He had a LOT of olives today and yesterday (he loves > them) and his diapers have been not-so pleasant. I can't tell you for sure what's IN olives, but as one who also adores the things, I can tell you that having not-so-pleasant BMs after eating a lot of 'em is par for the course. I think it's got something to do with the fat content (olives are amazingly high in fat) combined with the HUGE amount of salt (why I eat them).

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Becky, I don't know about the olives, but Dr. G recommended Kyo Dophilus (similar to Acidophilus) to help with the digestive tract. It has helped normalize the stools of a couple of our kids (though we still do have some " off " days). I think die-off can start at different times and be different lengths for different kids. Our child just acted very silly (giggly and giddy) for a few days, then WHAM! (on the 5th day) we had a brighter, more connected child and the die-off was gone by.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Olives The best olives you can get are from a middle eastern shop specially from the region of Lebanon or Israel. They are very healthy and do not feed the yeast. You also should add Lebanese olive oil (maybe italian) to any salad as a dressing. It is very healthy for your child and for you. It is great preventative against breast cancer for women and prevents clogging of the artery of the heart in both men and women. It is good fat. & Becky wrote: > Here's a silly question-- Are olives a no-no for anti-yeast diets? Are they pickled or made with vinegar? The ingredients on the can are only olives, water and salt.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Hmmm, Not sure exactly how dry cured olives will turn out when pickled in a brine. In Greece, ripe olives are harvested from trees and typically fermented with salt water and vinegar. Sometimes they are sliced on one side, called " cracked " , so that the brine can better penetrate the flesh. Spices can be added but are not necessary. Definitely worth a try though! Let us know how it works out. PS: some useless info on olives: -olives ripe from the tree usually have white flesh under their black skins... it turns black is they ferment -ripe olives are intensly bitter and the only person I know that can tolerate eating them raw is my dad (he's old and bitter himself) so that's why they are always cured in some way -olives for oil are picked at different points of ripeness and the most interesting oils are from mottled olives that are just turning black/purplish from their unripened green phase --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ ---------- I have these olives. They are organic, raw, sun-dried, Peruvian olives. I had another jar that I marinated and stuck in the frig for months. They are nice now, not so leathery and sweetly dense. So, can I pickle my others? I realize I'll need to transfer them to a larger jar, but couldn't I prepare them as for cucumbers with lots of liquid for them to soak up? Will someone please give me permission? Thank you. Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 you have to make absolutely sure that the olives do not contain vinegar or sugar or flavour enhancers or colours (like some of the " BLACK " olives). I would bet 99% of all marinated olives out there have vinegar in them. so, marinate your own olives, its the only way to be sure Also test yourself for any allergic reaction next time you have olives as follows: 1.stay perfectly still for about 2 minutes and measure your pulse (beats per minute). 2.eat the olive (and nothing else) and start the clock. keep still for the next 10 minutes 3. after 5 minutes measure your pulse, keep the clock running 4. after another 5 minutes measure your pulse again 5. look at the three numbers. Did the pulse rate rise by more than 10 beats per minute from your resting pulse? If so, don't eat them. If not, try the test again later in the day, but this time double the amount you had the previous time. 6. note all reactions symptoms for the same day + following day, as sometimes it takes a while for problems to appear.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Olive Oil is a " good " fat and can be included in the diet. There are others that are better, however. Olives themselves are " pickled " and therfore NOT good on the diet. The pickling solution very probably contains vinegar (not good) and can also harbor bacteria and yeasts. hth, jackie > > hello, i've just started eating green olives recently but have read > that they should be avoided if you have candida. is this correct & > why - i thought olive oil was good for ...? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Both.. there are no differences except that green olives are picked before ripening, and black olives are picked while ripe.
