I know, it's really hard. Contradictions are ripe. You'll get enough fibre from vegetables, so no worries on that front. They are actually very fibrous and act as a broom.

Fruit is sugar, healthy, but it can still feed candida. Best avoided, at least in the early stages. Not much contradiction there, most candida diets will say avoid temporarily. It is best to err on the side of caution and go with teh stricter ones. lemons and limes are safe, they are sour not sweet. You can squeeze them in water and drink if you wish

Nuts and seeds are neglible. some say best to leave intially. The stricter diets say it's best to leave them off until you are improved. Also they take a lot of digesting too, and sometimes your system needs a break to heal. Nuts and seeds can be problemic, so it's up to you should you wish to knock them off. Personally I would.

It's the early stages you have to really work on the diet before you can safely loosen up a bit. I know it's restrictive, but it has to be for a time. Eggs are a healing food, some reactions that seem allergic are often healing reactions.

I now it's annoying, but try and hang in there if you can. allergies and so-called intolerances are just simply the result of a loaded immunity and candida. You can be allergic to almost anything with that going on, so it's best not to focus much on that, but rather the healing foods. If you try and focus on allergies, you can go insane.

your body will of course create reactions as it's healing, so they can be interpreted as allergic.

You can eat, eggs, meat, chicken, liver, fish, vegetables like cucumber, lettuce, celery, radish, tomatoe, alfalfa sprouts, cabbage, onions, garlic, etc. So long as you avoid corn, carrots, beans, beets, peas, potatoes etc.

There are a broad range of vegetables you can eat, you just have to look for them. Just be aware of the high carb ones.

I can't really say much more, the diet I recommend is Bee's one mainly over all others. She has studied this her entire life and healed herself of extreme candida overgrowth. She knows what works and what doesn't.

That's all I can say is direct you back to her diet.

AGain it depends whether yu want to do this for yourself or not. Some of us have to, some manage not to. But be aware that during candida reduction, it is slow and you will get moody, tired and you'll feel like you're going crazy with cravings. At first it is like that. It takes time to improve.

Dont forget to have enough fat intake also, being no fat or low fat will make things even worse. These can help.

Supplements too. Problem is, we put so much emphasis on diet and what we're eating, that when we're not able to eat those things it's like some big part of life has been robbed. Try and remind yourself (as I have to), that it is just food, it goes in, gets chewed and goes out. The more important thing is gritting your teeth and bearing it and the cravings so you will finally improve.

The main thing is health. Again, don't feel pressured to do this if you dont' feel candida is an issue. It possibly is however if you feel worse after doing this diet. That's how it normally goes. But again, if you can handle your symptoms without the diet, maybe you can get by with basic eliminations or reductions in the bad foods.

Many of us have to do the full diet and even then it's a struggle. I used to just do it half pie when I wasn't the same as I am now and my symptoms were indeed mainly mercury, not candida. So I didn't really stick to the diet.

however, this time around, I have major problems with candida and finding that it's the biggest battle I've ever had. Diet now is essential, I just have no other choice. I hate it in a way, but that's life. I do cheat on it too and I know I shouldn't. I'm human I guess.

But I have to get back and try and stick to it. It's not really a diet you can cheat on. It's has to be stuck to for a long period of time before results are achieved.
