CANDIDA DIET..........it's really easy!Has your doctor or health care practitioner recommended you go on a Candida Diet? You should follow a Candida Control Diet consistently for best results. Even though you may be taking certain herbal remedies to rid yourself of this uncomfortable condition called Candida or Yeast, in order to be completely successful it is best to stop eating certain foods. This Candida Yeast Diet seems unduly strict but if you know the reasons why this will seem much easier for you to do. Here is a list of foods that are suggested you stop eating. Firstly, No sugars or sweeteners are allowed. The reason for this is yeast and fungus thrive on sugar. No dairy products, other than butter and eggs. The reason for this is dairy products contain milk sugars which feeds yeast. Alcoholic beverages, especially beer and wine should be omitted. The reason for this is the fermenting process that wine goes through and beer is brewed contain a great deal of yeast. Mushrooms are not advised during a Candida Free Diet during the first ten days or so and after that you could experiment with them and see how you feel. Common iodized table salt contains dextrose, which should be avoided. Caffeine is not permitted on the Candida Diet. It is recommended that decaffeinated coffee and tea be restricted because of the mold that collects on the beans and leaves in the drying process. Red meat in general contains antibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms because the animal is raised on steroids and antibiotics. If animals are raised without the use of growth hormones and antibiotics, then smaller amounts of meat could be consumed during this Candida Free Diet. 
Melons and skins of fruit and vegetables accumulate mold during growth. It is important to scrub the skins and wash in a bath of Liquid Chlorophyl and water, or a few drops of Silver Shield or Nature’s Fresh. More about these products later on.Some people ask about eating Chocolate while on a Candida Diet. I say NO. Peanut and pistachios are not permitted on this anti-candida diet as each harbors a type of fungus or parasite. Remember this Candida Control Diet may not be a short-term affair. It may take several months in order to see your symptoms disappear. I lived with this special eating regime for many years and eventually found it quite easy and preferred it. I used to refer to it as my wheat-free, dairy-free and sugar-free diet. Can you believe it, I went fruit-free, while living on Maui, where all those beautiful pineapples are grown! When I eventually and gradually went back to eating, what I referred to as ‘normal’, my energy level was not as good and I eventually started feeling quite lethargic and digestive problems started up. I gained weight too. I will make a list of Problem Foods and which foods you could easily replace them with.
