The offending foods make your immune system work to get rid of them. That's what the sinus reaction is - an immune reaction - your body is secreting mucous to carry away the problem item. Our immune systems are really stressed - more so, apparently, than most people. Cease intake of the offending foods and you relieve your immune system of one more fight - you get rid of that battle front. That frees your immune system to carry on it's work in other areas with more of its resources (like more soldiers to fight the mycoplasmas). One more note, if you eat something that leaves an inappropriate sour taste in your mouth, that's an offending food for you too. -- Regards, Geoff Crenshaw, ACC ---------------------- Managing Partner ** No Disclaimers ** Captain Cook's Cruise Center ---------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Over 3,000 daily cruise & tour specials > Top 5% of Web Sites http://www.800-800-cruise.com [specials] > Top 100 Travel Sites .. > Top Web Sites for Cruise tips New Zealanders http://www.800-800-cruise.com [tips] USA PH: 800-800-CRUIse PH: 559-636-8413 FAX: 559-734-1420 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- geoff@...

Guest guest Posted July 9, 1999 Report Share Posted July 9, 1999 , When I was most sick, I craved fresh vegetables and couldn't get enough salad. I also seemed to need strong, acidic flavors, like vinagery Italian dressings and lots of tabasco sauce in V-8 juice (a no-no since it's loaded with salt.) I've always suspected that our bodies crave the foods we need. I used to have an almost insatiable craving for liver and onions, for example. I must have needed whatever liver supplies to the body. Right now I have nearly no taste for sweets but I do want intensely flavored foods and especially salty foods like nuts and popcorn. This is not good since they aggravate edema, but at the same time, I'm taking tons of diuretics and no potassium. I suspect that my body is craving the potassium I'm losing because of the diuretics. Don't know if there's any validity to any of this. Geri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we to assume that we can then eat them in moderation? ********** Thats has been my exact experience also. Especially with nuts. The books says to avoid nuts because the amount of mold it contains. I never had a problem with nuts so I eat them like crazy. It really helps you if you need something crunchy. However I wonder if staying away from the mold in nuts is for people who have a mold allergy. Or does it depend on what your candida likes to feast on?

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2001 Report Share Posted April 1, 2001 oh boy - you hit the'nail on the head' with me too. There is ONE time of the month that I have discovered that I CANNOT eat the things I can eat the REST of the month. I KNOW it is tied in with myhormones...and this is my latest detective work... that seemingly could take the rest of my life to figure out (plus i'm getting to pre-menopause time) ... <sigh> wendy Re: foods Hi Peanuts are not part of the nut family. They are actually a legume. This may be why you can eat peanuts. I feel yuck today. Wonder if yesterdays foods make you feel yuck the next day? I actually think it is tied in with ovulation. I seem to remember last month around thistime I ached just before I ovulated. AAHhh, that process of elimination is a pain. I know for sure now to avoid dairy, except butter, which seems o.k. It seems to be the milky things, like milk, cream, cheese. Never noticed cream before to be a problem. Some things are becoming a noticeable problem, others seem not to be. It's quite a job to work out which is which, but I am truly beginning to believe that our bodies know what they need/are o.k. with, and what they are not. I will listen to the wisdom of my inner being <grin>.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2002 Report Share Posted February 3, 2002 I'm new to Candida and trying to ease into a new diet - not easy for a " meat and potato " guy! Heavy reaction recently demands a change in diet but I don t want a complete system shock I know that each person varies but any experience with the following foods: chicken, canned brown beans, tuna, beef, and turkey. Are pastas a no-no? Is all rice taboo? What kind of salad dressings can be used? Are there any websites, or sources, of recipes for Candida related foods? Any help appreciated.

(please, no twinkies)I know that apples and apple >juice seem to make me feel better. Mickey, it's interesting that you should mention apples, because the French have used apple peels in a tea as a treatment for rheumatism for centuries. I've been eating a whole (organic) apple a day with my breakfast, and it's great. There's many other foods that can help ease arthritis. Ginger and garlic are two 'superfoods' that work really well. Onions, too. A friend tells me of a woman with arthritis who cut up a clove of garlic into three or four pieces and swallowed them whole like pills. I'm going to give this a try and see how much it affects my breath :-) Garlic is such a powerful food that it can be thought of as medicine, without toxic side effects. Other herbs/plants include rosemary and turmeric. Dandelion root & leaves are also good. Oat straw (not rolled oats, but the straw) is good as a tea. And as always, cold water fish high omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A and D and can have a significant improvement on arthritis. What has worked very well for me is 2 cups of lightly steamed vegetables twice a day: cauliflower (very high in vitamin K) + red cabbage (anti-inflammatory) + broccoli (anti-oxidant) + asparagus (high in Vitamin E, an anti-inflammatory) + carrots (rich in Vitamins ABC). I make big batch ahead of time, cool it and eat it with a bit of salad dressing as a cold salad. I also have herbal infusions twice a day from my own concoction of dried herbs. If you're interested in learning more, I *highly* recommend the book " The Juicing Bible " by Pat Crocker & Eagles. This goes into great detail about the medicinal properties of herbs, vegetables and fruits. My copy is becoming dog-eared from so much use. It's an amazing book and has made a big difference in my quality of life. Elfstrom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 6, 2003 Report Share Posted July 6, 2003 , I also make a lot of fresh food ahead of time. Preparation is painful and time consuming, and I know I won't do it three times a day. I make 2 gallons of salad at a time and keep it in the refrigerator. Between my DH and me, we go through 2 gallons in 3 days. I buy 2 bags of different kinds of lettuce mixes, chop up a cucumber, a bunch of green onions, a half of a small purple onion, and grate about 4 carrots. He adds his own cherry tomatos, which I stay away from. We eat big handfuls of this mixture with every meal. I also steam lots of vegies at a time and keep them in the fridge - eat them cold with a little rice vinegar and olive oil. This is the only way I can make sure I have stuff on hand ready to go when I don't have the energy or will to do the work. claire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have given a lot of dietary advice and I can't think of a single statement you have made about nutrition that I would disagree with. I try to study the big picture and have delved into nutrition and what benefits certain foods can have but apparently you are at least 3 steps ahead of me. Ever considered writing a book? Or maybe at least something for the files section of the group? hint hint Orin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe at least something for the files section of the group? >hint Orin Very insightful! Yes, I've been considering writing a book for a while now. I've even registered a domain name specifically for the purposes of creating an illustrated online book that will be free to all, covering primarily nutrition, but also exercise and mind-body medicine. In a way it's a story in progress because I keep learning more every day. Since January, every email I write on this topic, every related website and every article that I come across gets filed electronically for future use. My greatest hurdle at this point is structuring the info I have into a cohesive body of work. I don't want it to be dry or an overly scientific reference; but on the other hand I don't want it to be filled with testimonials either. Some brainstorming is in order. I may take a week off work during this summer to make a good stab at the big picture and later fill in the holes. Orin, you could be of great assistance in being a scientific editor, to keep things in check :-) Was it you who was also a technical writer, or am I thinking of someone else on the list? E.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2003 Report Share Posted July 7, 2003 No I've never been employed as a writer. Most of my writing consists of message boards, post-it notes stuck all over the place and bathroom walls. I know what you mean about trying to assemble all your notes into something complete but concise. I just checked and my medicine folder is 8MB, mostly text. There is probably that much again in photocopied studies so to tie that all together in a way that the average person could read and understand, and hopefully agree with, might be a monstrous undertaking. I'm probably over-commited at the moment as it is but if I can be of assistance I will try. You are welcome to peruse my notes. I have a long detailed text on fatty acids that I peiced together from many sources that you might find particularly interesting. Thanks for all your efforts . Some psoriatic will find the kingpin one day. Orin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will send you the first copy. Right now I've gotta focus on making a way to pay some bills. Orin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Hi Bit behind on my email reading at the moment, but will reply to this one anyway! I haven't done any technical writing but if you want any help I've got some free time at the moment. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Yes, , I'm sure your book would be very popular among all of us ' " groupies " . I have done some technical writing; nothing as extensive as your book. I agree that the hardest part is deciding on an organization and then sorting through your material and putting into the categories you've chosen.
