YEAST DIET

Dietary Recommendations:
The dietary recommendations given below are designed to work in conjunction with a nutritional protocol and with in-office treatments. In some cases it may be necessary to strictly adhere to the diet below. Some people are so sensitive to intestinal yeast infections that any wavering from the recommended diet will result in re-infection.

Eat:
· Meats: beef, duck, eggs, quail, chicken, fish, oyster, rabbit, clam, tuna, turkey, crab, shrimp, goose, pheasant, lobster, Cornish hen, lamb, pork, and veal.
· Vegetables (excluding corn and potatoes) asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, eggplant, parsley, zucchini squash, avocado, brussel sprouts, celery, green pepper, peas, tomatoes, green beans, yellow beans, cabbage, okra, beets, carrots, cucumber, onion, radishes, greens: beet, collard, kale, lettuce, mustard, spinach & turnip.
· Nuts: almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, filberts, pecans, and walnuts.
· Seed: sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
· Oils: butter, almond, avocado, canola, corn, flax, olive, sesame, sunflower.
· Brown rice
· Avocado
· Millet
· Quinoa pasta
· Live yogurt (plain)
· Water lemon and grapefruit juice (freshly squeezed only)
· Kefir (a fermented beverage made from whole milk)
· Dairy: whole milk, unaged cheese, cream. Dairy products should be eaten hot. This is important. Unsalted butter and plain yogurt are less of a problem than the other dairy products.
· Miscellaneous: I do not like to recommend these less-than-vital foods. Some may even be harmful. However, for the short term, for taste, and in order to rid the patient of Candida as quickly as possible, I make these exceptions. Nutrasweetâ, Equalâ, Jell-Oâ, rice cakes, sesame rice crackers, Triscuitsâ, Shredded Wheatâ, raw unpasteurized apple cider vinegar, Stevia (available at health food stores). This is a controversial section.

Do Not Eat: These foods cause Candida to grow.
· Sugars: honey, molasses, maple syrup, corn syrup, dextrose, sorbitol.
· Aged cheeses
· Alcohol
· Chocolate
· Citrus fruits (except grapefruit and lemon)
· Dried fruits
· Fermented foods
· Wheat
· Oats
· Rye
· Barley
· Ham
· Nut butters
· Processed & smoked meats
· Raw mushrooms
· Soy sauce
· Sprouts
· All yeast products
· All “sweet” drinks.
· Leftovers (usually contain molds)
· Vinegar-containing foods (catsup, mustard, mayonnaise, salad dressings, pickles)

Snack: If you substitute whole-wheat flour for white, carob chips for chocolate chips, butter for margarine (you should do that anyway) and Nutrasweetâ for Sugar you can make delicious cookies. Eat these cookies hot and in small amounts, but don’t forget to do everything else.

Avoid:
· Antibiotics and steroid drugs (e.g.. birth control pills).
· Chemicals: household products and cleaners, chlorinated water, mothballs, moldy places.
· Other: Use a new toothbrush every three weeks to prevent re-infection. Also, fungus may be spread through the saliva, so sexual contact with another fungal carrier may slow the recovery.

Hi There.

Candida is not your problem.
Candida is in fact your friend.
Its trying to help you.

THere is a lot of misunderstanding about Candida on this forum, thus people are seeing it as the eneemy and are going hell for leather to kill it. They are making every attempt to shoot the messenger. Candida is telling you, that you need to change your diet BIG TIME or get worse. Its also by its nature TRYING to correct the acidic imblance and move you towards being alkaline. Law of nature and thus the nature of a fungus. Merely look at the rich soil and leaves lying on a forest floor. Same deal.

So your approach to try and kill the messenger is a Wrong approach.

What is Candida telling you.

Candida is a yeast/fungus. Yeasts and fungus are only found in acidic envoironements, just as mosquetoes are only found breeding in stangant waters.

Understand the problem, Change the ennvoironement and your problem goes away.

Over time, no fualt of your own you have been adhering to a diet that is mostly acid, and at the same time, indavertantly depleting your alkaline mineral reserves.

You need to fix this or your health problems will get worse.

When the body moves to being more acid at a cellurlar level, you open your self up for parasites and fungus''s. Thats where they love to live.

Going on a anti candida diet is not the solution, NUKING it with anti fungals is not the solution, although will help to contian the problem if you are not exasberating it.

Someone posted a diet on this reply of your that included meats and anothe rcouple of things. The diet is a load of horse poo. That doctor does not understand the problem. Eg Eating meat will make the body more acidic, making the problem worse.

I suggest you find a writter on this and the alkaline Acid forum going by the name MORELESS. List all of his posts. Go through them all, print them off or make notes. His suggestions are cheap and practical.
His mention of Pickling lime and a drink from it, as well as his suggestions with Blackstrap Molasses and Apple Cider vinigar are worth their weight in gold.
Read his posts, understand why, and THEN if you still dont understand, ask questions.
At your ealiest conveneience you will need to get onto a RAw Vegitarian diet. There is a forum for this too.
If you are doiing all this, then by all means assist your symptoms with an antifungal. There are many on this forum.

Look into a book called the PH Miracle. Excellent start.
Look into making your own Kombucha tea to assist with the detox. Excellent stuff!!
Later when you are seeing big improveements, then look into Kefir to get the gut flora sorted out. Cheap easy.


That should keep you busy for a while.

Best of luck, there is enough info here for a lifetime. Read read read, enjoy the journey.
