Hi,
i was just wondering if anyone has tried oil or oregano for IBS/Candida...and if it helped? Were there side effects-- a similar thread in the atkins forum suggests that it can increase weight loss and increase metal energy to the point of sleeplessness?

Also, is there a way to tell if I have Candida?-- my doctor doesn't
"believe" in it and my GI didn't think I had IBDs(thought it was a parasite though my tests were negative), but I often get EXTREMELY bloated to the point of pain, especially after I eat cheese and nuts. Also, my palms get really itchy after I eat certain foods-- like broccolli, and i have dry skin.... i'm so confused with what's going on in my body, all these problems have happened recently.

Any advice would be much appreciated!
thanks,
