Anti Candida Diet

[MDRB]

Hi,

I'm wanting to start the anti candida diet. I know that I should cut out sugars, mushrooms, vinegars and fruits but I'm unsure about what else I need to do. What do I need to keep out of my diet permanently and what can I add in (and after how long).

I would really appreciate any advise from anyone who has tried this.

Thanks

What worked for me was to cut sugars, yeasts (including mushrooms and other fungi), vinegars, and fruits. I also started taking caprylic acid capsules, which I continued for maybe two or three months I think. It was awhile before I could add fruits back in, and I would guess the time will vary from person to person. For months it was only one piece of fruit a week at most.

I still avoid the other items, but again we're all different. I use Stevia for a sweetener.

The first two week were the toughest, as there was a definite withdrawal/die-off.

Thanks for the advice

What sort of symptoms can I expect with the die off?

How will I know when it is ok to start adding fruit etc back in my diet?

What I felt most was cravings, but there was enough relief to give me the willpower to continue. Most of this was over in around two weeks.

I don't know if there is a specific sign to suggest that fruits will be more tolerated. I'd simply wait at least a few months before trying any - probably six months or more. That is after you feel great, and know that the candida is no longer an issue. Then try one piece of fresh fruit, like say an apple, and wait a week to see how you feel. I suppose the digestive system will need to re-adapt too, which might also make you feel a little off if you eat too much too soon, even if candida isn't flaring up.

hello

you can find some information about the anti-candida diet here:

if you smoke you have to cut it out cause it makes your immune system weaker.

the symptoms from the dying off are usually gas, bloating, headaches,feeling extremely tired and extremely sleepy, but it depends on how many toxins you have and how strictly you follow your anti-candida diet. Drink plenty of water to help the toxins leave your body sooner!!!

good luck!!

I just found out I have a external yeast infection. I can give up yeast, vinegar, fungi not problem. But fruit? It is about to be summer!!! I can't live without bannanas. When I get sick it is the only thing I can eat.

Are there any foods, supplements that can kill candida? I would be interested in that.

Thanks.

of course there are....I am taking olive leaf extract and it is actually working. You can talk to your doctor about what you can take. You must take a supplement if you want to kill candida. But you have to change your diet too.....there is one supplement that claims to kill candida without making you change your diet. It is called threelak (I am not sure about the spelling) but I haven't tried it....You can check it in the net. Garlik is also a natural candida killer...

good luck

Here are a few that I have heard of:

Grapefruit seed extract

Garlic

Olive leaf extract

Aloe vera juice

Coconut oil

I have heard that some people cut out potato etc?

I can understand giving up the fruit because of all the sugar, but Vegetables???

Is there any reason to cut out vegetables or carbs?
