> Hello everyone,

==>Hello Kerri. Welcome to our group my friend. You've come to the

right place. Here you will learn how to help your body heal itself

by giving it the nutrients it needs to do its job.

> I believe I have Candida from the numerous tests I've done online.

> I also have Crohn's disease which I was diagnosed with 10 years ago

> and have been following the SCD diet for the last 5 years (which is

> why I don't quite understand why I may have Candida).

==>There are a number of things the SCD diet doesn't get right about

nutrients and diet. You will understand after you read my

article " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " .

>I take very good of my health, so the initial diet will not be hard

for me as I already do not eat any Starches, grains or complex

sugars. I have a question regarding broccoli and snow peas... are we

allowed them? I know it said to avoid peas, does that include snow

peas? And there was some confusion about broccoli...

==>Snow peas are mostly the green pods so they are okay to eat.

Broccoli is a wonderful food to eat. It is high in vitamin C and

contains many other important nutrients. In addition it inhibits

candida growth. The best way to eat it is slightly steamed and

smothered in butter with sea salt and pepper, or with some fresh

lemon juice added.

==>also any ideas for breakfast would be appreciated... I had 2

boiled eggs this AM but I am already quite thin and would like to try

and gain some weight... will need more to eat in the AM than that.

==>The best breakfast is to have my raw egg drink, which is in our

Recipe Folder. You need to start out with less saturated fats

(butter and coconut oil) and gradually increase them because they are

antifungal and too much at the beginning can overwhelm your body

causing healing reactions. These fats are so important for healing

the intestines and for strengthening them.

The best in health, Bee
