Editors’ note: This study investigating the value and safety of Candin for clinical use in children demonstrated effectiveness and safety. Candin is a reagent or skin test for sensitivity to Candida albicans, a yeast microorganism that can cause infection. The study recommends using Candin in combination with other reagents in infants with anergy to see if they react to antigens other than Candida albicans. Anergy is described in Taber’s OROR

The frequency of intestinal overgrowth by candida albicans is increased in people with celiac disease. In fact, infection by this common organism, also called C. albicans or candida, appears to be a trigger in the onset of celiac disease.1 Candida is yeast, a budding type of fungus, capable of fermenting carbohydrates. Albicans identifies this particular yeast from many others.
Candida albicans usually maintains a tiny appearance in our intestinal tract unless conditions change to favor its growth. It can thrive and invade if the intestinal lining becomes inflamed
