I have been on the candida diet since december. I recently have been eating a lot. I even eat when I am not hungry. I am starting to worry if this continues I will develop an eating disorder since my parents have been giving me a hard time with eating so much. What would you recommend I do in this situation?
I need to eat something other than veges and meat because I get migraines. Without sugar and carbs I’m feeling very low energy. Can I eat brown rice for dinner with chicken and veges? Or will this feed the candida?
Hey guys, I need some advice cause i dont know what to do.
I have been suffering with generally feeling unwell for the past 4 years… pressure headache on my eyes and temples, spacey, dreamy feelings, tiredness, heavy head.. and 2 health shops did a test and said i was a candida overgrowth.. i did the diet for 2 months with no change so gave up..
Howver, I have been feeling really down recently.. im quite big and binge eat.. and went to see my DR. He said the symptoms are more likely to be stress related and that Candida is not the cause of this all.. the problems is I worry cause I have felt like this every day since I was 17 and it’s so bad how can it all be in my head??? It started about a year after a family member of mine died and i started binge eating and feeling bad.
I had blood tests and they are fine, just a slightly underactive thyroid. Should I be on the candida diet?? Im going well at Weight watchers but I dont think its goin to help and im scared to eat some stuff!
I have constipation. Normally thin stools, I just feel that my bowels are not moving properly. The stool is always loose, so it’s not because I don’t eat enough fibre or vegetables.
I have also had a thyroid problem diagnosed, it was overactive.. the symptom for that would be the opposite ie diarrhoea, not constipation.. Anyway then it was underactive because of the medication, but it is supposed to be OK now.
I get cramps and bloating and it’s horrible.
My GP suggested that it could be candida.. Beforehand I had been told it’s IBS C.
Been on the candida diet now for 3 weeks almost, which is terrible as you can’t eat carbohydrates and I don’t think anyone can live on just vegetables and eggs and meat..
Anyway any suggestions whether I could find out for sure if it’s candida. Can candida cause slow transit time ie thin stools?
I just wish I was healthy again. My trouble started one and a half years ago, any suggestion from anyone?
I have chronic bad breath with a white coating on my tongue that will not come off when I scrape it. I’ve had this problem for about 10 years but never knew anything about Candida. This morning when I woke up, I did a spit test and my spit was a bit stringy. Does this automatically mean that I have Candida? I don’t really seem to have any other problems but this bad breath will not go away and I know it’s not due to oral health because my mouth is in great condition.
Should I go to the doctor? Could he prescribe me something to get rid of the yeast? Or do I need to follow a strict anti-Candida diet? Do you think going on this diet would help with my breath?
I’ve already cut out dairy and any food items with dairy in it. I’m still eating meat…chicken, beef, etc.
A few months ago, I was screaming in pain from intense vaginal itching and burning…I could tell there was something wrong, but my husband took a look at me (he is a doctor) and said he saw no sign of candidiasis. I took some over the counter anti-fungals just in case. The next day, everything was swollen and very irritated, and there was like a yeast free for all down there. Urinating was a nightmare, and I eventually had to get a foley placed so I could pee. All the mucosa was eaten off, and it took me like 5 days on diflucan and 3 weeks to fully heal.
The same thing happened a second time when I was on my period a month or so later, but it was more like an allrgic reaction. I took a Diflucan right away, and it kept the infection away, but my eyes and mouth got really swollen.
Now this is the third and worst time. Lots of swelling, lots of Candida, lots of pain, little response to the Diflucan. My throat is also sore, and I’m short of breath. This…kinda blows.
It is third time I have vaginal candida in 3 months. And I also had it on my tongue. I have been to gyn and dermatologist, and got medications for it. Beside this I keep anti-candida diet, I take probiotics, basica (which is a product we have for making ur body more basic), aloe-vera, I drink clay for internal usage, and grapefruit seed essence, eat large quantities of pro biotic yogurt. And with all this it still returns!
I suspect that I have systematic candida.
I was exposed to extremely lot of stress which ended with sleeping disorder and anxiety. It lasted form August last year till beginning of March, when I took payment free leave, and am recovering and feeling much better now, sleep well, do yoga, eat healthy etc.
Still my candida returns, so I suspect my immune system is super weak. my recent blood test shower higher cholesterol and my alcalic phosphates is lower than normal.
Can you please recommend me understand how can I regain my health!

It lasted form August last year till beginning of March, when I took payment free leave, and am recovering and feeling much better now, sleep well, do yoga, eat healthy (I am about 90% vegetarian, hardly eat eggs, sometimes cheese, lost of yogurt, and very rarely chicken or turkey meat).
Still my candida returns, so I suspect my immune system is super weak. my recent blood test showed higher cholesterol and my alcalic phosphates is lower than normal. I really do not know what to do about cholesterol, since I live healthy, eat healthy..and am off the stress now. And I am, I think still young being a 35 years old woman.
Can you please recommend me understand how can I regain my health! And what does this lower alcallic phosphates in my blood test mean exactly?

I am a vegetarian, and I am supposed to have meat for the Candida diet. I’m obviously not going to eat meat. I am not supposed to have any sugar at ALL, in order to kill the yeast overgrowth. What can I replace the meat with for protein? I am eating a lot of beans and brown rice. I don’t know if beans or brown rice will turn into sugar. Any help would be great, especially if you know about intestinal yeast overgrowth (Candida) diet.
Are bean carbs, and do they turn into sugar in the body?

Hey,
My GF’s Nan died suddenly around 6 years ago of lung cancer, shortly after this she started getting these symptoms; Spacyness, tiredness, pressure around the eyes, drunken feeling, exhaustion, sensitive to light etc…
She read up on something called a Candida Overgrowth and realised she had many of the symptoms that a Candida sufferer has. She was tested in a clinic on two occasions and the results were positive so she eventually started the Candida diet on an extreme level for around three months, yet, there was no change. She then consulted her doctor who put everything down to Anxiety/depression, now she is undertaking psychiatric help to overcome this "possible" mental illness.
Its worth stating that my GF also has an eating disorder and occasionally binge eats (she is getting mental help for this)!
1, why don’t DRs believe in the Candida overgrowth (even gastro surgeons)?
2, Is it possible that my GF does have anxiety issues and its not Candida related?
Many Thanks
My doctor seems to think that I may have a male yeast infection, due to months of antibiotics I had taken.
My symptoms have been itching/redness in the testicles and itch in the anus. It has been going on for months and he has me on the candida diet. it seems to be working to a point, but has not subsided.
I would like to know of any males out there have had this condition and could shed some light on the subject.
your help would be greatly appreciated.
