Many species are harmless commensals, or endosymbionts of hosts including humans; however, when mucosal barriers are disrupted or the immune system is compromised they can invade and cause disease. Candida albicans is the most commonly isolated species and can cause infections (candidiasis or thrush) in humans and other animals. Wikipedia: candida (fungus)

Garlic/prebiotics for healing yeast overgrowth
So I heard from this video by Dr. Gundry (it's super long) that prebiotcs can feed the good bacteria in your gut. But I heard from other sources, I can't remember, that garlic is an antibiotic and also kills bacteria. I must admit ingesting 2-4 cloves a day seems to be clearing up my Candida symptoms, which is essentially an itchy anus. Can someone clear this up?
