 hwyla 9 years ago | Not that I know a lot about the subject, but IF yogurt and probiotics are good against it, then it would probably be a very bad idea to take antibiotics for it. That would just make your gut bacteria even worse. You might also want to check carefully for preservatives and/or pesticides – both affect the life of the good bacteria. Presumably you are doing that anyway with this diet? Good Luck! And ask your doctor if it might have something to do with your gut flora. |
 Ossie-Sharon 9 years ago | Hi, Diane. I’m sorry to read of your troubles. Is there a reason you have it? Are you or were you recently receiving chemotherapy?
Until someone else chimes in, I will note that washing your mouth out with glutamine (a natural amino acid that comes in a powder that you can mix with water) often helps. It is also recommended to get in a lot of low-sugar (but without artificial sweeteners) probiotics – high-quality plain yogurt with fresh fruit as a booster, kefir, and pickled vegetables. If it is candidiasis, some people report success with raw garlic, grapefruit seed extract, and staying away from simple sugars and mushroom and yeast products. If you would like more guidance here, please do repost. |
 dianedee4 9 years ago | i would like to know if there is anybody out there that has trouble with thrush, like i have, had it for months, nothing will do it, but i have heard of a diet that you can go on which will help to get rid of itim sorry if i have offended people asking this question, but know i just dont know what to do about it, i have read up on it its a horrible thing to have, it can become dangerous, by the way i have visited dr, on numours occassions and all they give me is nysan to paint my tongue with, doesnt work and they will not give me antibiotics, by the way i get a razer in the morning to scrape my tongue, then use toothpaste on a brush, then get a flannel to wipe my tongue, doesnt get alot off but it helps. |
