I know that prebiotics are not well accepted during the most critical periods of candida, but I no longer have any results with antifungals and the only probiotics that helped me (boulardii and reuteri) are now causing me problems with histamine, bifidos are very timid and seem to work slightly but unfortunately they seem to depend a lot on prebiotics. Last year I decided to test the probiotics + prebiotics combination and I had the following reactions:
Acacia + PHGG: Together or separately they cause me bloating, pain, gas, severe constipation in different doses, stuck gas, yellowish, mucous and thin stools, using them with probiotics makes no difference, it seems like they don't feed on them (only the bad one in your gut, lol). It doesn't seem to make oral thrush worse or better.
Inulin: The strangest of all, in low doses with or without probiotics improves bowel movements, thick brown stools without a strong smell or mucus, but a lot of stuck gas, an improvement in sleep and mood but immediate return of oral thrush and skin related candida symptons, high doses cause constipation and the return of all candida symptoms but the stools still big and without strong smell.
FOS: It's been a long time since I used it so I don't remember completely(2009~2015), but pure and in high quantities (above 1g) has the same effects as acacia and PHGG plus oral thrush and general candida overgrowth but in 2012 when vitacost had good suppliers of probiotics they had a formula with 35 billion bifido/lacto and 50mg of FOS per capsule, I took 3 capsules a day for about 2 months and all my symptoms improved, skin, bowel movements, hair and even my lactose intolerance disappeared! Then I bought it again in 2013 until 2015 and I remember never having any effect again, neither positive nor negative with their supplements, I read somewhere that it was at this time that the old suppliers changed.
Lactulose: I'm lactose intolerant so I won't risk it.
Resistant stach: Bloatness and the return of all candida symptons.
My last chance is GOS, has anyone tried it while having problems with candida and lactose intolerance? Does this prebiotic naturally contain lactose or is it just the bimuno brand that adds it?
Thanks!!
