Re: staying on the diet --- Doris

[Guest guest]

Doris, your distress over keeping on the diet is very typical and a

struggle that many individuals combating candida experience, so do not

feel alone!

It becomes a matter of discipline and how much of a priority it is to

you to regain your health. Some of us are devestated by candida to

such a degree that our daily lives are drastically impacted. This

provides motivation to adhere closely to the program.

Additionally, it is a good idea to transition slowly into the program

and diet over a period of time. Don't be too hard on yourself and

start by eliminating certain foods that are detrimental to health and

feed candida on a gradual basis. Don't try to stick to it all at once,

it usually results in break-downs like you have been experiencing.

I hope this helps you in some way.
