HI Diane,

You're welcome I know how it feels and candida has been a big part of my life due to ongoing health problems from mercury, virus and possibly hidden cavitations. Many reasons for a challenged immunity.

Saunas can be very helpful, so long as you don't overdo them and make sure you are replacing minerals. Sweating out toxins from deep tissue is helpful. As is the exercise I mentioned.

Stay away from chips and salsa and things like that. Though the cravings are difficult, it is necessary to battle through them regardless. Try and make sure you fill up on the things you CAN eat. Don't let yourself stay hungry for long. Cravings are not true hunger anyway, but often withdrawal and candida dying off. But you can help this a little by making sure you're full up on the safe foods.

I'm not sure how long you will need to be off fruit, but it maybe for months or more. Depends upon your response to the diet and how much progress you make, as to whether fruit will be tolerated or not.

Excessive tiredness can also occur during healing and die off. It can last weeks or more. It is difficult to endure because the body's energies are now concentrating on healing. This is often why intially I get weak muscles, aching and tiredness as the energies are being used elsewhere for healing. It is a process of healing and not normally a quick fix.

Your diet sounds good to me. Make sure you eat enough and supplements can be helpful also. Rest is also important during the first stages of healing. Exercise is good, but generally it's better to wait until you feel better from the diet before engaging too much in physical activity. Because again, energies are being used on healing and coping with die off. Though again, moderate exercise maybe helpful a few times a week, so long as you don't overdo it.

Cheers!
