Candida diet sweetener- Raw unfiltered honey and more

A candida cleanse works to kill off the candida in your system, while at the same time reintroducing good bacteria so that the good bacteria takes over and keep the bad bacteria and yeast in check, ultimately having an amazingly healthful effect on your body and your skin. The most important and agreed upon part of a candida cleanse is that you must stop consuming any sugar for a temporary period of time – even natural sugar like fruit or honey. Candida and bad bacteria love to feast on sugar, so eliminating it helps you to cut off their food source.

 But if you find a sweetener that also helps combat candida, that is worth exploring...

 1. Raw unfiltered honey

 Raw honey is known to have medicinal purposes in many different areas. It has antiseptic, and antioxidant properties that are great for cleansing, beauty and skin care products, it can be used to treat various ailments. The honey called UMF Manuka honey has been found to not only fight infection and help in healing but also reduces swelling and scarring and helps with digestive issues. Honey has been used for thousands of years as a natural healing agent. Over twenty years of research at Waikato University in New Zealand has shown that this special honey naturally destroys bacteria including staphaureus, streptococcus (even antibiotic resistant MRSA, Golden Staph), as well as h. pylori (helicobacter pylori), the bacteria typically associated to stomach ulcers.

 Consider using honey if you are thinking about going on an anti-candida diet. There are two main opinions about this for you to consider. On one side there is the diet that involves cutting out yeasty foods, and sugary foods including honey, as the fungus feeds on sugar and that can lead to or help an overgrowth. However there is a different opinion that says only refined sugars need to be eliminated, such as white carbohydrates, sodas, and so on, and in this diet raw honey in moderate amounts is acceptable. The fact that organic honey has been found to have probiotic and antibiotic properties makes it a food that will fight the candida albicans in you body rather than help them grow. You could of course go for a middle road, where all sugar is eliminated and then something like honey is slowly re-introduced to help with replacing the beneficial bacteria.

Some ideas:  Mix honey with raw organic apple cider vinegar and warm water, for a drink to be taken once a day.

 Sweeten your own plain yogurt and add fresh fruit, another way to get the benefits of those helpful bacteria in the honey, into you, is to eat more of it each day. Great for treating any internal overgrowth.

 2. Stevia

 Here are some of the benefits of stevia: · It has a long history of safe use as an herbal sweetener, and as an antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibiotic agent. · It helps balance the pancreas, which is quite often compromised in people with candida. · It is recommended for diabetics and for people with hypoglycemia. · It regulates the digestive tract and greatly increases energy. Stevia is wonderful in teas, our fermented drinks and as a sweetener in quinoa flakes cooked into a cereal for breakfast. It is especially delicious with the flavor of fruit and with dairy foods. However, it is not as versatile for baking. Stevia comes in a powder form and as a liquid in different concentrations. Getting just the right amount of sweetness can be tricky.

Xylitol does not feed candida and has these benefits: It has been clinically proven to fight dental cavities, and to facilitate the remineralization of dental enamel.

What is Candida?

Candida is a controversial term because most of the medical professionals deny its existence making it very difficult to get a medical diagnosis of Candida. But many of Western Medical Doctors/ Naturopaths are beginning to recognize it. So, if you feel this can be a part of your case history, find a doctor who best represents your needs.

Candida is the popular term for Candidiasis (yeast overgrowth) - a condition first identified by American physicians in the 1970s. Moderate amounts of Candida (and other yeast) live in every one of us without causing any harm, but when given free rein to grow (when intestinal bacteria is killed by antibiotics, drugs, NSAID’s, alcohol and other items listed below) it leaves an opportunity for invaders to recolonize the intestines. Once Candida mutates, it begins to break down the intestinal lining and eventually breaks through the intestinal wall. Once through the intestinal wall it now moves through the bloodstream and anywhere blood travels (organs, tissues, joints, bones etc.)

Contributory factors to Candida over Growth:
 use of the contraceptive pill or HRT
· use of natural progesterone cream
· use of other steroids (hydrocortisone, prednisolone etc.)
· use of immune-suppressive drugs
· repeated use of broad-spectrum antibiotics e.g. for acne
· dental mercury amalgam poisoning
· other heavy metal poisoning e.g. lead, cadmium
· chemical poisoning from the home, garden, workplace etc.
· hormonal changes e.g. puberty, pregnancy, menopause and Stress

 1. FatBurner - helps you eat less sugar and contains chromium, cinnamon, green tea Many people with Type I and Type II diabetes are deficient in chromium. In cases of low levels of chromium, supplementing with extra chromium could make a difference in balancing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon: This spice is a powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal and anti-microbial agent. In laboratory tests, growth of yeasts that were resistant to the commonly used anti-fungal medication fluconazole was often stopped by cinnamon extracts.

 2. Octocleanse is an herbal yeast and parasite detox. It contains natural herbs including some that help with yeast: Pau D' Arco, garlic, and grapefruit combat yeast while the other ingredients in this formula get to work on viruses, parasites and bacteria. Caprylic acid kills yeast in one phase of it's growth,  Other ingredients and their actions include:

 3. Dr. Comeaux's COQ10 with Omega 3 Dietary Supplement, 60 softgels Consuming fish oil capsules can also contribute to the detoxification process because they contain natural triglyceride lipids that facilitate expelling of toxins with the bowel movement. CoQ10 may help with energy while you are giving up sugar.

The HCG diet cookbook- in the book I wrote, all recipes will be allowed
The Paleo Diet- no processed sugar is allowed, so all recipes allowed

Candida Diet Cookbook

The Blood Type Diet by Dr Peter D‘Adamo is outlined is his book Eat Right For Your Type. I feel it can be of supreme guidance in selecting foods that harmonize with you and avoiding foods that potentially have a deleterious effect on your blood and hence, immune system. Make sure you only choose foods that are compatible with the yeast free diet.
