Tia, I've read that claim too, but don't know from personal experience. I've visited the Candida Forum a few times and have never seen paragone mentioned there as an effective treatment, everyone is always talking about Primal Defense and ThreeLac as being the most effective. That's a good q to ask there, though - candida is the one thing I think I *don't have* (knock on wood!) so I never really paid too much attention to that part of the paragone claims.
