YEAST PROTOCOL
Yeast overgrowth (Candida Albicans) is potentially a serious issue. Much has been written (Yeast Connection) that touts Candida as the culprit behind many ills. This may or may not be true. However, Candida is an opportunistic organism that grows rapidly if given the perfect condition and may be the cause of many problems.
Some reasons one gets Candida overgrowth:
1. Use of antibiotics – antibiotics kill off all the antagonists for Candida and allow the yeast to grow like crazy. Greatest defense – attempt at all costs to NOT take antibiotics. If needed, take an Acidophilus/Bifidus supplement along with it.
2. Other medications and surgeries
Ways to re-florize the gut (get the good, needed nutrients back):
1. Take Acidophilus orally through tablets, powder, capsules. (1-3/day)
2. Take Acidophilus mixed in an organic yogurt – open a capsule and mix into yogurt, leave to sit on counter 30-45 minutes, eat/drink, swishing around in mouth so some can be absorbed through bucal mucosa (skin of cheeks). (1-3/day)
3. Women can mix Acidophilus with plain yogurt, water down and douche with it. This same liquid/mixture recipe can be used in an enema for both men and women.
***The idea is to get this Acidophilus into as many orifices as possible so your body may absorb as much as possible.
