Anti candida diet?

Can someone here who has done this diet discuss how it works? Is it like paleo? What kind of foods do you eat and what foods do you avoid? How does a sample day meal plan looks like?

Many doctors are moving away from a strict anti Candida diet as they find that it removes too many nutrients and also they are finding that you do not have to be severe when trying to get rid of Candida.

Strict or not strict, like many things here, kind of depend on individual too.

Candida is harder for some. Thats when Diflucan comes in- but thats last resort. Its just more hard chemical Rx for your liver, like ABX is.

Since everyone one loves baked potatoes, I have to say white taters of any sort are a no-no. Its all starch, then sugar an hour later and will make you blot like that up-sided racoon on the highway shoulder..

Holiday time is tough for tough diets. Every holiday season I get some sort of digestive issue going on. I eat stuff I normal dont and.....bingo!

Thanks blueberry! What kind of meals do you have, is it mostly a protein with vegetable 3X a day?

Krimpet- what things can you include that would be ok for the gut?

Check out the gaps diet. It's moreso a way of eating, not a diet. Many people have great results on it. I would definitely include bone or marrow broth. I'm actually trying to ramp up on that. For fruit try those with lower glycemic index and not too much. My doctor told me Granny Smith apples were ok. Sweet potatoes are ok. I personally include protein in each meal. Also brown rice bread is ok. I worked with a nutritious several times and these were some of the things that were shared with me. I'll try to pull out some paperwork and add in a few more things.

I also include fermented vegetables. My fave is sauerkraut by bubbies. But there are a host of things out there. Just choose things without regular vinegar. ACV is ok.
