The more you use this other foods, the more you will get used to it and the

better you will feel. I had Klamatha olives today. I have always hated them, but

over the course of 4-6 months I tried 1-2 ,grimacing as I ate them. I haven't

tried in a montha and today at lunch ,I enjoyed them, I thought the saltness and

the vinegariness tasted fine! I have hated vinegar since childhood. I know it is

becuase I am slowly detoxing and my organs are getting healthy.

Hi,

It is pj and I wanted to let you know I have been around and have

benifitted from your info. However with a baby I don't have much

time for the computer. I purchased the coconut oil I used some

instead of pam cooking spray. It is ok. I need to remind myself why

it is good for me. I have been reading the side bar articles. I

purchased a brush for the body brushing. I love it. thanks for all

your info.

L & P,

hi cindy and all~

its true, it might take some getting used to, but the candida diet is

full of wonderful -delicious -satisfying foods!

however - kalamata olives (or any vinegary olives) are not

recommended on the candida diet.

some people may be able to tolerate them, especially as they get

healthier, like cindy (congrats on the great progress!). but for a

truly candida-diet-friendly meal, especially in the beginning phases,

the only olives to consume are oil cured olives. they have only olive

oil & salt added, and they look like little prunes! sometimes they

are labeled greek olives, you'll know them by their look, they are

packaged in glass jars. they're a very concentrated food, very strong

in flavor, but delicious!!

happy healing ~ suz

I'm new to all this, looking for info.....I'm an acute asthmatic and my research

is pointing towards candida.

I have questions..

any links you all can send me?

can you use Bragg's liquid aminos on the cadida diet?

what about kombucha?

What about RAW milk? and RAW cheese, like Chevr?

why can't you use vinegar? what about balsamic?

what are the BEST books out there about the diet and cookbooks?

what about Stevia?

I guess I owe this group an apoligy for not staying in the guidelines of

recommended foods.

I wasn't recommending eating olives.

My point is that the more my body clenses it self of Candida, my tastes have

changes to accomendate eating foods that are less sweet, more sour,astringent

and bitter.

I only wanted and indulged in the salt and sweet taste. Continuing eating small

amounts of sour,astringent and bitter tasting foods is healing.

I wonder if anyone who has developed candida diets has gone back and considered

naturally fermented and natural lacto-fermented foods when making their

recommendations. In my personal experience it is what is healing me faster than

any supplements .I personally adhere to the WAPF diet,

Sincerely

thanks for clarifying that, and seriously, congrats on the healing,

and the strength it takes to do it! how are you liking your sour,

astringent & bitter foods?

i definitely agree with you about the naturally fermented / lacto

fermented foods. they have become an integral part of my diet, and

were very helpful and invigorating when i was on the strict candida

protocol. now i always have my crock of cabbage on the kitchen

counter! and more in the fridge ready to eat!

have you noticed in the files section, bee's recipe for making lacto

femented cabbage rejuvelac?

i know that in the body ecology diet (b.e.d.) system, developed by

donna gates, which is designed to help people overcome candida, lacto

fermented vegetables and raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar are a

mainstay in the daily diet. her explanation is that " [they] allow the

lacto-bacilli that fight yeast and other unhealthy flora to

proliferate... these cultured foods will be an important factor in

recolonising your inner ecological world. "

there are parts of the b.e.d. diet with which i don't agree, but she

definitely knows her lacto-ferments!

i am a recent student of WAPF (since early may), and i have found it

to be very very good for me.

glad you're here cindy!

Hi Viva,

Welcome to our group. I'm glad Suz gave you such a good welcome

earlier.

As Suz said we have a lot of files and recipes posted (left side-

bar). But also there are a number of Links posted too.

Check out www.mercola.com for more specific information on asthma. I

don't agree with everything Dr. Mercola writes but overall his

information is good. Use search to get more specific articles on any

subject.

The best website for information on healthy food is

www.westonaprice.org. These foods are also in the candida diet I

recommend, i.e. " good " animal meats & fats (butter, coconut oil,

etc.).

I believe there are natural cures of asthma, and you will be well on

your way with the candida diet. Saturated fats are very important

for the lungs - I believe there is an article about this in the

Links. If not, I can certainly post it.

The best to you in your quest for total health. Please keep us

posted on how your are doing.

Cheers,

Bee
