oil in his diet which both have antifungal properties......so I don't know. I would think these would have less an impact on him than say an actual antifungal enzyme per say....but who knows. Something else for me to obsess about.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Gee whiz, I would think that eating garlic and coconut oil are still really good options, and not nearly as super heavy-duty as something like a prescription antifungal (Diflucan or something) or even GSE. Especially if you keep the good probiotics flowing, and give them separately from the garlic and coconut oil, maybe, it seems like you could still keep using those two great foods. I wonder if they were referring more to chemical antifungals? Patti Re: clostridia and antifungals I read it on the Great Plains Lab. page.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 They didn't mention " chemcial antifungals " , just antifungals in general. I have tried googling this and have come up empty as of yet. You know I have been giving G his probiotic in the am along with his pancakes coated with coconut oil. Based on what you are saying I should not give them together huh?

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Yes, I think you need to give the probiotics separately from anything that has anti-bacterial effects.... or anti-fungal. Probably just a good rule of thumb to give probiotics apart from any of those. Patti Re: clostridia and antifungals They didn't mention " chemcial antifungals " , just antifungals in general.
