I appreciate the response. I too have LOTS of the candida symptoms have been on tons of antibiotics from docs and derms due to exfoliative cheilitis which is a whole other problem in itself...anyway sure that's where this all started. I haven't followed any strict diet but actually have been eating a lot better the past four months or so whole foods, fruits and veggies non processed junk. I also looked into probiotics around the time and have making and taking milk kefir every other day or so for the past 2 months.
I no matter what can not get rid of this horrible dandruff/scalp problem. Its tricky because I don't have dry flaky skin like a lot of folks do mine is the moist oily kind. It's almost like a white puss like film that just accumulates. It's mainly on the crown and frontal region not on the sides or back. If I don't shampoo every other day it is just out of control. I have tried ACV w/ water diluted topically and that somewhat helped but didn't rid me of it completely.
I think I'm going to buy some of this iodine I also have toenail fungus on one of my toes so will try to maybe kill 2 birds with 1 stone. It's kind of hard for me to follow some of the really strict flush diets because I'm diabetic. I have one question would it be ok to apply the iodine w/ water maybe pre shampoo and let it soak for a while then shampoo off? Or is it best to just leave it on overnight? Also as far as taking the iodine orally is there a way to find out of you're deficient? I don't want to take it orally then open up another can of worms as I'm not experiencing any stomach/bloating issuesor any organ pains. I am pretty regular especially since starting the kefir. I guess I should probably look into some other probiotics or cleanse type of supplements like oil of oregano maybe, any recommendations (am already taking vitamin D3)?
