Believe it or not acidophilus-containing yogurts, garlic and unsweetened cranberry or blackberry juice should be ingested regularly as they have been shown to prevent and reduce yeast infections. The acidophilus bacteria is found naturally in yogurt and some cheeses and is known to combat yeast infections. There are also some acidophilus supplements that may help with the production of acidophillus.

Go to the store and buy a small carton of "plain" yogurt -- doesn't matter whether it is name brand or store brand or is nonfat, lowfat or wholefat because you are NOT going to eat it. But make sure it is PLAIN with NO fruit, NO added sugar (milk sugar listed on the carton doesn't count of course), and NO flavoring in it of ANY type.

Alternatively, find a fresh clove of garlic and carefully peel the skin off of it. Be careful not to damage the clove as you peel it as the juices from the garlic sting some people. Try applying a thin layer and massaging it deep into the skin to heal and soothe the affected area.

Many antibiotics, like penicillin, are based on the bacteria-killing chemicals found in fungi. They kill off natural bacteria, creating space for fungi to move in. Probiotics, sometimes referred to as "friendly" bacteria, suppress the growth of potentially harmful organisms, which is why probiotic supplements have been explored as a natural yeast infection remedy.
