Hi TW, oddly enough corn is ok for me. THough people talk about mycotoxins, I've not really had issues with it. I've had problems with most other grains though, even rice. I stay away from cornflakes because on the packet it contains sugar and malt.
Corn on the cob is probably ok, but the only possible problem it might be a little bit sweet and may feed or flare up candida. It depends on how bad you have candida as to how many carbs you can tolerate without a flare of symptoms or even a relapse.
Like for me, I can have some puffed corn cereal from a healthfood shop, but I have to watch corn on the cob. I stay away if I can from the Old world grass grains, that apparently go beyond just gluten, there are other problems. And eliminating them can reduce levels of candida.
Potatoes are a problem, I stay away from them. If I start eating potatoe chips, i can't stop and then I relapse and have to start the diet again.
But then again, potatoe chips contain flavouring, which contains the sugars and yeasts and other problems. So it's not just the potatoe I guess.
