Diet For Candida Overgrowth - What Foods to Eat on a Candida Diet

Are you on a strict diet for candida overgrowth or infection? If so then today I'll discuss what types of foods you should be eating on the diet and what you should be avoiding entirely. First though I'll focus on what's important and that's what you will be eating on a regular basis while on the diet program.

-Ok Foods-

1. Vegetables of all kinda are welcome, however the starchy vegetables such as potatoes must be avoided as they'll actually increase the growth of candida in the body. Always try to eat organic, since your body will already be run down from the candida overgrowth, the additional pesticides sprayed on normal vegetables are not ideal. However some vegetables are better than none if organic isn't an option, always keep that in mind.

Eat your vegetables live and un-cooked whenever possible. Buy a juicer if you haven't already, the quickest cure for candida is just juicing vegetables every day while eating garlic as well. Raw is always better.

2. Lean meats such as wild fish, organic chicken and organic turkey are acceptable. Red meat such as organic beef should only be consumed moderately later on in the diet if necessary. Meats of all kinds while on the diet should be consumed no more than 3-4 times per week. The focus is on vegetables for the most part. Early on in the diet fats are also best avoided, so for this reason meat should be avoided entirely or minimized during this time.

3. Grains such as quinoa, buckwheat, amaranth, millet are all ok in serving sizes no more than 2-3 per day. Then there is brown rice, rye, oats and sprouted wheat which all fall under a moderate to avoid category depending on how far along in the program you are. Remember these are all starchy foods so you can't depend on these foods to be your base.

4. Fruits such as green apples, grapefruit, lemons and limes are ok in small amounts. Later on in the diet they can be consumed with more regularity. But for now in the early stages they should be kept to a minimum.

There you have it, the basic foods you should be focused on eating while on a diet for candida overgrowth. Always remember, that if the food is overly starchy or sugary than it's no good.
