Re: Mold Diet Recipes PLEASE

[Guest guest]

Look for Doug Kaufmann's book on fungal link with diet in it, and he

has a recipe book too...I think. The Zone Diet by Barry Sears would

work also.

Boy, I hear you. I also had to change my diet in a pretty big way. But

I was able to do it. You can too. It can be a job, though.

That is probably a big part of the problem. If you are eating food

that the fungus likes to eat, then you are feeding the fungus. I had

a similar problem. It was very hard to change everything in the diet,

I had to modify the candida diet and change it somewhat in order to

feel ok.

What I did was to eat mostly vegetables and proteins, with good fats

added. As a vegan, it was fine. I ate vegetable proteins, not meat.

But you can do it however you want. I also ate NO White foods- they

are almost all starches, and not good. No bread, I ate tortillas, or

rice (brown rice, not white rice). White rice is just like eating

sugar, just ask any diabetic, they are not supposed to eat white rice

either. I did eat a little bit of sugar, I ate sweet tarts candies,

one or two after a meal, or my brain would just not work at all. It

has something to do with brains needing simple sugars, but when the

fungus or candida is eating all that sugar, there is none left for the

brain.

Simple organic foods are fine. So just eating green beans and a veggie

burger patty (a protein rich type, it says on the label) with some

salad dressing on it is a good meal. Add in greens, salads of good

types of lettuce, etc. Simplify, simplify, simplify.

I hope they told you to add some probiotics, like acidophilous, or

Garden of Life probiotic. Those things fight with the candida and help

get rid of it too. The other thing my doc had me take was digestive

enzymes. I took them with meals, and then she had me take them in

between meals for a few days every so often to clean out the gut. It

is important for the food we eat to be digested. If it is not, it

causes lots of problems, and the candida feeds on it too.

As always, this is what worked for me, your mileage may vary, and you

will need to use your own discretion. But diet change is essential.

Also check out the symptoms that show it is working- if it is working,

you will feel awful. It is all on the candida sites....

What do you mean if it is working I will feel awful? I didn't think I could feel

any worse

than I already do..... Can you refer me to a site that clues me in on this?

Thanks,

It is because when the candida dies, it emits toxins. It has to be

killed off one way or another, so there is not much of a way to get

around the die off reaction. It is also known as Herxenheimer

reaction. There are ways to minimize it, they include binders to bind

the toxins in the gut, to keep them from being re-absorbed, sweating

because what ever gets sweated out does not have to go through the

organs, and that also avoids the herx. Some protocols use something to

get the bowel cleaned out during, like enemas or epsom salts to cause

the runs, that also helps, because the bowel is where many of the

toxins become reabsorbed.

The other thing is to push pure water- either distilled water or

purified water, keep drinking, that will help too.

I'll post a few things separately....
