My year-old baby has severe eczema which gets worse with lots of foods. I now believe that I have candida; could it be my babys problem too?
It certainly could! If you were carrying vaginal candida at the time of giving birth, it would almost certainly have been the first microbe which entered your baby’s gut through his mouth on his journey through your birth canal. Prior to birth, a baby’s intestines are completely sterile, and in a healthy situation the first microbes to get in are friendly bacteria provided by the mother’s breast milk. However, if candida gets in first, the battle is on from the baby’s first moment of life in the world. The baby is then likely to suffer from colic, nappy rash and/or eczema, and will be predisposed to food sensitivities, ear problems and asthma. Unfortunately, antibiotics and steroid treatments simply make the matter worse. However, the good news is that even a small baby can win a battle over candida; keep your baby’s diet strictly within the anti-candida guidelines and introduce appropriate friendly bacteria by giving BioCare’s Bifido infantis (order through www.nutritionhelp.
