Which Candida Diet to Follow?

[Guest guest]

I want to start treating my suspected candida in January. It seems that everyone

agrees to avoid all sugars. After that, though, every author seems to have a

different opinion about allowing gluten-free grains, fruit, nuts, beans, or

fermented foods like vinegar and soy sauce. (I don't eat gluten or casein.)

In September, we ate a lot more brown rice than normal (to save money on the

food budget) and it made me very gassy. Does this mean I should eliminate or

just limit rice during the diet? How about quinoa, which doesn't seem to make me

gassy when I eat large amounts?

I could avoid fruit for a few weeks but I can't see giving it up for months. The

same with beans. I don't want to give up nuts. I'm nursing and think I need the

calories. I like coconut but too much coconut milk makes me a little nauseous.

Cooking with coconut oil doesn't bother me.

I want to feel better but I don't want to eliminate foods any longer than

necessary. Any advice?
