Re: ensuring that probiotics colonize

Probiotics, particularly Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidus help reestablish the normal intestinal flora. Taking them during treatment will, in the long run, protect against reinfection. (Consume probiotics with meals.)
Support the beneficial bacteria which thrive in the presence of foods rich in fiber and chlorophyll. Fructo-oligo-saccharides (F.O.S.) is a type of Sugar (found in the Jerusalem artichoke) which can dramatically increase the growth rate of beneficial bacteria, especially Bifidobacterium, an organism essential for a healthy digestive tract. F.O.S. cannot be metabolized by Candida, nor does it significantly raise the blood sugar.
