I have a compromised immune system and regularly get yeast infections.  They are exacerbated when I exercise.  I love juicing and would like some power juice recipes that will help combat the yeast infections and boost my immune system.

Actually I have a better idea. Use plain yogurt as a douche. It works! The itch goes away instantly. Yogurt has the same bacterial balance and ph as your natural conditions. Dip a finger into the container, then insert in your vagina. \n\nEating yogurt can help but it isn't as fast acting. I suggest you use asadopholis capsules, opened and poured into what ever you are mixing. It is tasteless so don't worry!\n\nI have Adult Onset Primary Immune Deficiency. The Boy in the Bubble Syndrom. I know all about compromised immune systems!

Hi,... In my well experienced opinion,... the likes of wheat grass juice is an excellent addition to anyones efforts to promote health in the body. ..... There have been many individuals who have benefitted greatly from a regular intake of this sort of supplement. (there are others available),...... You should know however that if you are eating a diet or living a lifestyle that is counterproductive to your own health,.. then taking something like wheatgrass juice is not going to do much of anything for you. ... It's potential benefits will be cancelled out by the negative effects of whatever else you are doing.\n\n .... Such a supplement as wheatgrass juice is a support tool,... not a cure all. .......... We in the 'modern world',... are indoctrinated into looking for the 'quick fix',.. or that little pill or one item that will solve our problems,... and that is not the nature of natural healing,... which is a 'Holistic' and harmonious science. \n\nI can also share with you that many consumers of wheat grass juice in fact grow their own wheat grass in their own kitchens and use a specific wheat grass juicer machine to make their own juice. ... It is a whole lot cheaper and provides a much more fresh supply of juice.  ...http://www.wheatgrasskits.com/

That really depends on your medical history, demographics and statistics, (drug use, body composition and size, male or female, current location and heritage locale), AND whether this is actually a cold virus or a bacterial infection, simply an opportunistic mold allergy/fungus overgrowth or any combination of those. In any case, your immune system is compromised. Here are some things you can do right away, as well as some things you can start a bit later.\n\nFirst, TRY THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE. \n-SPICY FOODS/herbs such as fresh SAGE, OREGANO, GARLIC, CAYENNE, GREEN ONIONS, CILANTRO & JALAPENO'S IN BROTH,  HOT PEPPERS, Cardamom, Ginger (in food or in hot water), cloves, CHAI TEA (with soymilk only);\n-CURRY is a grrreat temporary remedy!\n\nHERBALS:\n-CHAMOMILE TEA is a good anti-inflammatory, and with Peppermint helps start the detox process (headache or stomach ache?) and makes you smile nicer too. \n-Hot Water/Lemon/Honey will help with bacteria and clear the alimentary canal for better absorption of nutrients. (Stevia instead of Honey if you are vegan, but then no bacterial help other than system flushing)\n\nIf you have access or a friend, FRESH HERBAL TEA of whole chamomile flowers, peppermint leaf, marshmallow root and licorice root with a little slippery elm bark is good. Drink several cups, take it in a thermos to work - yes, you must drink and pee! This is a good tea most of the time, but DO NOT use !! Licorice!! long term or with high blood pressure or any heart condition. Stop if you have bloating.\n\nGARGLE with MYRRH\n\nA quicker herbal fix is in a shot glass with HERBAL TINCTURES - you can mix it with juice, preferably low sugar content like POM or cranberry (not apple/orange/banana). \n\nHerbs to use: \nCAUTION: DO NOT MIX HERBS WITH OTHER MEDICINE AND TAKE CARE WHEN MIXING HERBALS!!  i.e., meadowsweet should not generally be mixed with skullcap, damiana, kava, hops  or other strong mood altering substances. \n\nSHOTS: \n-Wild Cherry/Petasites (cough expectorant), Willow Meadowsweet (aspirin), Bayberry Bark (dries phlegm), Usnea (staph/strep/bacteria), Coltsfoot (mild calming, anti-inflammatory, expectorant)\n\nLater: \n\nSHOTS: \n-Spilanthes/Usnia (for fungal infection, candida, stuff that slows your system down\n\n-Eyebright/Nettle (for sinusitus, rhinitis, hayfever), Astragalus, Dandelion/Milk Thistle (liver/gall bladder detoxing).\nOR\n-Red Clover/Stillingia (helps detox a sluggish lymphatic system and metabolism - rids body of metabolic and catabolic wastes)\n\nDROPS: Oil of Oregano (no data for this, just heard about it)\n\nSo that is more than enough, ya? E-Me if you want to get more specific, ok? \n\nFeel Better, Reiki On!

No, even know it might make you skinyer you stil need different types of nutrients that even if you "juice" wont work. Solids are essencial for a healthy body. You should just try to find healthy things to eat, not all healthy foods are distasteful so that might work for you.\n\nGood Luck!

I agree with the prune juice as a quick fix.  Be very careful not to drink too much, only one small glass is efficient today.  You need to also include raisins in your diet everyday and also nuts, like peanuts, etc. will help also.  Be sure you drink enough water in the day and start buying fruit and veggies, that diet will keep you regular.

It's about time for you to schedule an appointment with your GYN. Do you go in for routine check ups? If not, you should. A routine pelvic/PAP smear is early detection for many health issues concerning women. Given that you are a virgin, does not prevent you from getting a yeast infection. Oral antibiotics can cause yeast over growth/infection, as well as diabetes. Make an appointment, get yourself checked out, for your peace of mind. \nBest Regards

Get your doctor to see if you have a yeast infection.  Also ask your doctor or go to a clinic where you can be anonymously tested for HIV.  I am not saying by any means that you may have this. I got a yeast infection once in my mouth and throat because I was on some major antibiotics and a doctor gave me PREDNISONE which lowered my immune system. Sometimes an adult gets a yeast infection there from lowered immune system. If so, your doctor will likely give you Nystatin Swish and Swallow plus something like Diflucan. That is, if it is a yeast infection and that medication is right for you.

Home remedy wise...\nI've heard garlic (no honestly) LOL up the yoohaw woks for yeast, and works like a charm for the pain and discomfort. \n[[[Garlic\n\nGarlic contains natural anti-fungal substances that kill off yeast and should be added to the diet.  It may also be used internally.\n\nMethod\n\n    * Wrap an unpeeled clove of garlic in gauze or cheesecloth tying the ends with unwaxed dental floss, leaving a bit of string dangling to pull it out afterward\n    * Leave it in for several hours at a time\n    * Use nightly until after symptoms cease\n\n ]]]]\nBut you need something prescription to actually CURE the infection, if not it's just going to keep on coming back and with a vengeance.\nAlso natural yogurt helps, both by inserting into the vagina and also by eating it, no not after..I mean fresh yogurt LMAO\n\n\nMyself I've used Monistat 3 day, it cures and helps itch and burning, some also comes with an external  cream.\n\nBelow is an AWESOME link for you, don't let the name scare ya. LOL\n\nGoodluck.. :) YI are the devil.

Honey with whiskey.  It's an old rememdy but it works.\n\nIf that won't work with you due to age or morals, try lots of peppermint tea.  Keep your throat covered at night, and make sure that it's comfortably warm in your bedroom.\n\nIf you're still having problems, or if it leads into an infection go to your doctor and ask for an antibiotic like Keflex or Zithromax.\n\nAlso, keep yourself super hydrated.  \n\nVitamin C is good for the immune system, but I know that when I've had colds a raw throat isn't good with orange juice, or any other fruits with "stearic acid" -- which is what Vitamin C is -- in it.\n\nTry Vitamin E.  It really will help.

Look up a product called YeastBuster by Cycles of Life.  It has many applications and has had some tremendous benefits for "clearing up" problems that nothing else can.

Go to the health food store and buy the yogurt that has enzymes especially for women/yeast infenctions.  There is also a body cleanse for this.  HOWEVER, always dicuss this kind of thing with your doctor or a certified nutritionist.  Provided you are not in reproductive danger or in the midst of an infenction give it a try and see if the recurrance rate lessens.  Make sure with the cleanse you read carefully as some medications and conditions contraindicate it use.  Good Luck.....Oh, one more thing if you are sexually active make sure the partner does not have as s/he coule be passing it back.  Not as noticeably in men as women.  Take care and good luck.

Hi Suresh\n\nIt's obvious you need to cleanse your colon (you probably have candida). Here is an idea on how to start the healing process.\n\n\nA Quick Action Plan for Dealing with Candida \n\n1. Find out if you have Candida overgrowth through Darkfield Microscopy blood work testing, electrodermal screening, or other reliable screening, and proceed accordingly. \n\n2. Eliminate all sugar and sugar-containing foods, including alcohol, sweetened chocolate and soda. Eat no fruit other than grapefruit, green apples, and small quantities of berries. Release caffeine products, including coffee and black tea. \n\n3. Do not eat foods that contain yeast or flour such as bread, biscuits, muffins, bagels, cookies, etc. Avoid fermented foods such as soy sauce, and only use apple cider vinegar. \n\n4. Obtain adequate amounts of essential nutrients including vitamin A, beta carotene, all B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium, chromium, magnesium, selenium, zinc, essential fatty acids, and the amino acid, taurine. \n\n5. Supplement with the probiotics acidophilus and bifidobacteria. \n\n6. Take digestive enzymes, including ones with amylase and cellulose, as they help eliminate unhealthy yeasts while also aiding overall digestion. Hydrochloric acid (HC1) may be useful as well. \n\n7. Useful herbal remedies include barberry, caprylic acid, citrus seed extract, garlic, goldenseal, oil of oregano, Oregon grape, and tea tree oil. \n\n8. Avoid the use of antibiotics, birth control pills, and all synthetic hormones. Avoid conventionally produced inorganic dairy products, choosing raw organic dairy whenever possible. \n\n9. Dealing with Candida requires a comprehensive treatment approach; significant improvements may not be noticeable for three to six months. Seek the help of an alternative health practitioner experienced with Candida, if you need support. \n\nBest of health to you\n\nCheers

Registered Nurse here; No Immunocal does not cause yeast infections.  Monistat is excellent for treating yeast infections, as well as eating yogurt with live bacteria, and drinking buttermilk, for buttermilk also contains live good cultures of bacteria.  Both of the food items help to restore normal flora to the vagina and this assists to rid the yeast from your body.&#92;\nThank you allowing me to address this well written and thought out question.

Hey, I didn't got to the doctor or the emergency for my vaginal  problem either.  Money and insurance is also a problem fo me.  Here is what i did to solve my problem.  I went to the stor and bought some cheap Hydrocortisone Cream 1% Anti ich cream for the outer part and put it on 3-4 times a day.  Just a smal amount will do.  I went to the Vitamin Store and bout something from there.  They keep it in the fridge.  It is called Gy-Na.Tren.  It is safe, effective and natural beneficial flora L. acidolpilus, NAS super strain in veggie and gelitain capsules for yeast overgrowth.  It has two 14-capsule bottles, ome you take orally and the othe vaginally.  It works I am sure of it.

Yes it is possible. The best thing to do is be seen by a doctor. A yeast infection tends to grow in dark warm moist areas. Yogert helps with yeast infections. A low immune system and antibiotic use can cause a yeast infection. I hope this helps. Incase you want to know-it doesnt mean you are gay because you have a yeast infection in your "butt". I still would recommend seeing a doctor to make sure that you have correctly self-diagnosed yourself.

Why do you believe that you have ovarian or cervical cancer? I don't believe there is a correlation between yeast infections and the cause these cancers.\n\nHere is some information on vaginal infections:\nhttp://www.emedicinehealth.com/articles/6895-2.asp\n\nFollow-up with your gynecologist for further questions.
