healingnaturallybybee.com is supposedly promoting this zinc and selenium cure as well. I haven't joined that one yet, though.

On women, my personal opinion is that I see a pattern of alot of women getting these yeast problems, and ibs, and rls, and gestational diabetes with pregnancy. Perhaps the extra stress and extra food.

Here is a source on the thiamin and candida connection:

http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/v...ext=bioscimicro
"Aerobic inoculum preparation. This vitamin mix contains biotin, pyridoxine, and thiamine (18)."
...
"Oleic acid and nicotinic acid are growth factors which are required only for the anaerobic growth of C. albicans."
...
Anaerobically grown C. albicans was resistant to all concentrations of amphotericin B, clotrimazole, fluconazole, miconazole, and ketoconazole (Table 1). Also, anaerobically grown cells were 4, 8, and 16 times more resistant than aerobically grown cells to cerulenin, terbinafine, and zaragozic acid B, respectively (Table 1).

Danaus, I'd like to talk to you.. I joined this forum because I was looking up candida and celiac and found your very insightful posts. I tried to PM you but it would not work. Can you please PM me? Thanks.

"Could it be possible that excessive dietary fructose is behind the horrendous rise of candida?"
-- This may be a factor in the sinus problems symptom. I do drink alot of juice (particularly OJ). I'm thinking that this may cause overgrowth of "strep mutans". Or cause it to get stickier.

Could there be some sort of interaction between strep and candida, and/or some sort of sugar recycling mechanism between the two pathogens? ie PepitoGlycans? Unclear. Just thinking out loud.

I didn't know there was a low-carb plan that allows fruit juice. Especially with candida. Sounds like a bad combination.

I do drink a little unsweetened pure cranberry juice (diluted). It's extremely low in fructose and supposedly helpful for urinary tract infections, which says to me it might be a good antifungal.
