I was wondering if the below verbiage really does determine if you have yeast overgrowth? How accurate do you think it is?
First thing in the morning, before you put ANYTHING in your mouth, get a clear glass and fill with water. Work up a bit of saliva, then spit it into the glass of water. Check the water after a moment or within 2-3 minutes, then within every 15 minutes.
If you have a candida yeast infection, you will see strings, like cloudy legs, traveling down into the water from the saliva floating on the top, or "cloudy" saliva will sink to the bottom of the glass, or cloudy specks will seem to be suspended in the water. If there are no strings, the water is as clear as it was before you spit in the glass and the saliva is still floating after at least one hour, you are probably candida yeast free. The more strings and cloudiness there is and the faster it develops, the greater the overgrowth.

My daughter did this test. So did I. She had long stringy white stuff in the water, I didn't. She tested + for Candida in her stool and antigens in her blood.
I think it is a good first step.

I had major strings and thick stuff at the bottom. Wonderful, now I need to figure out the best way to get rid of this stuff. I think it is really playing havoc with me.
