What is the best probiotic for a child/and adult?

How far apart should it be from abx? I've heard 2 hrs and then I also have heard 3 or 4...HELP!

Our daughter is getting A LOT of yeast infections and I just don't think the PB8 (2 hrs apart) is cutting it anymore.

Thanks for your help!

We take 2 HLC capsules right before bed. I try to make it at least 2 hours after abx.

My daughter also takes Prescript Assist Pro 30 minutes before meals. She takes Nystatin daily.

Candida diet and elimination:

Lyme symptoms list compared with yeast symptoms

DIET, DIET, DIET is the key. Then, be sure to follow the 5 step plan outlined below. It was developed by my naturopath. It works.

"Successful control and elminiation of a Candida Albicans overgrowth requires a multifaceted program as described below. Failure to follow ALL the steps simultaneously will result in slow progress and will lengthen healing time significantly. The program should be tailored to the individual and must balance the need to eliminate the Candida and deprive it of its food source while insuring proper nutrition for the individual."

Five Steps to Candida Elimination:

1. You must starve it into submission by eliminating its food source.


2. You must kill it with anti-fungal herbs and supplements. [e.g....garlic, onion, caprylic acid, Pau D'Arco capsules or tea, clove, grapefruit seed extract, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, tea tree oil, Echinacea, Goldenseal, black walnut, MSM, barberry root, uva ursi, neem leaf, biotin]

3. You must reestablish the proper balance and quantity of probiotic bacteria in the digestive tract. [...multi-strain lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidus capsules with FOS should be taken between meals to maximize repopulation of the digestive tract by beneficial bacteria.]

4. You must reestablish proper levels of all B vitamins (yeast free) and utilize other immune enhancing supplements to boost immune system function. [e.g ... B complex vitamins (yeast free), biotin, beta 1-3 glucan, colostrum, maitake mushroom, vitamins A, C, E, zinc and selenium]

5. You must cleanse and heal the digestive tract to promote proper elimination of toxins and Candida and assimilation of nutrients. [e.g...chlorophyll, MSM, omega 3 fatty acids found in flax seed and salmon oils, GLA found in borage, evening primrose and black currant oils. Pantothenic acid, digestive enzymes between meals]

Lactoferrin may be helpful, check it out at wikipedia. It seems to be helping me. I bought it at vitacost.

She is 13 yrs, 115 lbs and 5'8"..should she be on an adult dose? If so, what would you recommend from Theralac?

Thank you so much for your help everyone..I am going to make some adjustments and see how that goes!

I would recommend OLE - Olive Leaf Extract to counter candida. It worked for me. Take away from both Rx and probiotics, though.
