| Re: Another cleanse question
Candida feeds on sugar so you need to cut down on carbohydrate high foods. You can eat foods low on carbs and high in protein such as meat, chicken, fish and non starchy vegetables.
Avoid:
Sugar all forms as honey, syrup etc.
Fruit
Potatoes
Any thing made with yeast: bread, vinegar, alcohol etc.
Foods with mold: peanuts, peanut butter
Processed foods: Cheese, bacon, hotdogs etc.
Refined foods: refined flour, pasta, white rice etc.
Coffee, black tea, (I’m not quite sure on this one. It is some years ago I did this program, and have since done other cleanses, liver, kidney etc. where I stopped drinking coffee and black tea)
Some also recommend to avoid dairy products. Organic plain yogurt is ok.
Eat:
Vegetables, chicken, meat, fish, brown rice, rye bread (non yeast variants).
You will need to follow this strictly for a month, and then you can start to relax a bit. You can start to eat fruit.
It took me 8-9 months with no sugar, yeast or alcohol to get rid of an infection that was visible on my skin. I had this infection for 20 years and had tried prescription creams.
It took me a long time to get used to no sugar in my diet. But I did get to a point where I stopped missing it. Since I completed the diet I now use much less sugar then before. I do eat sweats, cakes and drink soda now and then.
It dosn't have to take as long as it toke me. It depends on how long and how bad you have had a problem with Candida.
