Here is an abbreviated version of a questionnaire, created by Dr. William Crook and designed to test for Candida.
For a more detailed, clinically-proven questionnaire, along with my own Candida questionnaire, take a look at my Ultimate Candida Diet treatment plan.
The main difficulty with testing for Candida is that everyone has it! It is not the presence of Candida that is a problem, rather is is the overgrowth of Candida that gives you all those nasty symptoms.
Interpreting the Results
Women
A score of 10 or greater indicates that your health problems may be connected to a yeast overgrowth.
A score of 13 or higher suggests that they are almost certainly yeast connected.
Men
A score of 8 or greater indicates that your health problems may be connected to a yeast overgrowth.
A score of 11 or higher suggests that they are almost certainly yeast connected.
