BEST TESTS FOR CANDIDA OVERGROWTH ✅
.
Despite what you've probably read online, the spit test is pointless
.
(In case u aren't sure what it is, u spit in a glass of water to determine if u have #candidaovergrowth based on how ur spit reacts)
.
It can't tell u anything❌
.
If u suspect too much #candidaalbicans in ur system, there are better tests to use
.
🚨🚨BUT🚨🚨
.
Be aware that testing can produce false negative results because fungal organisms typically live up in the small intestines which is a region that's difficult to test for what ultimately would be Small Intestine Fungal Overgrowth (SIFO)
.
So if testing looks clear, but you have a history of yeast infections, mold exposure or u have rashes in those fungal hotspots I talked about a few days ago, u might have to override what tests show
.
That's why working with a practitioner who understands that testing isn't perfect + looks at ur complete case is so important 🎉
.
👇BETTER TESTS FOR CANDIDA OVERGROWTH👇
.
1. Stool testing
.
2. Organic acid test (urine) - looking specifically at fungal wastes products and/or high oxalates
.
3. IgG reactivity to yeast
.
.
Also, having oxalate crystals or kidney stones and even elevations in uric acid can be other signs of excess #candida
.
REMEMBER ▶️ testing isn't perfect
.
Which is something I stress repeatedly in my Skin Rash Rebuild program (and help u to understand along with assessments to help u figure this out)
.
👉 What testing have u had done to help u figure out whether candida is one of ur hidden triggers?
