I totally respect vegans so much for their love for animals and the environment and I struggle with the ideology of eating animals myself. I tried being vegan for years on and off but found that my body goes into serious depletion mode when I do. If you read the main article from Bee you will begin to understand the exact details of why being vegan is not good for the human body. Especially if you don't feel well. If you feel great and healthy then perhaps your body is strong enough to deal with not getting enough nutrition and all is fine, but if you suffer from illness, then I would highly recommend trying to leave behind old belief systems and listen closely to your own body. I now feel that I can still respect animals by only buying grass fed, free range, organic meats where the animals have better life quality. I also feel that it's important for me to be grateful and honor and respectful the healing nutrition the animals bring me and us. Even Tibetan monks eat animals.

Welcome to our group. You can get Daily Digests, which are easier to handle than individual messages. Yes, the mainstay of the candida diet is meats, eggs, fish, and good fats from animals and fish, along with low carbs. That is because the human body is designed by nature to require a certain set of nutrients found in those foods, and anything less means poor health.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hi Kandyce, I will echo . I too was vegan for a time and my health suffered, but my political will was high. I too wish I did not have to eat animals. At the point when my health was low and I was hypothyroid I saw a naturepath who said to me, after my reply that I was vegetarian, " Don't let your politics kill you. " It took a long time for those words to sink in: a few years, and I find them rather profound. He added that vegetarians often have problems with digestion and allergies because there are too few foods in their diet. Recently I read from one naturepath that most of his patients were vegetarians. I find this striking and yet somewhat ironic, as so many vegetarians and vegans know so much about food and its vitamin content and so on. I hope you can find a resolution for your health and one that you are at peace with. > > > > from what i can see the mainstay of the anti-candida diet is meats and proteins. > > Is there a way for a vegetarian like myself to beat this condition?? > > > > Kween_of_Klubs > > Honestly, I don't think so unfortunately.
