Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I've read coffee kills probiotics and somehow helps candida grow, how bad is one cup a day and should probiotics be taken very far apart from that morning cup a joe? Is decaf better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 the only coffee we can have goes in the tail end, lol. Actually, I think an occasional cup of swiss water process decaff is OK- some disagree though which is why I only have it on a rare occasion. Its hard- I know! I still make my husband's coffee in the morning and the smell drives me nuts some days! I find that when I really have a craving, a cup of roasted dandelion tea works well (with a touch of stevia)- really! -Sara From: Lori <solsbryhil@...> Subject: Question about coffee candidiasis Date: Friday, April 10, 2009, 11:06 AM hey Duncan, Sorry, I meant to include this question in my previous post as well. This question is for you and for the members - anyone who can chime in. What's your take on coffee and candida/dysbiosis? I've read both sides of the argument..good for you vs bad for you. I don't really struggle with the strict low carb diet but I *really* struggle to give up my morning cup of coffee. I haven't noticed any difference when I give it up vs when I don't but not sure if daily coffee will make replinishing my good flora any harder in the long run. Thoughts?

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 Lori, my take is that coffee has no direct influence on the infection, as long as you leave out the sugar. As you know, coffee has opponents, but they have not cited bacterial or candida growth as one of the direct issues. You can take inulin in it to feed probiotics.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Yeah, inulin is a boiled product so has already been exposed to that temperature. If you bake or nuke inulin, the higher temp breaks sugars " loose " a bit and make it sweeter.
