tea, coffee, ovaltine, chocolate, etc and all malted products
cows milk, cheese cream except yoghurt and cottage cheese
fruit, fresh, juice or dried (some fresh fruit can be added after three weeks under the direction of your therapist)
mushrooms
peanuts and peanut products
Enjoy the following foods:- Onions and garlic,
Fresh vegetables and their juices (beware of carrot juice it contains a lot of sugar)
Rice cakes, oat cakes (unmalted) ,Ryvita, sesame and original only,
soya milks, butter, cottage cheese and yoghurt. herbs, mild spices,
freshly cracked nuts, seeds
water, fruit and herb teas
cold pressed oils
brown rice and flours, oats

fish preferably unprocessed, oily fish is best eggs, lentils, peas and beans
To kill the yeast:- Caprylic acid or mycropryl (natural remedy from coconuts - kills candida
Nystatin - anti fungal drug (available on prescription)
Garlic treatment - eat a fresh clove raw, can be washed down with milk, water or olive oil - three times a day with or after food
Biotin (inhibits candida)
To replace important nutrients Take a good multi vitamin and mineral, vitamin C and any other nutrients prescribed by your therapist. At this stage chromium should help to control blood sugar.
To re-colonise the gut Take probiotics - Lactobacillus acidophillus, bifidus
Eat natural yogurt daily
Eat plenty of fresh vegetables, organic if possible to provide essential nutrients and antioxidants to repair the immune system and fibre to help repair the digestive system.
If you go to wholeapproach.com you will find a more complete food listing divided up into foods you can eat plenty of, food to avoid, and foods to eat sometimes, and other candida info.

Do a search under my mumber #743. I'm away from my home computer and my saved links on yeast...or go back through pages 2, 3, 4, etc until you find threads on yeast. There are tons of them!
hopeful and dana have some great things listed for you!

I use three products that together do the trick: Primal defense probiotic (Must be POWDER form) x3/day small amount just to make my mouth dark. One jar lasts me for about 10 weeks so the cost is resonable.
Candida Stop (available in Canada; contains pau D arco, caprilic acid and other stuff) a capsule with each meal, but mostly one per day is enough.
I keep at home oregano oil that I use whenever there is risk of Candida or some signs of Candida. This is a fast and strong medication against the fungus. You may experience relieve within 30 min. A few drops in a glass of water 2-4 times daily when needed. It has to be taken as soon as a suspicios symptom appears. Better know symptoms of Candida well.
I don't care much about a diet and eat normally; yes, also some sweets from time to time. With the above described treatment I can afford that. In the past I was on a strict diet and developed Candida. I have figured that diet is not that important in my case.
Typically I am on 2-3 abx.
I observe my tongue and if it is getting whitish I intensify my treatment for a few days. My tongue is a perfect indicator that has never failed me.
