The active bacteria in yogurt can help to restore the natural balance of bacteria in your mouth. Simply add yogurt products to your regular diet.

I would never try "natural" remedies. If there is a problem, see a physician and get treated the RIGHT way.

ah you see ….there are normally lots of harmless acidic bacteria inside the vagina…which act to keep everything healthy and prevent opportunisitic infection. Thrush is when this normal colonisation is upset. Yoghurt is full of harmless acidic bacteria…so using it recolonises the vagina to the right balances again!!!

Thrush is caused by the yeast Candida (usually Candida albicans) Yogurt, which has live Acidophillus in it helps the lessen the Candida load and helps the body’s micoflora become more balanced. For this reason, women are encouraged to eat yogurt or take Acidophillus to help prevent vaginal yeast infection. Once you have a thrush or a yeast infection, you often need an antifungal medication although eating yogurt as well doesn’t hurt. Thrush usually refers to a yeast infection in the mouth or throat–but it is caused by the same organism that causes genital yeast infections.

It has to be a live yoghurt. Not any old Muller or petite filous.
