Hi MIM44,

You're very welcome. If it can help me? I reckon it could help almost anybody. But yes those are things you are having are harmful. I know fruit should be healthy and it is, but it is still recognised as sugar by any candida you may have and it will feed on that almost as well as actual sugar. Unless you have only a mild case of it and can handle "some" fruit. I would never go overboard.

You can consume tomatoes and lemons on this diet by the way and tomatoes are classified as fruit anyway....apparently.

Make sure you include plenty of protein and healthy fats too. Believe it or not, they are very healing and you would do well to read the studies of Dr Weston Price. The healthiest cultures he studied around the world consumed these types of foods (wonderful specimens these people are). I have also been in touch with some biologic dentists who have specific diets for patients and part of that is also getting them off the no fat/low fat diets which are NOT good (but are proposed by the new age diet gurus). And get them back on normal healthy fat and protein diets and they start healing better.

The best fats/oils you can consume are butter (great one for mercury, Dr Huggins specifically mentions this one), extra virgin olive oil, extra virgin coconut oil, lard, and mercury free fish oil (if you can find a brand that is molecularly distilled). And even fat on the meat is ok, I eat both meat and fat. If it were not for this? I'd have been even worse off than I am now, I believe they help. Dr Hal Huggins recommends proteins like eggs and meat and plenty of butter for mercury toxicity. He also recommends having enough salt in your diet.

I got heart symptoms when I was consuming hardened vegetable oil type fats, yet I am fine on all the oils and animal fats I mentioned above!

And yes coffee and sugar and wheat/gluten/yeast are dreadful. All those did me so much damage, that I cringe at the thought of what may have happened if I had not eliminated them. The thought scares me, and I am so thankful and glad that a good doctor who also believed in alternative medicine pointed me in the right direction and treated my candida. THough it was amalgam toxicity I had, this diet still saved my life ( I really believe that).
