Welcome to our fine Group. > In the " How to overcome candida " article it mentions that you > need to soak the nuts which is fine. But then in another article (which I read on the website) it says you need to soak them and then dry them off in the oven before they develop mold. I was just wondering if this second step is completely necessary? My plan was to leave them soaking overnight, and then drain the water and eat them in the morning straght away, is this ok? > > Also, many candida diets state that freshly cracked nuts are ok. What does Bees diet make of this? Do freshly cracked nuts still need to be soaked? ==>Nuts are too high in carbs so they will feed candida, and that is why they are not allowed on the candida diet, at least when you first start on it. You might safely consume properly soaked nuts after you've gotten through all of the steps in my program. In the past members of this group have experimented with nuts and found they caused problems. Also nuts are very difficult for us humans to digest, and most candida sufferers have digestive problems. But in answer to your questions above, after nuts are soaked they are soggy and most people don't like to eat them unless they are crisp. If you like them that way it's okay to eat them before drying. The best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
