Médico está sempre certo!
He is not the only one…unfortunately! and despite 7 years of studying many still don’t know that if you kill all good bacterias in your guts with antibiotics you have to replace them with probiotics….to avoid risk of candida !
A major “amigo falso” is “constipado.” The meaning in English is very different from that in Portuguese. 🙂
