Get a Sugar-Free Gut

David Brownstein, M.D. By Wednesday, 01 June 2011 02:53 PM EDT Current | Bio | Archive


Question: What should I do if I have yeast in my gut?

Dr. Brownstein's Answer:

Unfortunately, yeast overgrowth in the gut is common due to the high sugar content in our food supply.

The first step to eradicating yeast overgrowth is to eat a healthy diet free of refined sugar. The next step is to take nutraceuticals that help to kill yeast growth. I have found oregano oil invaluable in treating yeast overgrowth. Citricidal, made from the rinds of citrus fruit, also has strong anti-yeast properties. One tablet twice per day of both products can usually help.

Finally, it is important to take a good probiotic such as FermPlus Wholefoods, which helps to replenish good gut bacteria and allow the body to control yeast overgrowth.
