 A couple of ideas about thrush.  I have found that women
who have problems with yeast that are not easily resolved
with standard treatments may want to evaluate their diet.
Removing yeasty or moldy foods, breasts/mushrooms/beer/etc,
and sugary foods, inc. natural sugars like fruit and milk,
seems to help.  Adding lactobacilus acidopholus to their
diet in addition to pau-d-arco, caprilic acid, and garlic
seems to help also.  There is a supplement available in
health food stores that contains all these things.  Its


called yeast fighters.
For some there is a problem with passing the yeast back and
forth between parents during sexual relations.  Both parents
may need to be treated in addition to the baby.
When the yeast is in the mothers breast and the baby's mouth
(with or without symptoms) they need to treat the symptoms
in addition to treating the systemic problem in all the ways
already discussed here.
Diligence is the key here. Continue treating for 2-3 weeks
after symptoms disappear is very important.
  There are some very good books out there on yeast
problems.  Nothing published lately that I'm aware of.  Do
any of you have any new resources?
