Dietary Suppression of Candida Albicans (Yeast)
 See
our full line of Nutritional Supplements
Candidiasis almost never appears as the cause on a death certificate but it
should! You do have the power to reclaim your mind, your immune system, your
predestined body shape, your vision, and your health.
Do you experience constant fatigue and "foggy" thinking? Do you crave
sugar, have a bloated abdomen or abdominal pain, feel like you're dragging
all the time, have a white film inside your mouth or have itchy rashes?
Have your doctors told you nothing is wrong with you when you know that
something is seriously wrong? Do your symptoms get worse after you eat
sweet or carbohydrate rich foods? You can win over the horrible symptoms
of fibromyalgia, oral
and genital thrush, depression, anxiety, recurring irritability,
heartburn, indigestion, lethargy, extreme food and environmental allergies,
acne, dry, flaky, itchy skin, jock itch, migraine headaches, recurring
cystitis/vaginal infections, premenstrual tension, and menstrual problems.
Yes, you need to supplement with Platinum
Plus Amino Acids, Flax/Borage oils, multi vitamins as
recommended. Supplements are not enough! Remember - It is not only
the yeast that you may be battling, but much more sinister agents such
as Hepatitis C, Epstein Barr, Herpes, etc.
Candida Albicans produces 79 toxins, which can stop glandular functions such
as thyroid, pancreas, kidneys, and your mental processes. The yeast can suppress
your immune system so on top of all the Amino Acids, Vitamins, Oils, and other
supplements you take, you must take away nourishment from this most subtle of
enemies.
MEVY diet
Many of you are carbohydrate addicts. Don?t be afraid to eat to satisfaction,
because you are going to have to change your estimates of food - your starch
fillers are gone!
1. The yeast grows on sugar and starch and it is fed by gluten-containing
grains. Gluten includes wheat, oats, rye and barley. Do not eat sugar or sweets.
This includes natural sweets and juices such as apple, orange, grape and juices,
which are highly concentrated in sugar. No alcohol. Most canned products
including soups have sugar added, so cook from scratch.
2. Forbidden ? breads, pastries, beer, wine, alcohol, potato chips,
popcorn, vinegar and foods containing it, green olives, commercial salad
dressings, soy sauce, cider, sodas and nuts. All rice products are out.
3. In the strictest part of yeast removal you should follow the MEVY diet
until the yeast readings are much improved.
M for meats: all meats - beef, chicken, fish, turkey, seafood (all),
bacon, snails, frog?s legs, venison, duck, ham.
E is for eggs: eat lots of them, and don?t worry, your cholesterol will
go way down.
V is for vegetables: all except for carrots, corn, potatoes, and beets.
No beans except for string beans. All spices are OK
Y is for plain yogurt: plain or flavored with vanilla, not fruit. Kefir
is OK. Cheese is not.
4. No cheese, milk, butter or cream are allowed.
5. No teas including herbal teas. Bancha tea is OK. A cup of decaf coffee is
permitted. Drink plenty of water, preferably structured water, with optional
fresh lemon or lime. Do not avoid salt, it is necessary for many functions
including digestion.
6. Yeasts, molds, and fungi cross react. When taken in food or even breathed
they can trigger symptoms and diminish the resistance to Candida. So no
mushrooms.
7. Make your own salad dressing, lemon juice, garlic, and either olive, flax,
canola or sunflower oil.
8. Use Stevia as a sugar substitute.
9. Saut? cabbage and use in place of pasta or rice.
Check your weight often. You will find that it comes off fast as your reward
for doing a hard thing.
Here is a summary of the points:
- Avoid sugar in all forms, including
candy, cake, cookies, corn syrup, white flour, white rice, honey and excessive
intake of fruits.
- Don't eat fruit with brown spots - they may indicate spoilage.
- Avoid foods to
which you may be sensitive or allergic. Frequently these include wheat, dairy,
cheese, mushrooms, bread, coffee, tea, processed foods, soy sauce, vinegar,
wine, beer and dried fruits. Each individual's tolerance levels vary.
- Experiment to determine which foods and food groups cause problems for you and
which you can safely eat. Muscle test, if you can, or use the classic food allergy
strategy: Identify, avoid, reincorporate, monitor.
- Increase legumes and vegetables in your diet, including lentils, mung beans,
green veggies, carrots, sprouts and beet tops, all of which are low on the glycemic
index. The glycemic index is a measurement that ranks foods based on their immediate
effect on blood sugar levels.
- Add more chlorophyll, from greens, superfood blends, alfalfa.
- Add yogurt or kefir with active acidophilus cultures to help bring the
balance of flora back to normal.
- Avoid taking antibiotics, birth control pills and steroids. These can
help create an environment in your body that allows overgrowth of yeasts.
