Food that taste good when you have thrush?




So, My dad has thrush, for he second time. Basically a yeast infection in your mouth. As far as I know, he is in no pain, but every food tastes funky, except for applesauce and orange juice (these two food tasted normal the first time he had thrush as well). Now, applesauce and orange juice are not a very appealing diet. SO my question is, do you know of any food that taste normal while you have thrush?

Yeast Infections!!??!??!?




I have had a never ending yeast infection for almost a year now. I am so sensitive down there that it has gotten to the point where I cant do anything that I used to anymore. Getting graphic…30 seconds into wearing a tampon I feel the yeast infection starting, everytime before I get my period I feel it coming on again, whenever I wear a thong, if I eat anything sweet. No matter how many vitamins I take, all the yeast creams in the world, the best diet I’m on, nothing seems to work!!!! I can not live like this anymore, it cant be normal to get it this much! I have gone to doctors and they just give me pills to treat yeast (that barely work). And I can NEVER even attempt to have sex because that gives me extreme yeast infections. My older sister has been suffering from this for about 4 years now, and I just started a year ago.. but no one in our family has ever had it. Whats wrong with us?? Is it genetic?? or something in our body producing way too much yeast? I am desperate, help!

My six month old cat recently developed a urinary tract infection and we brought him to the vet and he is now on a special medicine and diet. Ever since then, though, he has been peeing everywhere (on clothes, beds, even in our bath tub) as if he was never litter box trained! Does anyone know why this is or what we should do?

Hi there,

I’ve been on a strict non-dairy diet for years (I’m lactose intolerant). Thus, I’ve been told I should be taking probiotics like acidophilus to replenish my good intestinal bacteria. However, every time I take probiotics after going a long time without any, I feel very bad - I develop a foul smell in my nose, my sinuses swell up a bit, and I generally fill "ill" all over. I don’t think this is a coincidence with something else I’m eating, because when I stop taking the probiotics, these symptoms disappear. Maybe it’s the fact that they are "dairy-based" probiotics and I’m lactose intolerant? Not sure. They are so small, there shouldn’t be that much lactose in them. Maybe my body is getting "used" to the new good bacteria? Is this a temporary adaptation phase?

I’d really like to know if this is a known symptom among people who are going on probiotics after a long period without them. It would be really interesting to know.

Thank you very much

I’m not doing this diet by choice. I have a Candida infection and I’m not allowed to eat any carbs for two months straight. I just want to know what I can expect in the form of weightloss if all I’m eating is eggs, low-fat meats, and veggies.

Thanks in advance.

Is fiber beneficial to people with Candidiasis?




So here’s what I know: Candida albicans can live in the body [I'm particularly interested in learning about candida living in the digestive tract but I know it can live throughout the body]. Candida albicans can cause digestive issues, yeast infections and oral thrush. Candida can be controlled with diet, anti-fungal medications and certain treatments.

Now, what I want to know is exactly what treatments would work in successfully ridding the body of canidida albicans? Also, I have read conflicting advice about fiber and Candida. Is fiber really beneficial to people suffering from Candidiasis?

I would love to hear personal stories on how people have dealt with Candidiasis, so if you have any stories please share.

where do i get a test for yeast overgrowth?




i’ve had suspicions that i might have candidiasis but don’t know where to get tested… i’d rather know for sure before i do the diet
i went to my gyno and they said they didn’t really do it. they do for yeast infections that are vaginal but that’s not really what ‘m referring to.

What is the best Anti-Candida Diet?




I woke up this morning feeling like I got hit by a car. (yes, I’ve been hit by a car before, I know what it feels like.) I discovered in the last few days that I have a male yeast infection, and after extensive research into it, trying to determine what questions I should ask my dr, I stumbled on Candida. I’ve stumbled across multiple websites all over the internets that say, buy my supplement to to rid yourself of Candida. For most people that have a disposable income, (which isn’t many in this recession) the cost of the product isn’t so prohibitive. However, I’m on a fixed income. Fixed income is the governments way of saying that we’re going to pay you less than poverty level income, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
Anyways, all of these sites have a list of Candida overgrowth symptoms, etc, and it would appear that I have all of them as they apply to males. It’s difficult for me to determine if this is just all some fad or hype on the internet, because it seems the best source of information is from those people that want to sell me some obscure fix.
I remember being capable of applying my mind to a problem and being able to work through it to the end of the problem. Over the last 2 years, my mind has become quite a foggy mess, and I find it difficult to remain on task, because I forget what I was thinking about.
As there are many differences as to what the ‘best’ is, I decided to clarify what I think would be good for me as far as best.
I need a diet that is easy to follow, and is affordable on my income. I spend between -0 a month on food. I haven’t done much shopping yet for the month, but I estimate to have around remaining for the month.
I won’t buy any ’special - specific anti candida treatments’. I cannot afford to waste that money, and money back guarantees are frustrating. (odds are I’ll forget anyways.)
Since I’m often erratic in my means and methods, I intend to stock my food stores up with things that aim to be anti-candida, so no matter what I manage to grab to feed myself, will be along the lines of my end goal. (anti - candida snack foods)
I’ve taken the first step toward this goal, and I have resigned to drinking my iced tea without any sugar in it. I read somewhere that I should avoid tea for an anti candida diet. I need to know if this is something I can ignore. I drink just standard tea, orange pekoe, I brew it pretty strong, 10 small bags for about 3-8 hours per 2 quarts of water. I also brew it cold. It’s pretty much my last vice, other than smoking, and when I quit that, my tea will be my last vice.
I’m sorry the detail is lengthy, I hope it is not too redundant. Thank you to all who try to help me with this in advance.
For those of you that desire to SPAM this thread, don’t. I will not tolerate answers that are totally unrelated to my question, answers that promote some silly site where you are trying to make a buck on a referral, I want a direct, informative answer related to my question. If you can’t be bothered to READ the question, and the guidelines for answers, don’t bother answering it.

I need to go on a diet, not to lose weight, but to get over a lot of health symptoms I’ve been having. I went to the doctor to be tested for food allergies, and although nothing came back positive, I don’t tolerate milk or wheat very well. Also, I’ve had a candida infection which makes me think I might have candida albicans overgrowth. After searching for the right type of diet on the web, I’m more confused than ever and have no idea what foods will give me the best health without leaving me starving. I’m in Europe and it’s hard finding a good natural health practitioner. Does anyone have any other ideas?
Ok, let me just emphasize three things again bc I got the feeling my question wasn’t read very carefully:
1. I am not trying to lose weight, period, and in Europe, slim-fast doesn’t exist anyway.
2. I can’t eat wheat or other grains because they upset my stomach, hence the US food pyriamid is out of the picture.
3. I have been searching the web and it just leaves me more confused.
I DON’T WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT! I WANT TO FIND THE RIGHT FOOD FOR MY BODY, NOT NECESSARILY FOR WEIGHT-LOSS!!!

Aside from switching everything that comes in contact to a hypoallergenic product I’m still having symptoms. It’s driving me nuts. I can’t figure out what I am allergic to. Is there a special kind of diet that I could try?

Candida Vegetable and Yogurt diet weight loss?




I have Candida. I was told by many people that they lost all the Candida weight by eating only vegetables and organic plain yogurt with probiotics. Some lost 30 lbs in 3 weeks! It makes sense because the diet is restrictive already. I dont want to eat meat. Nuts are bad because of mold and sugar of any sort is a no no. Plus beans and rice should be eaten minimal.

Anyone out there try this diet, and how much did you lose or others should expect. Im 5′6" and 130-140 lbs. most of it being water retention.
