Take the Saliva or “Spit” Test*

The Saliva Test may be a little “yucky” for some, but it is easy and convenient. Follow these simple steps and watch it work.

  • Pour bottled or purified water in a clear glass before bedtime and set it on your bedside table.

  • First thing in the morning, work up some saliva and spit it into the glass of water.

  • Check for activity every 15 minutes for 1 hour.

  • Normally, your saliva should disappear in the water.

  • If you have a Candida overgrowth issue, you will see any of these three formations:

A – Strings like jellyfish traveling down from the saliva  that is floating on top.

B – Particles or cloudy specks suspended in the water.

C – Cloudy saliva sinking to the bottom of the glass.

 

Diagnostic Candida albicans Tests

Diagnostic Candida tests for men, women and children, are available from your doctor. These scientific lab tests include:

  • Culture Test (for skin and genital yeast infections): A small skin sample is cultured and incubated to determine the presence of yeast, which can be seen under a microscope. Elevated traces of yeast help doctors determine if a Candida infection is present in the skin. If not, further testing is required.

  • Blood Test: The blood is examined for specific antibodies related to Candida overgrowth. If antibody levels are plentiful, there is a strong likelihood of an overgrowth issue.

  • Stool Test: The stool sample is searched for traceable levels of yeast and other bacteria. Although Candida is prevalent in the gut, this test if often perceived as less reliable than the blood test.

  • Urine Test: The urine sample is tested for D-Arabinitol, which is a waste product of Candida. High levels of D-Arabinitol indicate the presence of yeast overgrowth.
