Can confirm. Was prescribed antibiotics like water when I was a child. Developed "asthma" and was given way more antibiotics... I remember it being a milkshake in the fridge I would drink capfuls of.

I've self diagnosed candida overgrowth probably five years back and am managing it myself. The three doctors I've talked to about it all wanted to convince me it was something else. I would try to explain but would quickly see they knew nothing about it.

COVID has forced some major changes in my life and my routine was an unfortunate casualty which I am now finally able to start rebuilding. But just before COVID I'd gotten to a point where I was 100% doing a anti-candida diet consistently for two months. I became a different person, everything got better, more energy, more social, better memory, better speech, more organized, I had will power, better sleep, better dreams,....

The annoying but is that you can eat blanched vegetables for a week but if you have one slice of cake on Sunday, you're just undoing all the work from the week because the fucking candida just comes back. It's not at all forgiving.

Far more of you guys have an overgrowth issue than you realize. I was lucky in a way that mine produced a rash.

You may benefit from the GAPS diet.

Quick read, it's very similar to the candida diet. Thanks for the suggestion.
