Nuts have mold, problem for fighting yeast?

[Guest guest]

I have read in several sources that nuts should be avoided on a anti-

yeast diet because of the mold that is always present. Would

boiling or baking the nuts before grinding them into nut butter be a

solution to this problem?

Hi a,

Sorry, I don't know.

What if you went with organic nut butters? Do you think that may make

a difference?

I have blanched almonds in the past when trying to get the skins off

before grinding them. But I don't know if it made any difference on

the mold " front " . They didn't taste any different then the nut flour

I buy locally. But that flour (almond) is from blanched nuts so they

may heat treat it to remove skins. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I soak whole nuts in water and ascorbic acid. This is suppose to get rid of

any mold.
