A Couple Questions...

[Guest guest]

Hi Bee,

I just had a few questions about the diet. First of all, food is a

very social thing- we encounter it in various social functions

everyday, and sometimes, it is difficult, and sometimes rude - to

refuse food that is offered to you or that is expected of you to take

part in. For instance, this weekend is my birthday and my friends are

throwing me a tea party with scones and cutecumber sandwiches, etc.

They also want to take me out on the town for a drink. They know I

try to eat healthy but for the most part wouldn't understand why I

can't enjoy my favorite foods on my special day. If I do cheat on my

birthday, what is the best wayto go about it to minimize the damage?

Secondly, I noticed coffee and caffenine aren't allow on the diet. I

was curious as to what this does to make candida worse? Lastly, why

are tomatoes allowed on the diet if they are a fruit and are very

sweet in nature?

Thanks for your help!
