I tried to add fruits to my diet several times since 2013. it was a disaster, I was more tired. I understood I had to ban fruits. I can’t eat even one apple. Even few fruits has a consequence on my health. First I tried fruit juices. It was the worst. Then, I tried fruits and my health condition was not better. Once I stopped fruit, my health condition started to stabilize. Lowering the amount of carb intake is the most important.   [End]

I want to be clear. Since 2013, I tried to incorporate Fruits in my diet. I stopped to drink Alcohol, coffee, tea. i stopped eating cakes and sweets. i eated fruits from time to time as dessert and between lunch and dinner. it was a disaster and I felt even more tired. For your information, when I stopped fruits, my health condition stabilized. For me it is a big no to fruits, There are both glucose and fructose in many fruits. There is no good sugar.   [End]

Hi, Since more than 10 years, I am a member of this forum and I suffered from Candidiasis. I am just recovering now after finding the root cause of my problem. Caffeine and theine. A long time ago, I started to drink coke and my health started to get worst. Then, i moved from coke to Coffee, I had my first candida crisis back in 2004 and it lasted one year. Then, I switched to green tea organic and I didn't recover.  Then, I stopped sugar. I didn't recover at all. I stopped alcohol, I didn't recover but stopping alcohol was a blessing and slightly helpful.  ... [Image Embedded Here]

Dear Aliprice, I noticed exactly the same things than you in the same manner. I went for a glass of fruit juice per day, and some fruits. I got my belly bloated and symptoms came back worse when i stopped fruits. Fruits are bad People have no scientific arguments over the fruits properties to kill Candida. On the other hands, Many fruits are used with Candida to create different alcohol like wine. Yeast feeds on Fructose to create alcohol. Fructose is the closest sugar molecule to Glucose. Fructose is a simple carb just like glucose in Soda.   [End]

I am french and i do think red wine IS good. 1. Alcohol is not converted into Sugar but Acetic acid in the liver. No way to feed any parasites with it. 2. Alcohol kills ”wine” yeast at the end of the Red wine making process. 3. Red Wine contains only 2.5 - 3 grams of carbohydrates per 100ml as much as spinach !! 4. Red wine as polyphenols. Not only resveratrol but also other ones that have not been yet discovered. 5. Wine lower blood sugar level Conclusion. Lots of people blame Alcohol but i think sugar and complex carbs are WAY more harmful. I think p ...

That is a very good post. I experienced it. I took lots of antifungals but i was taking at the same time lots of carbohydrates. I had horrific die off and no recovery. I think only low carb diet is working. But it means NO FRUITS as well. I tried it. I used to drink 16 oz fruit juice every day. It stopped any recovery. 20-40 grams complex carbohydrates maximum per day. It is the only way.   [End]

 Hi, Some arguments: 1. Foods high in simple carbohydrates include fruits, sweets and soft drinks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate 2.  The procedure for preparing yeast starter is simple: Boil together 1/2 cup (~120 ml) fruit juice, 4 tablespoons (~60 ml) sugar, 1-1/2 cups (~360 ml) water and a pinch of yeast nutrient for three minutes to sterilize. Pour into a sterilized container. When the temperature has fallen to near room temperature, add the wine yeast. Cover the container so that the carbon dioxide can escape. For example, a sheet of plastic wrap held in plac ...

I will give support to this idea for the readers. Dear readers. It is easy to stop fruits, it is worth a try. It is not vital to eat fruits. Now i do think processed sugar = Fructose for the Candida. And i want to add there is no good fruits. You have to avoid all fruits. Fruits are full of fructose. We know candida feeds on sugar. Do you expect a miracle ? I think many people here are misleaded. They think fat is the big enemy. Now i do think Sugar is the biggest enemy. And sugar is everywhere in any forms. 1 week after stopping fruit juiced and fruit, my taste totally c ...

One year and a half, i came to this forum, and i saw some people advised to eat fruit and drink fruit juices. So i used to drink 16 oz of fruit juice every day and eat fruits on a regular basis. Meanwhile, i took Garlic pills, Echinacea, Elderberry pills, coconut milk. During some weekend i did some tests. I decided to take lots of garlic pills (20 per day and lots of coconut milk). i had horrific die off symptoms each time but no recovery.

That is a wise post KEBOD ! I did the same and i had the same outcome. By eating fruits, i had incredible horrific die offs if i would eat natural antifungals (garlic,echinacea...) I do think Fruits feed the candida. it is full of fructose, dont expect a miracle while eating fruits. For one year, Fruits were my only source of sugar, that s why i m convinced it helps the Candida. People speak about Fat and Alcohol but i think the big evil is Sugar in ANY form. Fat and alcohol are nothing compared to sugar. By the way, i didnt notice special by eating fruits and nothing else. ...

I do agree about Sugar. We should BAN all sugar. No sugar at all. Buy only raw vegetables and that s it. Even once per month. By the way, i tried honey and it didnt have a beneficial consequence. So i would suggest no milk based food check if any processed food have sugar in it raw vegetables again and again No i m think are we just trying to eat like our ancestor 10,000 years ago ? when very few fruits were available? when only few vegetables and meat were available ? No my taste totally changed from sugar to salty. I more and more think Sugar is the BIG devil.   [End]

I calculated that 1 big glass (250ml) of water with one teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate (4mg) will provide you 10 times more bicarbonate than a glass of bicarbonate water.

I have a candidiasis. And what i witnessed. When i drink or eat something that is acidic, i will have to go to the loo 2 hours after eating or drinking it. It creates bowel movement. So if acidic is so good for the candida, why do i have bowel movement ? When i eat alkiline or drink alkiline juices, nothing happens. i did a Ph stool test, and it appeared to be too acidic. On the other hand i have low stomach bile. It takes longer for me to digest things. To give you an example, if i drink orange juice, one hour after drinking it my stomach will inflate.
