A member asked:

What are over the counter ingredients to help the body fight giardia? probiotic & garlic? awaiting labs response for stool sample and want to start.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Giardiasis: Probiotic nor garlic is going to treat the giardiasis itself, probiotic might aid to replenish the gut with good bacteria necessary for digestion.
