Candida Yeast Diet

Once you're well, candida overgrowth can come back even more virulently if you go back to old habits of eating poorly. It is important for those of you with stubborn, chronic conditions, such as autoimmune diseases or cancer, to take at least a reduced dose of an herbal antifungal compound every day for the rest of your life. You will also need to increase your dosage during stressful periods, such as when traveling and during holidays.
 
For those of you who are not challenged with these conditions but feel that unhealthy lifestyle habits and high stress might creep back in, it's a good idea to take ongoing maintenance doses of Candida abX (one pill two times a day), pau d'arco (one cup of tea or one dropperful of tincture twice daily), or Primal Defense Ultra (one pill two times a day). Rotate these products every couple of months to make sure you don't become immune to any one of them. For those who are able to maintain a healthy diet, I suggest replacing your antifungal with a probiotic and taking that for the rest of your life to keep your digestive system and yeast levels in balance. 

Candida Yeast Diet

Even after you reach the end of the 90-day program, you need to be moderate with your diet. Avoid indulging in foods that contain sugar, dairy, yeast, and refined carbohydrates. You can keep your diet clean by eating the foods on the "Foods to Eat to Maintain Health' list at least 80 percent of the time and eating the foods on the "Foods to Eat Infrequently or Not at All" list only 20 percent of the time or less. One way to achieve this is to stick to the lists and eat healthily from Mondays through Fridays and then enjoy a little of the "no-no" foods on the weekends.
 

You will now be adding foods back into your diet that you haven't eaten during the 90-day protocol. If you notice intolerances and reactions after eating these foods, such as a rapid pulse (90 to 180 beats per minute), fatigue, itching internally or externally, hives, gas, bloating, headaches, or other symptoms, eliminate those foods. This is a clear sign your body does not want them in your system.
 

Continue to drink red clover tea each week, as it clears environmental toxins and removes stress hormones from the bloodstream. You can reduce your intake of red clover to two cups per day and drink four cups when you are under stress and your diet is poor.
 

Digestive enzymes are good to take during times of travel, high stress, eating poorly, and going to bed on a full stomach.
