I wasn’t quite sure that this belonged in the diet/nutrition section....
Anyways. I discovered that (according to my functional medicine practitioner) I have some candida overgrowth that may be the root cause of some chronic allergy-like symptoms I’ve had since last October. Runny nose, sneezing, post nasal drip... very annoying. The post nasal drip has finally culminated in a cough that comes and goes. I should note that was not just an observational diagnosis; the overgrowth was discovered via stool sample.
So I met with the office nutritionist who recommended I up my dosage of anti-candida supplements, and ...... GOOD LORD does it suck. I’ve felt like I have the flu the past two days. I’m definitely going to reduce the dosage and see if that smooths things out.
Has anyone been through this, have any experience or suggestions?
