Gentle and effectiveJun 13, 2009
By Dave Gray I had a stomach ulcer that did not respond to the usual antibiotic and antacid/H2 inhibitor therapies. Then my blood tests showed signs of yeast overgrowth (candida, indicated by high levels of d-arabinitol) but no sign of h. pylori, the usual "ulcer bug". This led me to wonder if my ulcer might be fungal rather than bacterial, and the doctor suggested I could try caprylic acid and pro-biotics (yogurt, kefir, and/or pills with acidophilus, bifidus, etc.) for a while.
Just the word "acid" in "caprylic acid" made me scared that this stuff was going to make my stomach burn even worse, but after stalling for many days, I finally took a full dose of Capryl. I chose this product because of the sustained release and the mineral supplements (calcium, magnesium, zinc) it also provides.
Well, I braced myself for an increase in burning pain and had the soda bicarb all ready to drink whenever it started...but there was NO burning pain! That actually made me a little ticked off at myself, thinking how long I had put off taking the Capryl and continuing to hurt.
Now I did experience some extra discomfort in my bowels for a few days - some cramping, gassiness, urgency, irritable bowel type symptoms - but maybe that was the "die-off" of the candida the doctor had warned me about, because two weeks later, I was still taking Capryl but with no more bowel problems...and no more ulcer!
I'd like to add that it is probably important to follow caprylic acid therapy with a term of pro-biotics because I've read some evidence that caprylic acid can kill off some of the intestinal flora (the good bacteria you need) along with the yeast cells (which you DON'T need).
CAPRYL IS WONDERFUL FOR BREASTFEEDING / BREAST YEAST INFECT.Mar 16, 2012

after two 2 week treatments of diflucan for a very painful breast yeast infection while breastfeeding, doc said i can't live on diflucan and infection kept returning as well as the pain. i found on an internet site that capryl works against yeast. i tried it and IT WORKED PERFECTLY, IT WORKED AS WELL AS THE DIFLUCAN but w/out prescription and safer for me and baby. i used it for 12 months non-stop while breastfeeding my son! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FOR ANYONE SUFFERING as breastfeeding should NOT be painful!

By ARiggs Hard to review vitamins. However, better to buy them here than at the local store's huge mark-ups.
