Hi Joseph,

Candida overgrowth is notoriously hard to treat with diet and
probiotics alone. Best to submit to a one month course of antifungals
to address the root of the problem then use diet and probiotics to 1)
re-establish the favorable intestinal flora and 2) prevent a relapse.

My opinion is that Candidiasis is one of those things caused by an
abuse of medicines (antibiotics) and that it takes a equal and
opposite abuse of medicines to set it to rights (antifungals).
