Candida?

Post by Northstar »

Has anyone read about a possible link between Prostate (or UTI's) problems and an overabundance of the Candida (Yeast) fungus?

I've read that this yeast can cause a great number of problems.
Has anyone tried anti-fungal remedies, or the home kits that kill off the excess yeast?

Candida problems can occur as a consequence of the numerous antibiotic treatments many men endure. Solution: no more antibiotics, and use probiotics to restore normal intestinal flora.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

Anything you would particularly recommend in the probiotics dept. Mark? Otherwise I'll just go with the default Lactobacilli-type product the health food store stocks.

I find most probiotics work pretty much as advertized.

I thought about picking up one of those 'kits' from a health food store, that you stay on for several weeks.
Are there any side-effects or drawbacks to using these probiotics?

Since the ABX seem to have little effect on my symptoms, I figure I'll try several different courses of action (Quercetin is on the way and I'm already using Prelief).
