Yeast infection and Dog Blood bush and other Jamaican herbs

QUESTION: Hello

Is it possible to use dog blood herb to treat recurrent yeast infection? I have used garlic n tea tree oil but the problem still exists.

What does the plant look like?
With thanks,
Safia Levy

RESPONSE: Dear Safia Levy,
Dog blood bush is useful, and for yeast should be taken with vervine bush (said to be the capital herb for yeast) and the red water grass. These can be sourced it from a member of our team.
You may also use coconut milk instead or corn ears. Be very aware however that yeast infections can be a sign of a bigger problem such as diabetes, HIV. So get checked out if these really do not help, and the infection reoccurs too often. You should get at least consultation as your diet may be off too.
