ilovedogs Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 I wanted to get some input on these products. Have any of you tried both the mindlinx and the Threelac or maybe you've had success with both. I'm having a hard time deciding which product to try first but I am leaning towards the threelac! Thanks, Bonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 havent used either of those we have had success with Candida Clear by NOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolynN Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 ilovedogs, The question is for what purpose are you looking to use the products? These products serve completely different functions. The Threelac is designed to kill off Candida. The Mindlinx is designed to feed in healthy bacteria to improve gut health. Not necessarily to kill of Candida (which I am sure it will to some extent because you have giving your body all the good bacteria to help fight the battle). Mindlinx is probiotic that is also designed to also help you body process carbs more efficiently. My friend, whose son is autistic, has used it with great success. I have used the Candida Clear by Now, that Chemar mentioned for myself to kill off Candida, and had great results. Also, a quick note about Threelac, my dad has used it with great success. Although, I have a good friend who tried it and got really nasty reactions to it. She had to stop taking it after several doses. I know I read on the Internet of another person who got ill from it too. I know some will say it is due to the Candida die off period which could be the case. However, what is interesting is my friend who had never had a yeast infection, in her entire life, got one within days of being on it. She also ended up with really bad cramps. So in my only two cases I personally know off it is mixed reviews. Carolyn N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the candida clear but was using it for myself, not for ds. I haven't heard anything about Threelac at all as I was just beginning to do some research on it!

CarolynN Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Bonnie, Here are a few links that might help you. Here is the definition of a pro-biotic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probiotic . Here is the link to the Mindlinx Probiotic http://www.rockwellnutrition.com/product.asp?itemid=1458 (please note it also comes in straight powder form that is not in a capsule already). For the most part, when you start reading about Three-lac on the Internet, you will read glowing reports. My gut, no pun intended here, is that for general intestinal health you would want to be on a real good probiotic like Mindlinx (I am sure there are a host of other's too). I remember reading Dr. Mercola, who is well known on the internet, saying taking a daily probiotic is one of the best things you can do for your overall health. A healthy intestinal track makes for a healthy overall body. You might just want to read more up on Three-lac. I believe some people even use it as a daily maintenance type of supplement. You could also consider, after you run it by the doctor, using the Candida Clear by Now and a Pro-biotic to get the benefits of both. I just don't know what age you could start using the product. I read the bottle a while back and it does not say. Have a great day enjoying this beautiful Spring weather in Arizona, Carolyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
