Ever since my naturopath told me not to eat lentil beans every day, I have been eating lots of different kinds of beans. (No gas problems yet, thankfully.) So one day I will have a bowl of kidney beans as a meal in itself, another day maybe string beans, then chick peas, then black beans, etc. Some mornings I have no idea what to eat for breakfast, and I have a bowl of some kind of beans. They seem to be very low in Sugar content. Is this a safe practice, or am I still "cheating" somehow? I was eating bell peppers in large quantities, now I find that "nightshade" vegetables are not safe for candida, although I don't know why. Are beans every day ok, as long as they are of varying kinds?

MoreThis is a reply to # 294,035I'm surprised no one has answered your question. From what I know, you shouldn't eat beans in large quantity because they contain high carboydrates, which apparently feeds candida. Frankly I think it might be nonsense, so I eat beans with salad, no by itself.
Honestly I have the same question about green apples. I just don't know if I can or can't eat them, and no one has given me a solid reply. They contain sugar, about 12-16g per apple.- Re: Beans LynneChrys

MoreThis is a reply to # 294,068Thank you. I am hoping for more feedback on the bean question. The opinions on apples seem to be divided 50/50, although I see "granny smith" apples named as the safest. Best wishes to you.

This is a reply to # 294,068The problem with beans is that they are hard to digest.
I believe that, with the candida problem, any food that is high-carb high-fiber should be avoided.
When the absorption in the lower intestines is impaired, the unabsorbed carbs will be food for the bacterias and yeasts, the soluble fibers too. In an ideal digestion, these bacterias and yeasts don't have access to such amounts of carbs.

This is a reply to # 294,035From what I've read, it's best not to eat too much of the same thing every day. Many candida experts recommend a food rotation diet, where you don't eat the same thing for several days. That way, you're less likely to build up a sensitivity to any particular food. You are varying them from day to day, so that's good. I think you should be okay as long as that's not all you're eating. Judge by how you feel after you eat them, too. That's what I do a lot of the time...if I feel good after eating something, I know it's ok. Problem is, most everything makes me sick (or bloated or light-headed) afterwards. Ahhh, the life...- Re: Beans LynneChrys

This is a reply to # 294,089Thanks for your reply. Everything I'm reading about beans indicates that they are to high in carbohydrates to be a really "safe" food. So now, beans are out too. (Except for string beans.)
