mung bean question

[Guest guest]

that's a good question. i'd like to know the answer to that as well, because my

doctor told me to eat mung beans while treating for candida, but I thought it

wasn't part of the diet so I skipped it. I'm more interested in just the mung

beans, not necessarily the noodles.

Most traditional candida diets are not as strict about carbs as Bee's

diet is. Some allow whole grains like brown rice, some allow fruits,

some allow beans, and some allow certain combos of these food. This

would explain why your doctor told you that mung bears are ok while

treating candida.

The problem is that any amount of carb can feed candida, so the lower

your carb levels, the less you feed candida. If you have a strong

immune system and good nutirional habits, your body may be able to

fight off a candida overgorwth on a higher carb diet. HOWEVER, most

people, due to modern diets, really are not healthy enough to do that.

So these higher carb candida diets may help allieviate some sysmtoms,

or keep candida from getting worse, but if you truely want to be as

healthy as you can be, you must improve nutrition and watch your carbs

closely (like what Bee's diet recommends) until your body is healthy

enough to keep candida from becoming an issue.
