Pityrosporum folliculitis. Topical or oral antifungals are the most effective treatments for this type of folliculitis. Because the condition often returns once you've finished the course of oral medi...

From what I read about fungus, they grow immune to certain things that try to kill them. So I've heard of people rotating different anti fungal treatments so the fungus can't adapt. The melassazia fun...

Well I went to the dermatologist today and voiced my opinion about believing my condition was fungal. She (derm) said that it does not look like a fungal infection and that the redness, inflammation a...

Also one other thing, Pityrosporum is the old name. It's now called Malassezia

I'm going through this same issue. I've been dealing with skin issues for 10+ years. I was able to control my other breakouts, but always had this redness and dry skin that just hung around. I have da...

It's been almost a year since this topic was active. I'm guessing since tishi hasn't been on means she's all clear (makes sense). I'm going through what I think is the same issue as this. I'm going to...

So I've stopped the fiber and probiotic, but I am still taking the supplements and doing a strict diet of no sugars, carbs, or any food that can feed the yeast in my body. I've had a few more new whit...

So earlier I was trying to find the reason why I was breaking out with my probiotic (G of L Primal Defense). I was bashing L. Plantarum but the more I learn about it, the more it appears that this str...

Hi ilynx,   What probiotic are you using? Also the reason you may be breaking out on your jawline is from the milk and milk derivatives (creams, casein, whey, etc). I used to get bad breakouts wi...

Another scary case where L. plantarum caused a heart condition known as Endocarditis. I'm going to stop the Garden of Life probiotic!!!! Still researching out of curiosity...      

Hi creativebeth,   I've been doing some detective work and found something very interesting when I compared the ingredients of your probiotic, mine and the OP's (bigphil). Mine has a few more str...

I'm also coming out of lurking to post on this thread.   I would really like to try this. I have been off dairy and on The Candida Cure diet for 7 or 8 weeks and my acne has gotten worse instead...

Is it better to take zinc in the morning or at night??   I think either is fine, as long as you take it with food or else your stomach will hurt for bit. Personally I've been taking all my suppl...

I'm using the Garden of Life Primal Defense Ultra Ultimate Probiotics Formula that I ordered from Amazon. I don't think it says on the bottle to refrigerate, maybe just in a cool dark place but I keep...

Interesting article related to this topic: Digestion and Your Skin   I think this idea was mentioned by Dr. Atkins as well:  

By the way the candida spit test is a hoax. Almost everyone fails it. You can do a youtube search on it.   Well it can't technically be ruled out as a hoax. In one of the videos I watched that t...

Great post! This is something I've been scouring the Internet for. A true honest and down to earth testimonial for this type of treatment. I'm almost 29 years old and like you said, I'm tired of havin...

I tried hempseed oil for a couple days and it broke me out with more redness and whiteheads. Some say this is the healing stage but I'm not completely sold on that theory at all. Either it breaks you ...
