Guest guest Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Candida has no belly. Theoretically, if there is more food available, it will reproduce faster, so you have more candida to kill. I tried being low-carb for months and also the antifungals. I am still waiting for the test results that would say if I have candida or not. Avocado may be the best fruit, because it contains tons of fat and little sugar, so it does not feed the candida.
