Please tell me how to overcome yeast overgrowth? I am taking Citricidal and have tried Threelac. Help me!?
Question:
Answers:
I was disabled for a full year with yeast overgrowth. The typical medical doctor has not been trained to deal with it. I know how you feel. I finally found a doctor who specializes in Yeast problems. Dennis Remington, in Provo, Utah. He saved my life. He gave me Niastaton, and Vitaldopholis, (probably both spelled wrong). Both harmless non drug items. 30 days gave me a 50% recovery, the other 50% came slowly, but I am cured. Of course I had a strict diet for the first 30 days, and gradually got back to a normal diet after a year. You can email me if you want more.
I am not certain what can help you... I would suggest going to a naturopathy doctor..who can give you a diet specifically for your ailment.. naturally.
I believe in natural health and that may help you.
Have you read the book, "The Yeast Connection"?
There's also a yeast connection website:
http://www.yeastconnection.com/ftb_excer...
it offers up a reasonable diet plan and recipes to help you get a balanced diet without eating too much meat (Can you eat fish instead of chicken or beef?
Monostat 7 is better than the one day yeast insert, as it treats your symptoms over a period of time. Diflucan is an internal anti-fungal you can take for yeast infections, and it works nice because it goes everywhere in your system and kills the yeast in places like your ears and eyes (I have yeast in my ears, nose, and now some veins). The recommended dosage is one pill a day for fifteen days, but as it works so well you can cut each pill in half and take half a pill a day for 7 days, saving the rest for flareups from that one piece of bread you couldn't resist. You might also want to add enzymes and lactobacillus acidopholus pills (you can get them at the health food store). A colon cleanse once a month will help get rid of yeast in your intestines and will help you get your digestion back in gear. Keeping up with the strict diet for one year plus the Diflucan, enzymes, and lactobacillus acidopholus will help you get better
Citricidal never worked for me. It's a good source of citric acid and Vitamin C, but that's about it. You might want to reduce that dose to half once a day or cut it out completely when taking the Diflucan.
You might want to look into international cookbooks for recipes involving rice, beans, vegetables and fish. You can also use honey and maple syrup as sweeteners instead of sugars. The international recipes use primarily rice, beans and vegetables. You can substitute rice milk for soy or cow's milk (I find it less of an irritant than soy, and it's not beans the magical fruit!), even in a lot of recipes.
Good luck. Diflucan is through prescription only, so you have to see your doctor. But the website offers a lot of information and support.
I treated my yeast problem, but it was all by accident! Awhile ago, I was having severe GI problems so I switched to a liquid diet for about 3 weeks. I lost weight and got rid of my yeast problem while treating my GI problem!
I didn't include dairy or meat during this time period. Just strained fruit/veggies (just buy jarred baby food), oatmeal, veggie/miso broth, and soy milk. I felt so much better after that.
