You aren't the first person to report yeast symptoms after taking CS. It has never happened to me though, and I often take a whole lot more than your 3-5 oz per day, and my CS is more like 10-15ppm. I don't personally believe CS can disrupt the bacteria in the human bowel, perhaps somewhat in the upper small intestine, but not the large intestine. At least I can't get it to disrupt mine. It seems to me like colonics, since they actually go into the bowel ought to disrupt the flora a lot more (by washing them out), since so many think CS never gets far into the bowel in liquid form unless there is severe diarrhea. Since I do get diarrhea once in a while (usually from eating too much high carb high sugar stuff) I take the opportunity to drink from a pint to a quart of CS very fast in hopes of getting it through the whole tract in liquid form, but the CS has stops the diarrhea so fast it could not have made a complete transit as liquid, or I don't think so anyway. It makes no sense to me to take CS and a probiotic together. I try to take mine a couple hours apart. I wonder what would have happened if you had upped your CS intake even more rather than stopped it? Or gone ahead and tried it topically? Could it be that CS kills some of the bacteria that might be keeping the yeast in check first (would not necessarily be beneficial bacteria), but the yeast organisms take longer to kill off, thus resulting in a flare? My thinking is that maybe it takes more CS to kill candida than to kill bacteria/viruses. I'd really like to know if you ever figure out exactly what is happening, as I don't understand it. paula
