I didn't say Candida, I said Candidiasis, which is not the organism but a condition of an overgrowth of one of many candida species. The one that's "blamed" the most is Candida Albicans, but that species may not necessarily be the culprit. Dysbiosis is an imbalance of microflora associated with a number of human illnesses.

So to answer your question, Candidiasis is one type of Dysbiosis.

My Dysbiosis was caused by Candida Parapsilosis, Psedomonas Aeruginosa and Staphylococcus Aureus overgrowths.

"Candidiasis" has become the generic term for Dysbiosis. In many cases there may be no overgrowth of a Candida species. Here's an article about the association of dysbiosis with breast cancer, having nothing to do with a Candida species. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3885448/

In this case, the culprits are Methylobacterium Radiotolerans and Sphingomonas Yanoikuyae.

You'd be amazed at how many tax dollars are being poured into learning more about the Human Microbiome and its effects on human health, by the US NIH http://www.hmpdacc.org/

So what you are calling "pseudoscience" is in fact real Science being funded by your tax dollars. http://www.hmpdacc.org/impacts_health/impact_health.php

The reason that the "Candidiasis" sufferers are finding no relief, is because they're making an assumption that Candida Albicans is the organism that's overgrown and leading to their dysbiosis. I encourage those sufferers to seek out a CDSA http://www.gdx.net/product/10123 to learn more about what might be contributing to their dysbiosis so that they know how to attack it, and if they find that there is no bacterial/fungal contributor then go look elsewhere. At the previous link, you'll see a list of health issues that bacterial/fungal overgrowths can lead to.

"Malabsorption can lead to deficiencies of nutrients, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. This can result in long term health complications such as anemia, malnutrition, impaired metabolism and other diseases, such as osteoporosis"

Look, there's your malnutrition. Just like I said previously; malabsorption. There's less risk in having the CDSA testing done than there is is just loading up with enough food to feed the organisms plus the person, just like oneheartasone posted in this thread.

Oh, and here's more "pseudoscience" for you, fecal transplants. Yes, that's right. Fecal transplants are approved for use in the US for treatment of Clostridium Difficile Infection (CDI) of the gastrointestinal tract commonly caused by Antibiotic use. It's a way of restoring GI tract flora to a healthy state, by transplanting the fecal matter from a healthy donor into the GI system of the patient. It's saving lives, and it is mainstream medical; not quackery. http://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/clinical-updates/digestive-di...

After reading that, are you going to dismiss dysbiosis as pseudoscience?
