Hi, I'm Cortnie. and I've been having candida problems off and on for

nearly a year (our anniversary will be this January).

I don't really have the money to see a doctor, so its been a struggle.

I'd visited a free clinic every couple months until September when I

finally found a naturalistic clinic that I could afford, and that was

my first experience with the anti-candida diet. I had eliminated sugar

and alcohol until then, but no one had told me about the carbohydrate

aspect, and after a month of the diet there is no improvement.

Different sources online have confused me about what is and is not

acceptable to eat. What are some opinions on the following?: nuts,

coconut milk, grapefruit/cranberries, brown rice, oats, dairy. Some

sites indicate that these contain too much sugar, others recommend them.

I have also heard that some people can have candida related reactions

to condoms (due to a latex allergy), or an allergen in lubricant. As

far as I know I'm not allergic, but does anyone know anything about this?

So confused. Thank you
