Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 What do you folks eat for breakfast? I know eggs are allowed, poached. I can't do poached without toast. I just ate a bowl of steamed veg. It was good, but now what to eat for lunch. I needs some ideas from some of you guys as to what youo eat at most meals. I can't have any fish because of the mercury.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Hey Deb, If you go to the following files in the Files section, you will find a lot of good ideas on foods you can eat. - " Candida Diet - Foods to Eat " : Scroll down to that title and click on it. You have 3 files in there, two of which are menu ideas and suggestions from members. - " Recipes for the Candida Diet " : Scroll down to that title and click on it. Tons of recipes to choose from. - Re: not eating fish because of mercury: Wild salmon is the one fish my environmental M.D. says is ok... unless you have specific reasons to avoid fish altogether (bec. of mercury). I personally don't restrict my breakfast menu to " breakfast foods " . For e.g.: I can have ground lamb patties with vegetables and tons of melted ghee on all of it, or some other meat or wild salmon & veggies with good fats(coconut oil, olive oil, etc.). Hope this helps. Fran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Bee I can't do a lot of those recipes because of the night shade plants causing increased inflammation.

Inflammation immobilizes an area in order to assist with the healing process, and it also brings more blood to an area for increased nourishment during healing. Good unadulterated foods do cause important healing reactions. Healing reactions are not allergic reactions - See the Folder on Allergies for more complete information.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 I don't know I had a postivie AMA several months ago, but they can't find anything else wrong. They first though it was Lupus or ALS, but the lab test came back normal. Deb [ ] Re: breakfast ideas Just curious, Deb, do you have an auto-immune condition? I have fibromylgia and so, I too, can't have any of the nightshade plants as they cause a flare which can put me down for a couple of days. I've slowly learned to adapt without these plants. What I have for breakfast is a " greens " drink and then a little later a whey protein drink (the protein is sweetened with stevia). The protein is very necessary for the fibro. > I can't do a lot of those recipes because of the night shade plants causing increased inflammation. > > Deb > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The protein is very necessary for the fibro. ==>I caution you about having " green drinks " , depending upon the kind they contain a lot of iodine which can cause problems for the thyroid - too much iodine is just as damaging to the thyroid as too little. You would get plenty of iodine from having the recommended amount of ocean sea salt and butter. ==>Also the protein from eggs and meats is more easily useable by the body than whey protein drinks, particularly Bee's Raw Egg Drink, and also whey is from dairy which candida sufferers do not do well on (except butter), and whey protein is processed which would always contain less nutrients than real foods, plus it can contain additives or be highly heated which also denatures the proteins. ==>As written in my main article under Essential Supplements candida sufferers are advised not to take supplements other than those listed for good reason. Not only do some supplements provide nutrients easily obtained in real foods, but also taking too many different kinds overwhelms and confuses the body and may intefere with the healing process and your progress on the program.
