Thank you, that was a fantastic response and has made things much clearer to me. Just a couple of questions please:

Once the Candida has died after the days/weeks of denying it sugars can i safely go back to eating some of the things I love, like bread?

Also, do you know of a good website that offeres alternative foods to eat whilst on this restrictive diet? I eat quite healthily, eg lots of fruit & veg, but not very imaginitively so I could do with a good list of alternatives to inspire me.

Thanks so much again for the info. I can hardly believe the responses I've had from here - people really do seem to care about others same situation. I really do hope once my fillings are gone that I feel that benefit too and can be in a position to say the same to others!
