I was informed that any who ever took an antibiotic in there lifetime has Candida and I was wondering if ganoderma gets rid of this condition?

Candida is a type of yeast that lives in your digestive tract. It is very helpful to have it because it helps you break down and absorb your food. When the gut flora is in balance, other microorganisms keep the candida from overgrowing. So everybody has candida, and most people have no problems associated with it. When a person takes a course of antibiotics it can upset this delicate balance in the gastrointestinal tract and allow the candida to grow unchecked and cause the condition known as candidiasis, or thrush.

What is yeast candida overgrowth?

Atibiotics do not fix the problem, they help create it.....probiotics along with antifungals, either prescription or herbal, along with dietary changes are the answer. Candida is a yeast that can commonly infect women's genital area, and is commonly called Thrush. The actual name is Candida albicans. If you have an overgrowth it means you have a possible infection caused by this organism. It's not the end of the world. Antibiotics will fix it, but remember to have lots of Yoghurt afterwards. After antibiotics, the natural microflora (bacteria) that line the urinary tract and vagina are destroyed. Yoghurt helps put some back. You can also take a cultured drink or the like. The reason for the infection is because your natural flora has been "overrun" by the Candida, hence the "overgrowth".
