Guest guest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 > Hi Bee, > Here is the second part: > > Also, this is a dumb question, but just want to make sure I'm calculating it right... my baby is now 9 months old, so since conception, he would be 19 months. So, to cure him, it would be 1 month for every year, so that would be like almost 2 months for him before he's cured, right? After he is cured of this, (and hoping he's finally wanting to eat solids by then), is it still safe for him for me to only be eating the candida diet (in case he's not eating solids and still exclusively breastfeeding) or will he need other nutrients once he's cured? +++Hi . That is correct that it should only take 2 months for your baby to be cured of candida. Yes, it is always safe to only have foods on the candida diet, for you and your baby. Hopefully you are following the recommendations in the Candida Treatments for Babies & Children: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/baby.php - it recommends some supplements. > > Since my son was born, I have been taking the herb Fenugreek to boost my milk supply (in capsules). Do you happen to know if this is safe to take on the Candida diet, or should I stop taking this? +++It isn't necessary to boost your milk supply on this program, since the nutrients will help more than anything else. I suggest you stop having the Fenugreek. > > Also, I bought some Stevia, but just noticed that it said on the bottle to consult a healthcare professional if pregnant or nursing. Is Stevia ok to take while nursing? +++Yes, it is okay to have stevia if pregnant or nursing, as long as you bought the ground up leaf, which should be green in color. Since it is extremely sweet you'd only use pinches at a time. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
