Re: Citrobacter freundii
by leakygut 14 y
Thank you Tony.
I was hoping you would reply. They did do invitro testing on citrobacter freundii, they determined that apicillin, amox./clavulanic acid, cephalothin has no effect on it. Ciprofloxacin, Tetracycline, and Trimethoprim/Sulfa does. I didn’t test positive for Candida. Is it possible that it is an opportunistic citrobacter freundi causing my problems? Its the highest rating for it and I’m non existant with lactobaccillus and low on bifido. What course of action do you recommend? I can find very little information on citrobacter freundii online, some say that its part of the ...

Re: 2nd update - what I am doing now for skin issues
by Tergot223 8 y
The reason I use the term thrush and perioral dermatitis interchangeably is because I see them both as having gut dysbiosis as the same route cause and I also don’t have a 100% diagnosis of either. Dermatologists have not been of much use to me.
If you search citrobacter on here there are many examples of it : http://www.curezone.org/forums/search.asp?q=citrobacter+freundii&action=Search
what I found so eerie was how many of my symptoms were described by others with this bacterial infection. No specific mention of EC though but MANY skin related issues.

Hello,
I had a bacteriology/yeast test done back in April (through Genova) which revealed candida overgrowth (2+) and low bifidobacterium. I thought that the candida was the answer to my health issues (lots of bloating and abdominal discomfort after I eat, weight loss, etc)
So, I went on the anti-candida diet, took oregano, anamu, cat’s claw, probiotics (including Probifia, a bifidobacterium probiotic), and eventually got a prescription for Diflucan for 1 week. After all of this, I still wasn’t feeling better, and I had dropped way too much weight (I was already thin) so I asked for a co ...

Re: Herbals for Dysbiosis

I think the Olive leaf is worth a try. Also, the C. Freundii is susceptible to Oregano Oil, and other essential oils. It’s somewhat irritating though so may be harsh on your system depending on how sensitive things are.
One product that I’ve never tried, but is highly recommended by Dr. Leo Galland (who deals with Dysbiosis a lot) is Gastromycin. It’s a general, broad spectrum antimicrobial. If I remember correctly, you mentioned in an earlier post about potential ulceration in the ascending colon.

Re: How do you get rid of bad bacteria?
by mollygibson 13 y
I suspect my problem is caused by this bad bacteria, not candida, but it isn’t possible to know for sure. From my reading, citrobacter freundii can cause problems with your pancreas and bile systems,which I have according to Genova (http://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.pho/citrobater freundii), and I have 4+ of this bacteria. I think I may go on hydrocloric acid, and stay on a low carb diet as this is supposed to starve bad bacteria as well as candida. I just am uncertain as to how to kill of the bad bacteria - I am doing lots of garlic and liposomal as that is known to kill of bad bacteria.

Recently we did a ”Faecal microbiology” test that shows that he has an overgrowth of Citrobacter Freundii. The Naturapath we have been seeing says that this could be the cause of his food sensitivities. Please see attached file for test results. Please advise if this is actually a problem that needs to be treated.

Yes, Happy’s aware of all that. If your Naturopath hasn’t ordered a CDSA then he/she’s probably just shooting in the dark. In many cases Candida albicans may not be the overgrown bacteria/fungi. In my case, the overgrowths were Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida parapsilosis and Beta Streptococcus . I was recently exchanging information with another dysbiosis sufferer on the Brain Fog Forum, and his/her stool analysis came back with overgrowths of Klibsiella oxytoca , Citrobacter freundii, Enterococcus faecium and Rhodotorula species.

Although it’s curious that no bifidus showed up in the CDSA, but lacto’s did, even though you’re supplementing large amounts.

You should ask your doctor about antibiotics, that is what they know.
But I found this here:

It seems to be a natural part of our environment and our microbiom, so finding it in stool may not mean anything unusual.
It is natural part of stool of both humans and animals, but there seem to be strains that may be more problematic.
