A friend of mine suffers tremendously with chronic recurring yeast infections. She has been on every medication know to man and still she gets them. She tries to wear breathable cotton clothing, eat yogurt and consume fruits and vegetables over refined sugars and carbohydrates but flare ups still occur. She found a few ideas regarding natural cures for a yeast infection but one of them just sounded unsafe. The suggestion was to put Boric acid in the vaginal area to kill the yeast if traditional anti-fungal medications weren’t working. She did mention that the application of apple cider vinegar to the area did provide relief from the itching and burning.
