Guest guest Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 My husband and I avoided pumpkin and butternut squash in the beginning of our diet, but we added it back about a month later and we now eat a lot of both. We don't seem to have any problems with it. Keen candida diet Hi all...a question.. Is pumpkin generally permitted on a strict candida diet? I know potatoes and other high carb vegies are out but after searching for some time, was not able to find if pumpkin is safe. Anybody know? Thanks.. ________________________________________________________________________ ____________ Don't get soaked.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 You will find that coffee is a hot topic around here. I used to drink 2-4 cups of regular joe with cream every day. When I started my candida diet I switched to a swiss water processed decaf black and lowered to one to two cups a day. I have had no issues with it, the swiss water process is a non-chemical way to get the caffeine out, and with no sugars or carbs it can't feed candida. IMO it is definately better not to have the caffeine, and I don't really miss the cream, but I since I live in NH I like my warm cup of coffee in the morning. Hope that helps a bit. 7 months 2 days. Also, fitday.com can help you track the nutritional content of food. > > Hi, i'm new and looking for a decent > candida diet of what is ok and what's > not. > What about coffee?

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 Hi there I realise now that I have had a yeast infection (candida) for 17 years and most likely the precuser to the thyroid problems and the really severe Fibro pain that has kept me incapacitated. I have been researching this extensively lately. There is some good info in the files section here. It also explains the very large dose of meds that I am on as I dont think the thyroid hormone gets 'in' past the bacteria. I expect to be using a much lower dose when this is sorted out. (3gr Armour, 100xT4 and 20x T3) and I have never been able to raise my FreeT4...... I am currently doing sugar/flour/dairy free diet and homeopathics plus probiotics (3 time a day), and now getting relief, but a ways to go yet as I only started Homeopathics two weeks ago but definately getting relief from it. I am also awaiting a supply of Humaworm from www.humaworm.com (USA) which is a herbal formula recommended to treat candida and also parasites and OK to take with homeopathics. There have been some incredible posts about humaworm and candida on the www.curezone.com site in 'Ask Humaworm' (left hand column). I wouldnt recommend the curezone site usually as its a bit flakky in my opinion, but the humaworm posts are informative. I told a previous doc that I was 'gagging' my throat 3 years ago.....now that was the candida in my throat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 Presciptions , a month of a detox treatment and candida diet did not make an impact. Diflucan tables taken once each week (*very expensive if not on prescription) did dry some up, and is available via Pzifer in 50mcg,150 and 200 which are taken for a month. Also read that the candida comes back if probiotics are not introduced after. The yeast inflection also explains why I continued to put on weight despite excellent diet - my one cuppa with milk and sugar each day was enough to 'feed the yeast'. and a candida diet has brought some extremely funny cravings............all include flour,sugar and dairy Sorry this is so long but hope it helps in some way and I know it didnt answer your question - but perhaps I will be able to answer it fully in about 6 months.

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hi Barb Go to our FILES (find the link at the end of this message) and scroll down until you see "Candida - what's good and what's not" that posted and scroll a little further down and you can see the diet that McDonagh (Chairperson of the National Pure Water Association) used to get rid of her own Candida problem. did a lot of research in order to find a 'diet' that actually worked for her when all else failed. Watch those choccies over Christmas and that plum pudding and mince pies - or, are you going to go mad and start the New Year with your Candida diet. Hope you have a wonderful time. luv - Sheila PS - I do know that lots of raw garlic is wonderful as it is a breat bacteria killer. Candida Diet Hi everyone,Probably not the best subject to bring up just before our big Christmas celebration with all the yummy chocolates and food :-) but I was just wondering whether any of you have been successful with eliminating Candida and whether you have any tips for me. I plan to start in the New Year but I would really appreciate some feedback. What food and medication worked and what didn't? Did you find that your response to thyroid medication improved once candida was eliminated? Thanks so much. Happy Christmas everyone. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Guest guest Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hi Waht temperature is it right now in Oz and will you be having Christmas dinner in the garden? I so envy you at this time when we are having very cold 9and in some places VERY foggy conditions, with cancelled flights, rain promised for Christmas Day - Grrr!. Anyway, we will have a good time despite all this and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year too. Have you looked at the Candida Diet devised by McDonagh (Chairperson of the National Pure Water Association in the UK). She suffered badly with Candida and nothing would shift it until she devised her own diet that DID help her. Have you considered you could also have an adrenal problem that isn't helping matters as you have been ill for such a long time. The adrenals just can't take the strain. Have you had a 24 hour salivary test to see what is, or is not happening with your adrenal hormone output. There are so many problems that go along with hypothyroidism that must be sorted to get one functioning properly. Also, have you considered that you may have a conversion block and you just need to be on T3 ONLY as we are finding out so many sufferers have this problem and can't increase their Armour or T4. Have you had any recent blood tests to see where your FT4 and FT3 levels are. If not, it might be an idea to find out. I understand your interest in Humaworms but have never heard of this being used in the treatment of Candida. Have you any experience of this and/or evidence that these will work, or is it just thought to work? Do you know if you get the same 'die-off' symptoms using Humaworms as you do when killing off Candida in the conventional manner? Luv - Sheila There have been some incredible posts about humaworm and candida onthe www.curezone.com site in 'Ask Humaworm' (left hand column).

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Hi Shelia, Yes we had lunch in the garden, BBQ and Seafood and lovely cool 26C 65% humidity and thank goodness a cool breeze under the marque. My DIL did bollywood dancing and grand Daughter (13) gave magic trick presentation with help from a 'volunteer from the audience 'and the assistance of my other grandaughter 4. who we all said had magically vanished !!!! BUT, its not a 'real' christmas....................need cosy fire and hot roast turkey for a 'real' christmas Re Candida: I did join a candida group which I think was run by the same lady, but I wasnt game to ask a question. > I have had two lots of salivary adrenals tested, 1st was very low and was on 5 mg pred for quite a while. I am trying to recall my 2nd salivary test, must have been Ok, else I would have remembered. After my next set of bloods, now due, I will go onto a T3 only regime as I am expecting to have to reduce meds after getting rid of the Candida and it will be easier to get any excess out of the system with just T3 You definately get die off with Humaworm and is definately for candida as well as parasites. On the www.humaworm.com site they have the list of ingredients and a breakdown of what each herb does in the forumla tab. On the www.curezone.com site (very flakky site) there is an 'Ask Humaworm' forum and ppl post, as they do here, about questions and their results. All of which are very impressive. You can only take this for one month and then you cannot take it for 3 months. Fellow who puts it together is 4th generation Herbalist. They are very inexpensive, and ground from fresh herbs on day they are mailed. I expect mine to arrive in a week and will let you all know how I get on. I am in a pretty bad way, as I think its in my lungs as well, and although diet does work for some, if the candida has become systemic and grown roots down deep into everywhere, its diet plus herbs or medication that may be necessary. Keeping in mind that all food turns to glucose. I had the Naturopath look thru the ingredients and in fact she is very interested in the product. I must admit I am not looking forward to the next month and am on a liver support in preparation to help cope with the detox when it comes plus Vit C and gallons of water to keep flushing it. Hopefully I have made 'some' impact with the candida diet since October, metagenics detox (thought I was dying) some diflucan antifungal, priobiotics 3 times a day etc etc etc.....My throat is still 'gagging' aaarrrgghhh. Nevermind, at least I now know what I am fighting. sorry for long post. May be too weak to write longer ones soon...................lol I will post updates.

A week ago, I read a post in another forum, somebody suggested making pancakes of chickpeas or quinoa flour and water, and roasted chickpeas. I tried it, and it made me fill much better. > I wonder if it is really permitted to consume chickpeas flour or roasted chickpeas on a candida diet. +++Hi Shaul. No, chickpeas in any form are not okay on the candida diet since they feed candida, and also even healthy people should prepare them correctly so they are fit for human consumption. Yes, eating such carbs can make you feel better since your candida craves carbs so it doesn't have to die. It is common to experience relief, however you are doing yourself a disserve by feeding your candida, which is counterproductive. > > One other unpleasant question. Since I started the diet, (I eat a lot of greens) I have only green stool. Is it normal? +++Foods can influence the color of your stools, but also toxins being released will also make the stools green. +++I don't recommend eating any raw vegetables when you start on my candida program since they are very hard to digest, and fibres in them aren't helping your digestion.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 > > I am just wanting to know how long do you follow for the regime for removing candida?? +++Hi there. What is your name please? Candida cannot be removed, " killed off " or eliminated since it doesn't work that way. Candida is only cured by building up the immune system, strengthening and improving the condition of the body, which is done by: 1) Consuming " proper nutrients " (diet plus supplements), 2) Eliminating toxins and foods that feed candida (they also feed bacteria and cancer), 3) Eliminating damaging foods, and 4) Eliminating toxins in general. The time it takes is 1 month of natural healing for every year you've been unhealthy, which for most people today is since before they were born. Only the body can heal itself but it must be given what it needs to do its job the way Nature intended. Please ensure you read two important articles, so you understand candida, and know what you need to do and why: 1) How to Successfully Overcome Candida http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/intro2.php 2) Curing Candida, How to Get Started http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/intro1.php For encouragement and inspiration see these wonderful Success Stories by members of this group: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/success/index.php All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All dis-ease, malfunctions, deterioration, illness, etc. is at a cellular level. So there is only one " actual " disease, which is sick cells. Sick cells cannot function properly, so people need to understand that " proper nutrients " every human requires in order to be healthy is the " key. " That are what the body must have in order to heal itself naturally - AND of course eliminating toxins, damaging foods, i.e. soy, bad oils & fats, sugars, starches, processed foods, etc., toxins in general and consuming low-carbs. Four Reasons Health Fails: 1. Lack of proper nutrition and oxygen. 2. Accumulation of toxins, poisons, and waste. 3. Lowered vitality due to stress, shock, injury, emotional upsets, relationship or financial worries and concerns, etc. 4. Nutritional status inherited from your parents upon conception. This program is " back to Nature " and most people do understand that. All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi Bee, Thanks for your response. It has helped me a lot. However, I have few more questions. 1) You have mentioned Nystatin is good medication to take. But it is a prescription medication. I have been laid off and do not have insurance to see a doctor. Is there any naturopathic medicine or over the counter medicine like Nystatin to kill candida ? 2) I have started following your diet but was wondering, if Brown rice pasta which is gluten/wheat and sugar free ok to have ? 3) I like milk with breakfast tea. Is it ok to use Coconut cream without sugar in tea instead of milk ? The coconut cream has stabilize (Xanthan Gum E415, Guar Gum E412, Carrageenan E407). 4) Also is it ok to take one multi-vitamin every day ? I think i have asked enough questions for today.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi Sadi, I'm , one of Bee's moderators. I'm giving her hand today with questions. See my responses below. > > Hi Bee, > > Thanks for your response. It has helped me a lot. However, I have few more questions. > > 1) You have mentioned Nystatin is good medication to take. But it is a prescription medication. I have been laid off and do not have insurance to see a doctor. Is there any naturopathic medicine or over the counter medicine like Nystatin to kill candida ? ***It's not necessary to take Nystatin. Natural antifungals like coconut oil, oil of oregano and garlic are more effective that medications anyway. Start with coconut oil; it is part of the diet. In addition to being antifungal, coconut oil has other benefits so it should be consumed every day. > > 2) I have started following your diet but was wondering, if Brown rice pasta which is gluten/wheat and sugar free ok to have ? ****The idea of this diet is not to just be sugar free and gluten free. We need to stay away from all types of flours, including brown rice, because they are too high in carbohydrate. If you look at the ingredients on the package, you will see there are many things in it that are not allowed on the diet. Often apple pulp is used to replace the gluten on gluten-free products. Please don't eat that stuff. > > 3) I like milk with breakfast tea. Is it ok to use Coconut cream without sugar in tea instead of milk ? The coconut cream has stabilize (Xanthan Gum E415, Guar Gum E412, Carrageenan E407). ****Coconut cream is too high in natural sugar, so it should be avoided. All of those E-numbers are toxic and should not be consumed. See this article: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/recipes/recipe166.php > > 4) Also is it ok to take one multi-vitamin every day ? ****It is rather useless to have a multi-vitamin because they cannot possibly cram all the needed vitamins into one pill at the proper dosages and without a ton of fillers and other things we don't want. It's best to take the supplements that Bee recommends. Please follow these dosages: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/supp1.php > > I think i have asked enough questions for today.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Dear Sadi, Would you please " trim your messages " before posting them. You were emailed the instructions when you joined this group, along with the rules and guidelines, etc. You can also Search for Message #68009 on the Group's Website for the instructions which are posted every 2 weeks. Thanks a bunch, Bee > > Hi Bee, > > Thanks for your response. It has helped me a lot. However, I have few more questions. > > 1) You have mentioned Nystatin is good medication to take. But it is a prescription medication. I have been laid off and do not have insurance to see a doctor. Is there any naturopathic medicine or over the counter medicine like Nystatin to kill candida ? <snip> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Oh Roy, I feel for you. Maybe it has just not been enough time. As I am sure you know, Bee says most of us have been sick since our birth, and maybe " before " ,(conception), due to the poor nutritional condition of our parents. Even though you may not have had rashes your whole life, perhaps you have have candida that long. I am 40, and have pretty must resigned myself to it taking 40 months of healing for me. That can seem overwhelming, but I try to take it a day at time. Even then, I expect to eat this way the rest of my life with perhaps some additions of properly soaked grains and nuts, hopefully a tiny bit of natural sugars. I think if you are following Bee's plan, check your supplements, make sure you are not doing anything else (Bee says often people try to do too much, like too many anti-fungals or other supplements or treatments, or have too much stress) and try to give it time. Have you tried the coffee enemas yet? I have only done a couple but have found I get a tremendous healing crisis following. Are you having any healing reactions or retracing? Are your fats up high enough yet? (I am newer here too and this is something I am having to work on). Are you getting any signs that " something " is happening? I would say that if you are getting worse or feeling lousy or having any real changes, then things are moving in the right direction. As Bee says, we cannot rush healing. Roy, I want to encourage you to stay the course and try to give it time. I think this is when a lot of people want to just give up, and you CAN do it and stay strong!! Blessings, Marcie > > I have been following a strict no sugar, very low carb diet for five months now, and have been following Bee's diet (almost identical to what I was already doing) and supplements for over two months now. The problem is, it has not helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi Roy: *** Sorry to hear you are not over your rashes after two months. How long have you had the rashes? Herring's Law of Cures says it will take one month of healing for every year of disease. Have you had the rashes for more than two years of your life? Also, are you up to 6T of coconut oil yet? Bee's diet is a high good fat/moderate protein/low-carb diet, so getting your fat intake up is important. Have you done coffee enemas to help with the detoxing your skin is trying to do? Just wanted to check in your progress since you seem to feel disheartened at the moment. I also think the mind plays a big role in health and believe it or not, I would suggest you spend some time each day (or several times a day) thinking really positive thoughts like " my skin is clear " , " I am in perfect health " , " My immune system is strong " ... etc. Let your mind contribute powerful, positive messages to your healing as well as continuing to do Bee's diet. All the best, Marissa > > I have been following a strict no sugar, very low carb diet for five months now, and have been following Bee's diet (almost identical to what I was already doing) and supplements for over two months now. The problem is, it has not helped. I keep reading on this site (and dozens of others) how hard the candida diet is, but it works if one follows it. Well, it hasn't worked for me. It would be easy to follow it if it actually had results, but to keep following it when it doesn't even seem to help is nuts. I might as well eat whatever I want for all the good it does. I guess the only reason I keep on following it is because I figure, bad as my rash continues to be, it could get worse. > Roy T. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
