Fruits and candida

[Guest guest]

Hi Crystal,

 

What do mean by " my candida seems to be worse " ? What are you actually

observing?

 

What are you actually eating ... what fruits, in what combinations? What

other foods? Specifically, what high-fat foods ... nuts, seeds, oils,

olives, avocado?

 

Best,

Elchanan

[Raw Food] Fruits and candida

 

 

I have been eating more fruits and my candida seems to be worse. Is

this normal?

 

Thanks,

Crystal

Hi Crystal.

 

It's " normal " , if we don't dramatically reduce the fat in our

bloodstream. An excellent first step is the elimination of " all " overt

fats (nuts +nut betters , seeds + butters, oils, animal products,

olives, coconut, avocados, etc.)

 

We've had extended discussions on this topic earlier this year over on

PathOfHealth, and if I may ask, how much " fat " is in your diet?

 

The reason I'm asking is that there has been substantial research

completed which shows that the real issue with candida and other sugar

metabolic disorders is not with the sugar itself, but with the high

amount of fat that is in our bloodstreams, literally coating both the

sugar molecules and the insulin with fat. In the presence of high fat,

insulin has grave difficulty doing its job.

 

Here's the opening from an extremely long post (orig. #6065)at

PathofHealth from Laurie Masters, who was Doug Graham's editor and

researcher for the book " The 80/10/10 Diet " :

 

[PathOfHealth] High-fat diet's causal role in blood-sugar metabolic

disorders (candida, chronic fatigue, diabetes, etc.)

Hi, everyone. What follows is a TON of information about blood sugar and

fat (both dietary and body fat). Many of the items below are articles I

unearthed while doing research for Doug Graham's new book.

 

If you scroll through this information, you will see that it is no news

to mainstream science that fat plays a major causal role in diabetes

(and by extension the other blood-sugar metabolic disorders like candida

and chronic fatigue, as well). Some of the graphics may not come

through...you can access the original articles at the link given at the

top of each.

 

I hope some of you find this interesting/helpful.

 

Laurie

 

(Orig. post was about 30 pages long, full of technical references, and

supporting data.)

Chapter two of " The 80/10/10 Diet " , 'Meeting Fruit Concerns Head-On',

addresses this topic specifically.

 

Hope this helps a bit!

 

Best,

 

Bob

My face is breaking out more, more gas, and general itchiness. Feels

almost like a yeast infection. I'm still eating quite a bit of SAD

foods. In the mornings, I eat fruits like banana or apple, usually

with a handful of almonds. For lunch, I have been eating soup, beans,

or salad. Snack is more fruit like grapes, raisins, apple, or banana.

I eat whatever SAD food for dinner. My goal is to go raw except for

supper. I'm still working on it. I feel like absolute crap right

now. Moody and tired most of the time. The pains in my chest/breasts

are coming back more, but I think that's probably the heavy metals,

not candida. I am a super picky eater, so I'm having a hard time

going raw.
