Does soaking them in salt and baking soda help with digestion?

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Hi, Sorry, even though beans are okay if soaked properly, only 1/4 cup per day should be consumed by anyone in the early stages of curing candida, like Jeanne V. Also carrots are too high in sugar for her and others like her, but everything else is great, and it sounds delicious. Thanks.

Add some salt, stevia or other sweetener, oregano, basil, bay leaves, cayenne, or whatever you want. I usually strain a bit off to drink, which leaves the remaining pulpy like a thick sauce. Use it on chicken with quinoa or brown rice or whatever. Cut up veggies and make soup, this is really good. Add some beans, onions, celery, chili powder, and every kind of pepper you can think of for chili. Soak the beans overnight with salt and baking soda first. Add just some beans and cook a long time for brown beans. Blend it up with split peas for a different thicker soup base. Most of this stuff is a nasty brown color but it tastes better than it looks, a lot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Dear " Far Beyond Average " I'm going to disagree with the suggestion below. Carrots, tomatos, beas, split peas are not acceptable foods for Candida sufferers. The first two are high in sugars the last two are starchy. Cashews are also suspect due to moulds on them. Please do not eat these if you want to control Candida.

Dear Irene, Thanks, I agree with you, but I missed the split peas. Cashews are definitely out but I have neglected to list them as a no no. Tomatoes aren't high in starch, are they?

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Jeanne Marie Can you handle fresh onion, garlic, ginger and coriander? If so, you can lightly saute these in coconut oil, add a tin of coconut milk and a little sea salt and you have a curry base. You can poach fish in it or meat and veggies. I find it delicious. Can you handle eggs and mustard (home made)? If so you can make mayonaise with eggs, lemon juice, mustard, salt and olive oil. Add crushed garlic if desired. Nitrate free bacon is available, please do some searching. What country/state are you in? I can probably find contacts that can help you. If you can handle butter, you're probably OK with cream? If so, you can make some ice-cream. I won't go into details, in case you can'thave cream... Anyway hope the above will give you some ideas. Also consider duck, pork and lamb...

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Bee Just checked it. I typed in tomatoes red ripe raw (into the main search page, that's the second link I posted) and went from there and there is definitely fructose and glucose and no starch listed. May be there is starch in other tomatoes. I'll have to have a more thorough look.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Every anticandida diet I've EVER seen over the past 20 years includes tomatos in the OK list. Even low carbers eat lots of tomatoes and my sil has diabetes. I find it hard to believe that they cause a problem unless you are sensitive to them. But anythings possible. Maybe we need to find out if they are a problem for us. Hugs, Carol B __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have to do things like that to get protein into our boy. The key is to start with just a tiny amount and build up slowly with each batch. I'm not sure about a meat muffin recipe but you could probably add a tiny bit of chicken or other bland meat to a muffin pretty easily. I use the Gluten-Free Pantry's Old Fashioned Cake and Cookie recipe as a base for muffins and cookies and have experimented with adding a bunch of different things to them. It's a bit lower in sugar than other mixes. They usually turn out really good. I've found that adding extra egg yolks boosts fat and protein and cuts down a bit on the sugar/carbo effect. Also, almond butter or cashew butter substituted for the shortening/butter on the recipe on back of the package makes terrific, high-protein snacks that also cuts back on a lot of the sugar. I used to make them with peanut butter before my son started reacting to it and they were very good. This doesn't work for those who need to be nut-free but we recently added back in nuts to add more fat/calories and so far so good.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Hi all -- Love reading everyone's food ideas...I need some ideas for HIGH PROTEIN snacks, main dishes, and side dishes. Dr. G says is eating too much carbohydrate-based food. Here are the only protein foods he will eat: chicken nuggets, cheeseless pizza with pepperoni, fishsticks, smooth peanut butter, and chocolate cake made from black beans (South Beach Diet recipe, made from black beans, eggs, cocoa powder and sweetened with Splenda). He used to eat turkey and ham, but has been rejecting it lately (gagging!). And of course, he won't eat goat's milk cheese. Anyone have a good muffin or bread recipe with chicken or other meat in it? Or is there something else I can do with beans (they can't LOOK like beans!)??? TIA for everyone's help!!

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Does he tolerate soy based stuff? If so, try using soft tofu in recipes. My little guy loves yogurt, but look for the kind made with tofu or soy in the health food stores. Sweeten it with the Splenda and try various fruits if he will eat them or in our case, we use cinnamon. You can also try the pre-mixed stuff, watch for sugar. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of princesspeach Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 10:37 PM Subject: Re: food ideas Hi all -- Love reading everyone's food ideas...I need some ideas for HIGH PROTEIN snacks, main dishes, and side dishes.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Donna I also remember making in the past garbanzo beans....baked in the oven to make them crispy....they are almost like corn nuts. But they need to be seasoned somehow and I have yet to come up with a good seasoning. Others have used spicy things like chili power, garlic, red hot pepper. Here is the recipe using Ranch dressing mix. Roasted Chickpeas 1 can chickpeas (also called garbonzo beans), rinsed and drained 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 Tbsp dry Ranch dressing mix Preheat oven to 425. Spread peas out in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Drizzle with Olive Oil then Sprinkle with 2 T dry ranch dressing mix and toss to coat. Bake for 20-45 minutes, tossing 1/2 way through. If you like them more crisp, bake them for 45 minutes. If you like them less crisp and less dry, cook them less. An alternative would be a sprinkling of garlic powder & dried parsley. > > > > Hi , > > The snacks we like are Tings, Wyle pretzels, Utz potato chips, fruits, > > carrots and ranch dressing (coconut milk, canola mayo, lemon juice and > > spices).

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Doesn't Dr. G forbid all nut butters (except for the smooth, processed peanut butter for kids who don't react to it)? I was using sunflower seed butter for a while (sunflower seeds are not nuts), but Dr. G said to eliminate it.
