YeastNOTICE: The following posts are taken from the Christian ADHD Alternative Treatment List.

Just a little information from Dr. Crook's booklet, a child with too much yeast can have some of the following symptoms: constant colds, ear problems, irritability, hyperactivity, short attention span, behavior problems, learning problems, sleeplessness, , etc. Thank you for this information - it's interesting that my ped diagnosed my 23 month old with adhd after 4 doctors visits for ear infections - during which all he also had reoccuring yeast infections!! Now that he is off antibiotics, he is much better - but you can't convince the drs this... I feel much better will try these adjustments to his diet at the next sign of a yeast infection! Thank you God Bless! ACIDOPHILUS is a good bacteria that resides in your intestines. I heard the best yogurt for live cultures (bacteria) is Brown Cow. You can get it at the health food store. Another good one is Horizon, it's organic and the sell it at health food stores as well as Albertsons. Just a side note, I went to the doctor a year ago with a sinus infection. When he prescribed me an antibiotic he told me to be sure and eat yogurt with live cultures because the antibiotics killed good bacteria. I was impressed my doctor told me this, however, it made me decide not to take the antibiotic at all. Instead I bought a sinus herbal blend from Natural Health Clinic (a local clinic with a Dr. of Naturopathy that has created alot of his own herbal blends, they do mail order), I also took hyssop 3 times a day, used lavendar oil to drain my ears and unclog my sinuses (topically [it's very mild] and with steaming water and a towel tent) and drank lots of water and tea (including hyssop tea). Not to be gross, but you wouldn't believe the mucus that came out; from everywhere. anything in the yogurt is not good. should be plain with live cultures Health food store would probably be the best place to buy. Also what we do here in our home is have the yogurt but with it I give healthy tablespoon of fresh squeezed lemon. If anyone is interested i have a very easy recipe for homemade yogurt.
1/4 cup yogurt with live cultures Pour all the water in the blender measure out the yogurt and powdered milk. mix everything together in blender just enough to combine. skim off the foam and then pour into your quart jar. place the heating pad on a bath towel and then place the quart container on the heating pad. wrap the towel around it all and there you have it. set this in a place where it won't be disturbed for 3 1/2 hours to 8 hours. the livelier the culture and the warmer the heating pad the quicker the yogurt will set. check from time to time. i find that 6 hours is good for me. refrigerate and cool completely. remember to save 1/4cup for your next batch. what i do is usually make it right before i go to bed and it is ready in the morning at 6am when i get up. this is also assures me that my little ones won't get into it. enjoy. when not using for medicinal purposes my children love it with honey and raisins and nuts. one of daughters likes pure strawberry jam on hers. it makes a wonderful salad dressing mixed with tamari and garlic. |
