Yeast Infections

Acidophilus – How many units are beneficial for yeast control?

Does anyone at all know what Acidophilus I should get that might help a dog with chronic yeast infections? We have exhausted all other vet treatments and feel as though we threw our $$ away. All the products I see online have certain amount of units of the bacteria and I don’t know what would be effective and not effective. Some are 1 million units, others are 6 million units etc. HELP!

I love using acidophilus with my dogs. Even though they get top-of-the-line food, since they are older, they are prone to digestive problems and not being able to assimilate food well. I have found that acidophilus helps tremendously.

Most of the brands in the health food store are in the mega-units, specific to human adults. Since my dogs are small, I use the liquid drops and capsules that are designed for babies and children. You didn’t mention how big your dog was but, like humans, you can go by body weight. I think your best bet is to find a holistic vet (even online – Dr. Marty Goldstein in New York) to ask as well.

The article in the source section will give you an idea how to deal nutritionally with pet yeast infections and the use of pro-biotics, as well as including a couple of yummy recipes to help your dog get well.

Good luck and all the best!
