I've been staying away from all blatant forms of sugar but even low sugar fruits and beans seem to be triggering it.

Still haven't gotten an answer from any of the doctors I've left messages with.

I see my LLMD next week and I hope he has some answers because it's starting to worry me.

Usually 15-30 mins after eating any type of sugar or carbs I get this tingling in my head/brain. Feel slightly "out of it" as well. Usually last a few hours.


Anybody else?

Is this for all legumes or just one or two types? What about the seasoning used?

As for the fruit, which ones?

Are any of these canned items (the metal from the cans is not great, or the plastic lining in others).


If you prepared the beans yourself, were they washed and then soaked overnight, at least? AND were they cooked completely? Beans that are not cooked enough can contain some toxins.

You are not cooking in aluminum pans, are you?


You might have some sort of allergy or sensitivity to that particular food or spices use.

I don't thing it is from the carbs in the food as our bodies require carbs. We would die without them.

You might just lay off this particular foods but be sure to eat a good supply of complex carbs from other sources, especially veggies - with good proteins and good fats at the same time for glycemic balance.


If you are not already eating only organic foods, now may be a good time to start.

I didn't start noticing this till about 4 weeks ago. It's definitely new and more pronounced with the sugary items below.

*Kidney Beans-Canned

*Refried Beans- (yeah I know is probably not a good idea...I'm trying to clean out the pantry till I can get all-good stuff)

*Grapefruit (plain)

*Ate plain yogurt with strawberries + pineapple (canned & fresh)

*Another time it was strawberries+blackberries+milk

Other things that weren't blatantly sugary were:

*Cashews

*Natural Peanut Butter

*Whole Wheat Pasta


All of these items trigger the same response as if I ate an actual sugary treat (which first got my attention), but on a smaller scale.

No on the aluminum pans.


What could possibly be triggering this overnight sensitivity to sugar?

Dear Flyinpiker,
The Cashews and peanut butter are moldy. They aggravate Candida. Valencia peanuts are the only kind that do not contain the naturally occurring aflatoxins. Fruit is not allowed on the Candida Diet because of the natural sugars present. Beans are allowed, but in very limited quantities, as are whole grains.

A lot of people with a yeast overgrowth are required to eat no more than 1/4 cup of corn, beans, or whole grains at a time. The carbohydrate feeds the yeast. Sometimes my tongue used to tingle before I stopped eating gluten. My gastric issues are very severe, and the yeast certainly plays a major role in that on top of the gluten. You also need to make sure not to eat the same things too often and rotate your diet so that you do not develop sensitivities to additional foods.

Sincerely,
Jin
