cake's lesson from too many antibiotics

After hand surgery to put a pin in my broken hand in November, and an ACL knee reconstruction in December, the long dependence on antibiotics (ABs) has caught up to me.

Didn't realise this but overuse of ABs elimates all but the natural Candida fungus which can then effectively take over your mouth, oesophagus and right through your digestive tract. Common name THRUSH!

Cake wasn't eating anywhere enough yoghurt or better food types.

So the diet is now unsweetened yoghurt, regular gargling with bicarb soda and colloidal silver until the right microflora returns to my system.

Take home message, you need to eat the right foods when on antibiotics or the complications can be very serious.
