Re: kombucha and water kefir on candida diet?

[Guest guest]

Anni,

Both my wife and I beat candida without doing that diet. We used acidophilus

supplements, did the galbladder flush, and other things which I don't recall

just off the top of my head. Diet may have played a part as we do not eat the

Standard American Diet (SAD). But even with our non-SAD diet, we had candida

problems until we used lots of acidophilus etc.

If you want more details, I can ask Becky (my wife) who will remember better

than I what was involved.

Anni,

Kombucha is a little iffy for Candida because most people leave a fair

amount of sugar in it. If you only brew 8 to 12 days, there's still a

lot of sugar BUT I brewed it to vinegar stage (at least 3 weeks) then

added a few ounces of that to water kefir and sweetened with stevia.

Anni,

Sorry, hit send too soon. With water kefir, I use less than 1/2 the

called for amount of sugar, then do a 2 to 4 day secondary

fermentation after straining the grains. Dom, the kefir guru, said

that doing it this way leaves less sugar than in one lemon. For

example, 2 cups grains, 12 cups water, usually 1 cup sugar, but I use

a heaping 1/4 cup brown sugar and a tablespoonful of molasses.

Hi

I beat candida following the diet and using Aquaflora - the best place to

get it online is www.vitacost.com. - I lost 45 lbs in 3 months and went on

to lose 70.

I did use reg kefir during the diet.
