Guest guest Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Can someone help me understand why Winter Squash is allowed on SCD with candida? I read that fruit should be eliminated in the beginning but haven't read that about the squash. I can't find info whether it's considered a monosacharide or diasacharide etc...How do we know the winter squash isn't feeding the candida too? It's high in sugar and starch, right? I developed cracked lips and severe cracks on the corner of my mouth after 1 month on the SCD. I'm 34 and have never had this happen even while on traditional Anti-candida diets that allow brown rice. So, is this a sign of yeast overgrowth after eating squash or a good yeast die-off sign?

Please check out my diet which has helped many people and which is very different than any other candida diet. Please read the article send to you when you joined " How to Successfully Overcome Candida " and then you will understand why it is different. You can also find the article in our Files (left menu) on the Group's Website; it is in the 1st folder. The best in health, Bee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
