Gabriel's Approach
Gabriel treats oral thrush with topical antifungals (nystatin or natural like GSE, coconut oil), addresses underlying cause (wean steroids if possible, optimize diabetes control, treat immune deficiency), uses systemic antifungals if needed, optimizes oral hygiene, and addresses gut Candida if systemic issue. Prevents recurrence by addressing root cause.
Root Causes
Why Conventional Fails
Topical antifungals (nystatin suspension, clotrimazole lozenges), oral fluconazole if severe or refractory, treat underlying cause, rinse after inhaled steroids.
Adequate antifungal treatment but doesn't address gut Candida or systemic issues, doesn't optimize immune function and diabetes, inadequate use of probiotics to restore balance, recurrence common without addressing root cause.
