"Lentils can be tough on digestion so some people may have to watch out for that. Beans in general are harder to digest and is one of the foods I removed from my diet while following a candida diet. "

I have trouble digesting beans, but not lentils or chickpeas. I actually like the taste of chickpeas better than lentils, however lentils have more nutrition and much less sugar and overall cabohydrates than than chickpeas, and are also much easier to cook. Lentils have complex carbohydrates and very little sugar. Less than 10% of the carbohydrates in lentils are sugars. Imo lentils are good for an anti candida diet.
