Anyone taking Candistroy?

[Kaela]

I was thinking about getting Candistroy from iherb.com because it has an antifungal and a probiotic. I read the directions online and they said to take the antifungal and the probiotic together. Aren't you not supposed to do that b/c the antifungal kills the probiotic?? Or am I wrong. I know Jessea, you said that you are taking it How is it going and do you take them together? Anyone else have any experience with them?

Yes, I take it. It seems really strong, and I know it is working. The last few times I took it, I experienced no die off symptoms. But now that I am on antibiotics, I am sure I am growing some of those critters back.

I DO NOT take them together. I take the anti-fungal at night, and the probiotic in the morning. I don't know why they tell you to take them together, but I have read everywhere that is a no-no.

I think it is a good product, the only drawback to it is the anti-fungals stick going down. I hate swallowing pills. I tried something called yeast cleanse prior to the Candistroy, and didn't find it worked that well.

Good luck!

Thank you Jessea! And thank you for replying to my other post too! ;)
Well, that's great news that it works! I just ordered some and it should be here in a few days.
How will I know if it's working?

You will know it's working if you feel sick. Kind of like a hangover, you know that dehydrated, headachey feeling. Then the itching starts. You know where. :o Itching in less embaressing places, too, like the scalp. You almost feel like you have the flu. It is not fun. If I were you, I would build up slowly, then you won't have the severe die off reactions. Take one tablet, for a few days, then go up to two, then three. You will still feel the itching, tho, but that is a good sign. You might have EXTREME cravings for sugar. That is the yeasties calling for food, don't feed them!!

Good Luck, let me know how you are doing!!!
