Guest guest Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 , for some reason I always associated beets with sugar.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Beets are a high-carb vege, very sweet--handle with care, not to overdo.. ~Louise [i would treat 'em like a fruit and eat very sparingly..] ________________________________ From: douglas <dglsrichey@...> candidiasis Sent: Sunday, May 15, 2011 10:38 PM Subject: Beets?

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Sugar beets differ significantly from regular red beets in sugar amount and visually by color. Sugar beets are tan and most at this point are GMO. Here is a pro link for beets (interesting reading especially the glutathione ). http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice & dbid=49 That said, when first addressing a candida problem I would limit their consumption as they do have natural sugar. They tend not to cause reactions in food sensitive people (that's good) and are a powerhouse of nutrients (both leaves and root). Joan They don't call them sugar beets for nothing. :>) ________________________________ , for some reason I always associated beets with sugar. I just saw them ok'd on one list.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Joan, from that I would assume one could try a little and see how one does.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 My sister was on the Gerson cancer therapy and they had her making raw beet and carrot juice. Both of these vegies have a high sugar content, but beats are so helpful in cleansing the liver, so it may have more benefits then risks. > > >I've seen conflicting listings as beets being ok or not for the candida diet.
