Dr Atkins really doesn't seem to rate antibiotics very highly, and says they contribute to candidiasis. I'm pretty sure that I've had way more than 10 courses of antibiotics in my life.

Anyway, I have another one now, but want to start the Atkins induction diet as soon as possible. He says you should give up any unnecessary medication. But I'm led to believe that stopping a course of antibiotics before you've finished it can be more dangerous, because that can increase the risk of development of antibiotic-resistant disease bacteria.

But antibiotics themselves are only for 14 days each time. I'm wondering if it's a good idea to start Atkins induction whilst taking antibiotics - or do you think I ought to wait until they're finished? Thanks.
