Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Probiotics are safe to give everyday. The Kid's Kyodophilus brand seems to be the closest to human flora. The only way to not need a probiotic supplement is to feed the body probiotics until the body can grow it's own, which is not very easy to achieve. Grapefruit seed extract is effective in combating yeast. There's something unique about this particular substance (grapefruit seed extract). Whatever it does, it does without the debilitating side effects. It has the advantage of being very safe. In the treatment of candidiasis it appears as effective as nystatin, caprylic acid, and other non-absorbed intestinal antifungal agents. It is antifungal and antibacterial and can be taken in pill or liquid form. The taste isn't great, but you only need 10-15 drop up to three times a day if the child will take it in yogurt or peanut butter or something. Have you read The Food Cure and The Mood Cure? There is discussion on amino acid use in those books. , " kmh112960 " <kmh112960 wrote: > > I would like to have my daughter's amino acid levels tested.
