“ you don’t have to feel isolated like i felt” girl I felt it🥺 thank you so much..
I’m so sorry, it’s the pits when you’re there. I hope you start feeling better soon. ❤️
same im so grateful for her she made me feel so comfortable!
I have been suffered from candida . Totally white tongue( irritating) , bloating , pain on joint , urinary infection , brain fog , anxiety for about 3-4 years . And later on experience i realize it was candida and then take antifungal , i am feeling well nowadays . Thanks for diet information
Have you been healed
Oh,how is your candida, You have oral candida? And how about antifungal they worked if yes plz tell names or diet if you feel better
@@fatimacollection5821 do you have face book? I can help you with some page that will help you out
which antifungal??
can you please tell🥲🥲
Is Candida gone for you ? Are you still on Candida diet after it’s gone ?
Hey Alison! Thank you SO MUCH for such a lovely, informative video. My mom is 44 years old and struggling with a Candida overgrowth as well. It really hurts me to see her dealing with the same issues you just talked about (especially the extreme fatigue and "brain fog you mentioned). It gives me so much hope to see a woman like you who has experienced these debilitating conditions and is now radiating the confidence and energy that you do. Obviously your diet and supplement strategies have p-a-i-d off; you not only look beautiful, but I can just sense you really feel beautiful on the inside and that is so inspirational to see. :heart_eyes: Especially for my mom who often confides in me about not feeling attractive or beautiful anymore she would be thrilled to see it's possible to overcome that. Lol she may not be able to become someone who, frankly, oozes sensuality and alluring beauty like you, but I am sure it will give her hope! Thanks again and please keep uploading videors, you're amazing attitude and energy is exhilirating to watch, even for a young man like me without the same experience as you and my mom! I am sure she too will become an instant fan ❤ Keep up the inspiration!
Thank you for your kind words. I wish your Mom health and wellness 💖
Yes, Vegan too. Menopause and sometimes I don’t know where it all comes from
Thank you for sharing 💖 The Candida overgrowth isolation feeling has been so real.😢
I know, I’m so sorry you’re going through it. But it will get easier and you’ll get through it ♥️
@@NaturalTastyChef Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏼🤍
I’m on a 6 month dose of antibiotics for the second time for infections! Someone at work mentioned the Candida diet and I cannot believe this has never been mentioned to me before… I’ve had countless trips to doctors etc and I’m a nurse myself and never considered my diet. You’ve given me hope, thank you ❤
It’s amazing what diet can do! I wish you great health and wellness ❤️
Isn’t that crazy how allopathic medicine never addresses this. Unless you have thrush or vaginal yeast infection. I had a really bad case of gut candida in the 1980’s I was so sick from it. I felt like I was 80 vs 20. I developed allergies to everything. I found a MD allergist who happened to be considered a maverick in medicine and he dx me with candida. It took about 18 months for me to fully turn my health around with diet and supplementation. Dr. Wakeman was a godsend. And, people would make fun of him saying he was a quack. He was anything but and truly helped so many when mainstream medicine acted like it made up. Best wishes in your journey healing.
Who would've thought, what we eat affects our health!
antibiotics are what got you in this mess or made it worse never take them they kill all the good bacteria
Add some Tahebo tea
Wow 2-3 days reading a book thats actually amazing
I suffered from 1 year. Just stop salt, sugar, non veg and oil for 2 weeks and did intermittent fasting.depended more on raw food and leafy vegetables. Candida growth stopped and reversed in 2 days itself.
Yours wasn’t systemic then. But good for you.
Salt ????????? 😢
Hi.. could you elaborate more
they might mean table salt. Sea salt is actually quite beneficial to the body.
@@3ain3osha6Salt in fast food and highly processed food is ridiculously high and not conducive to healing disease. So yes, avoid salty or high salt foods. A bit of seasoning in home cooked meals is not the enemy.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for sharing! And 38, natural birth and breast feeding! Yes, giving us hope for all of us!
I am very honored to read your lines, it is immediately clear that you are one of those people with a pure and good soul... thank you very much for everything
I have been doing a cut, for bodybuilding at the gym, so I have been doing low sugar/ healthy eating protocol, and it's basically the candida diet haha. I have been feeling really good so I guess that explains why.
That's great!! Keep it up!! :)
If you had a candida overgrowth and went on this diet, you’d have what’s called candida die off and it feels like death. But so glad you’re feeling amazing! 💕
@cnrblog2660. I mean....not exactly true. It's entirely individualistic. If you just changed you're diet and you had candida....then the candida would die off slowly and you might not really feel much. Die off symptoms come when you are severely infected, or when you kill too much off for the body to detox at once.
I literally recognized myself in everything you said, I’ve just had a candida diagnosis ! Thank you for posting this
Thank you for this. I followed a strict diet for 4 months for this because of my high stress levels which were at their worst! The cleanse made me feel great and then had to re-set again from a flare up. I tried to show myself grace and it was so tough so seeing this video is very helpful, encouraging and inspiring! Thank you!!!
is it stress that caused your skin to act out?
I've suffered from an occasional candida on and off for a long time. But I have bern taking Apple Cider Vinegar, and I haven't suffered from it since I started.
Hi, How do you use ACV? like how frequent and the amount that you take. currently suffering from this.
@@scvzcif you find out, please let me know, I have been suffering from this for more than a year
@@scvzctable spoon to a glass of water. Mornings, on empty stomach and night before bed. Make sure you drink with a straw
@@lucylucy2171 Hi. thank you so much for this
You killed candida permanently simply by acv alone?
I am pretty much just eating fish, meat and vegetables. For my dessert I eat a long piece of celery with organic almond butter and dairy free cream cheese. I think I am starting to feel better. All organic only…… my problem was I was addicted to Organic whole grain breads. I love those grains and the oatmeal too for over many years . No more grains for me..
This was super helpful. I'm in my early 30s now and its like my body has gone haywire. Trying to do this cleanse now. I just subscribed. Thanks for sharing. It really helped.
Thanks for your message! I’m happy you found this helpful and can totally relate to that “haywire” feeling. Stick to the diet and be patient. You’ll get through this! ❤️
@@NaturalTastyChef mam I was diagnosed of yeast infection vaginal and tongue I never treated it by meds cause I reacted on it..pls need advise I eat white rice 3x a day..is white rice is not good on this yeast infection?I have stomach problem from antibiotics idk if yeast affects my gut...pls need advise
@@morningwithgracie7870 It's recommended to avoid white rice while dealing with candida overgrowth. You could try switching to brown. but some people notice that they feel best when they cut out grains completely.
It does not check all the boxes but fits my problems for over 40 years.
Your page is going to save me. Chronic recurrent vaginal yeast infections for 2 years and no GYN can help me besides prescribe more diflucan which doesn’t work. On day 3 of Candida cleanse and it’s been so hard already. Going to remake recipes on your channel
There are many more recipes on my website too: www.naturaltastychef.com
Good luck!
Hi, thank you for this video. I've struggled with eczema and gut issues for the past 10 years and I've never been able to fix it permanently, it always went away and came back a couple weeks later. Now I'm noticing that most of my symptoms are that of what one with a candida overgrowth would experience. I'm going to start with this diet and I'm praying it helps❤ your video was so informative and helpful, thank you so much❤
I'm so happy you found this video helpful. I also struggled with eczema, which went away completely when I cut out all dairy. Stick to the diet, giving it at least 90 good days before you start incorporating other foods. Wishing you restored health and wellness. Xx
anybody knows why no pistachios ?
@@percyflores7517I know some nuts are said to have mold.
how are you now? did it help?
@Nadia Sayed Khaiyum- As stated in the video you can try a specific diet. You can also add a little bitter melon to your menu. Which is very good for eczema, research it.
This gives me so much hope. I’ve been dealing with infections back to back for years and taken a lot of antibiotics. It’s pretty frustrating and I just to cut out gluten and dairy to see if I notice a difference in how I feel. Your symptoms sound very similar to mine. Thank you!
It is pretty frustrating when you’re going through it. Hopefully you start to feel better soon. Don’t forget to cut out sugars too. Be patient, it can take some time, but you’ll get there.
@@NaturalTastyChef did you treat with any herbs ? I am dealing with a candida flare I had it under control but a death in my family ( weakend my immune system snd it’s back ) I am gonna try a new lifestyle and diet change . Praying I can finally heal
@@lisagardner4814 I’m so sorry for your loss. Stress is one of the biggest disrupters of gut bacteria. I’d suggest rest, relaxing types of exercise like gentle yoga, Qigong, walking etc. and focusing on nourishing food. Bone broths, cooked veggies, soups and stews. Also a good probiotic and a leaky gut powder first thing in the morning can help seal and heal the gut. Take care.
@@NaturalTastyChefo
Antibiotics mess you up more they actually make it worse
Awesome...You are a gift to all the lost women who have this health issue. I had read" The Yeast Connection" years ago but never was able to keep it going. You have awakened my desire to try again! Thank you!
Yoga is a religion (associated with Hinduism from what I understand)
I incorporate my own faith (in Jesus) with prayer and meditation. It has worked since I was 28, and I'm now 59. Thank you for all the great tips!
Indeed it is! Many don’t know this
No it's not
People, please do a quick UA-cam search "New @ge to Jes#s" (type it out correctly) and watch all day long videos of people who were very advanced in this movement tell their stories of redemption. Many of them walked away from lucrative careers in this movement. They will tell you of the spiritual associations. There are also illustrations of countless Hindu gods (they are situated in temples throughout the world) and the corresponding NA pose. Please do your own research.. and pray for guidance
Its just an Indian philosophy by Pathanjali and part of Indian culture and not Hindu religion
Jesus gives so much peace and freedom, everyone is looking for!! He is no religion. It is a relationship with the most High!
sounds like a high oxalate diet, gives me issues with urinary tract and organs
im happy it worked for you and your healthy again
im trying to heal leaky gut
Use psyllium fiber
Thank you so much for this information. This is very frustrating.
I love this video, so helpful, thank you!I'm struggling with candida, started a candida diet a year ago. Very strict at first then reintroduced things from your list. I was feeling much better but then recently as I m tryed gluten, dairy and sugar again the fatigue, brain fog, skin issues came back... so I'm starting another round. I'd love to get your book for inspiration, that's my biggest challenge.
I'm happy to hear that the diet worked for you in the past! yes, having recipes on hand is a great help. Maybe the reintroduction was too much too soon. Personally, even all these years later, I notice that I can only tolerate gluten and dairy only about once per week (if that). Good luck on your healing journey and keep us posted!
Congratulations to your break thru
This is very inciting and beneficial to me. I appreciate
Thank you so much for posting this video. You gave me hope that I will not always feel awful
Do you mind explaining how does drinking red clover that you mentioned benefit this process? Thank you.
Red clover tea is thought to help cleanse the blood and liver. Basically helping the body detox.
As your explaining your symptoms I’m going check, check, I was in hospital for hip replacement after that was when my symptoms went off the chart. Because Covid & after there is such a lack of people in health care they don’t see me as needing testing they decide I’m not seeing a skin specialist to have the three different skin rashes I have currently. Here goes try trytry anything till I get it right thanks for the leg up❤
Where is the list of foods to eat and foods to avoid for candida? Thanks
Strong garlic oil capsules and 5 drops of oil of oregano in water in the morning. One day, HUGE difference with bloating. 90% of my gas went away within 1 day. That's crazy how well it worked for me. I'm also going to star star anise oil at night, tonight.
HEY, HEY, HOW ARE YOU DOING THESE DAYS- sorry for caps..how is the anise oil turning out for you - would you recommend?
and - pls tell how long did you use the oregano oil or still use? Is it safe to use it daily for longer periods?
Congrats on your turnaround! and the beautiful baby🙂 Lovely video, thank you
Thank you ♥️
Thank you very much for your testimony and kindness Be blessed
Loved this! I searched many sites and feel this just clicked with me! Yes want to look at all your resources,,!!
I’m so happy you found this helpful. Wishing you luck on your health journey ❤️
2nd time around with candida. Had never had any issues till I started Birth control. I was on this diet for about a month. Fixed the problem. But I stopped it and realized fair quickly this is my new lifestyle if I want to keep candida under control. My body reacts fairly fast and I've had lots of side effects to the pill. Thank you for this information, I look forward to healing.
Birth control pills are the worst! I also had lots of issues with that. Good luck on your journey, sounds like you know exactly what to do!
@@NaturalTastyChefi was raking birth control for years and then when i stop acne break out in my skin i wonder maybe cause of yeast/candida?
@@michellewalter2734 could be. Birth control disrupts the gut flora and your hormones are trying to balance themselves now that you’re off the pill. Good luck on your healing journey.
I'm so grateful I found your channel and all the information you give for free..
Thank you!
I’m so happy you are finding the info helpful!
So glad your video popped up in my feed! I was treated by Ann Boroch back in 2016. I will have to check out your recipes! I always go back to the Candida Cure for a reset. Glad you mentioned the nano greens as well. That’s something I haven’t taken in quite some time, and will have to get those. ❤
Aww I love that you know Ann and were lucky enough to work with her too. Yes, check out my recipes, I’m sure you’ll find some that you enjoy!
Any cookbook recommendations??
Thank you for the info, tips and recipes 👍
Thank you! This is exactly the content I’ve been looking for! New subscriber!
Yay!! So happy!
This was extremely helpful thank you
This is great! I’m going to check out your website :) a light at the end great! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you you are amazing with your information will be sharing with many thank you again God bless
Thank you 💖 I’m glad you found the video helpful!
Extremely helpful - thank you so much.
Thank you, Alison! What a wonderful informative video.
Thank you so much Cassie! I'm glad you found it informative!
Great video! Helpful to hear some healthy ideas for meals. Where do you find nori?
Sprouts or Whole Foods. Or depending on where you live, a Japanese Market!
Thank you so very much Allison
This was the best video, thank you so much!
I’m so happy you found it helpful!
I just started a candida diet three days ago and don't find it easy as you mentioned. Maybe you used to get clean anyway prior to this diet. I have a lot of skin issues, itchy dry scalp, bloated, gas, and a lot of weight gain and I'm hoping this works. I do have supplements coming tomorrow and working with someone who specializes in this. NO COFFEE? I'll have a migraine for days. I did hear that there are a few days/weeks where everything is worse and then it gets better. Because the candida is dying off.
Yes, it usually gets worse before it gets better, so hang in there. All those symptoms should clear up though. Give it a couple of months. And it’s great that you’re working with someone. As for the coffee, there are alternatives. Matcha should be ok and Yerba mate as well. Good luck on your journey and keep us posted!
THANK you so so so much for this detailed video. I appreciate you
Thank you for your kind comment. Wishing you luck on your Candida diet journey.
Oh I am so glad I found you. I have had brain fog since my 20s,I am 49 & have M.E..(7yrs) Dr Jacob Teitelbaum (M.E DR) Says the 1st thing you should be doing is the Candida Diet which lead me to Ann Boroch's book. I was so sad when I heard she had passed as she sounded like an angel & now I have found you! GPs in UK are not too helpful & just send you to talking therapy..& don't really believe in Candida or M.E. I am trying to do the diet but struggling, don't have any anti-fungals etc supplements. Listening to your story sounded like my own but I have other issues too. I am purchasing the food items etc but cannot find any clean candida supplements like Ann's in the UK. I feel like I have lost 20+ years of my life. But am encouraged to find this video. 🙏 🙏🙏
Hi Roree, I'm so happy to have you here too! Ann was amazing and really ahead of her time. It must be so frustrating for doctors to dismiss you. Did you happen to check out my supplement list (I have it linked below the video)? I wonder if you can find any of them in the UK. Otherwise, I'll do a little digging myself to see what i can find since I've worked with and get a lot of messages from others in the UK too.
Good luck on your wellness journey.
@@NaturalTastyChef Thank you so much. Yes very ahead of her time! Oh I hadn't seen the supplements list I will take a look & thank you I really, really appreciate your help! 🙏🙏🙏
@@NaturalTastyChefHi, when will your paperback cookbook be available please, as it is currently out of stock. I don't want a digital version as the printer isn't working well etc. & would like2carry the small paperback for travelling etc. So would like to order a copy. Also do you recommend other supplement suppliers as I have had a quick look at the one you recommended & the probiotics are in bundles (but separated in categories like beauty, hair..I am looking for an all round probiotic for health & obv want to keep the price down) & also it contains wheat seed, the gut supplements contained maltodextrin. Can you advise. Much gratitude in advance 🙏🙏🙏
@@roreetinkerbell6893 I've just added a link to my website where I actually recommend specific supplements and brands, you can find it in the description of this video "Candida Diet Supplements". After looking that list over, let me know if you have any questions. You can still purchase my cookbook in paperback form on Amazon, i'll include that link below this video as well since i'm not sure when i'll be restocked on my website. Totally makes sense why you want a hard copy, it's very convenient for traveling! I hope this helps :)
No sugar, no soda, no wheat, no alcohol, no cake, no frosting, RAW GARLIC, Probiotics, Yogurt Daily😊
Doesn't yogurt have sugar? Dairy causes mucous too
@@Continental123-i2ndairy causing mucus is apparently somewhat complicated. There's many reasons for it. One of the biggest can be lactose, which has been eaten in good healthy yogurt. But there's many reasons and it's not fully clear why. But some people get mucus from milk and not from a non sweetened yogurt.
@@Continental123-i2ndairy free sugar free yogurt doesn’t.
@@Continental123-i2nPlain organic yogurt has no sugar.
I’m doing only water , fruits, vegetables and steak, everything organic , should I cut the fruits out ? Also I seem to be passing through the garlic undigested so I’m not sure wether I should cut that out
Alison, thank you for taking the time to make this very informative and helpful video! Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
You are very welcome
Great video! Super helpful ❤️ just started the diet yesterday, hope I can stick to it.
Thann you so much!
I’m so happy you found it helpful!! Good luck on the diet, you’ve got this! 😉
@@NaturalTastyChef why no pistachious?
@@morningwithgracie7870 Cashews and pistachios are more starchy nuts which is why it's recommended to avoid them for the first 90 days of a candida cleanse.
This is one helpful video.
Thank you. 😊
Would you mind telling me if decaf coffee is permissible in this diet ?
🙃
Hi! It's recommended to avoid coffee for the first 90 days of a candida cleanse, and in my opinion decaf is even worse than regular with all the chemicles that are used to strip the caffein. There are some great alternatives you can try, like yerba mate, matcha and something called teeccino . I'm so happy you found this video helpful! Maybe i'll do a whole video on coffee alternatives next time. :)
ive been using monolaurin what did you use? not much time to watch whole thing rn.
I've reduced my sugar untake, but find it difficult to stop all together. I dont have anything else, no soda, no wheat or dairy. I consume garlic in large amounts, but yoghurt is a no, no for me. I keep meaning to get probiotics, but always forget. Will try to make it a regular part of my lifestyle. Brain fog was a constant thing, but has lifted to some extent since reducing my sugar intake. Hair is limp, scraggyl and straggly. My tongue have started to pink up a bit also. But no yoghurt for me, that will make me very unwell with colds and flu.
Yes, stay away from yogurt. Better to get your probiotics from a capsule or liquid. Hopefully your hair will come back to life after a while. You may also want to check for parasites.
Thank you for this great video!
Thank you!! And you’re welcome 😉
Thank you so much for sharing this information
Very very interesting. Thank you for your experience. I have something going on in my gut…. But it might be a sifo or sibo issue…
Yeah, they can present similar symptoms. Good luck on your healing journey 💖
you made me cry!=) thanks
I hope this helped!
Hi, what antifungal did you used for your candida overgrowth, could share it, pls !
I used one that Ann Boroch made specifically, but that product is no longer available. I know many people who have had success using the Liver Medic lately. Here is a link to it:
www.amazon.com/Liver-Medic-Candida-Complex-Digestive/dp/B00P8CSGHE/ref=sr_1_5?crid=F2TR4909K7KK&keywords=liver+medic+candida+complex&qid=1683050961&sprefix=liver+medic+candida%2Caps%2C107&sr=8-5
I just started Kolorex Gut Care Candida Balance (Advanced Candida Care) 60ct. Based on Dr. William Davis book called Super Gut.
This was really helpful. I’ve been struggling with Cándida for decades. 😩 i recently had a food intolerance test done, and was amazed at how many foods I had a severe reaction to. 😳 My diet has been very clean for months, but I am still so very tired with chronic insomnia, so I’ve decided to cut out the grains they said I could eat namely buckwheat and millet (I was eating millet porridge with coconut milk and spices whilst watching this video), and go with veggies, and meats etc for a while and see how I feel. I just wanted to ask you though, what did you have for breakfast whilst doing the Cándida cleanse? That’s always the hardest thing for me..... I look forward to hearing from you. And thank you for putting this vid out there.
I remember breakfast being a challenge for me when I started a candida diet too. I had gone from being vegan and eating lots of millet and oat porridge, etc. as well. I did eventually switch to more animal protein and veggie based breakfasts. Like eggs and spinach with avocado. Paleo wraps with nut butter or avocado, nut or seeded granola with plant milk, strawberry chia pudding. Stuff like that. Do you have my cookbook? I have quite a few recipes, breakfast ideas included, in that. I hope this helps and the best of luck on your health journey. :)
@@NaturalTastyChef Thank you my darling. And yes I will definitely look into your book.
How do you feee now after those changes?
Ive been dealing w/this for over 3yrs!! I did extensive research & figured it out on my own & now suddenly, Candida overgrownth is being mentioned everywhere! I fast on a reg basis, but i did a 2 day water fast & i STILL didn't get rid of it. Heres my ques...how do you know when it's going away? I'll think its getting better & the next morning i wake up w/my tongue solid white again & feeling like crap! What are symptoms of Candida leaving your body? This us so diff to get rid of!!
It's definitely a process, for me i started feeling improvement after starting Ann's plan in the first 30 days, and much better after 90 days, but it wasn't until a good year later that i started to feel like myself again.
Stick to it. :)
I have suffered badly with an ED in the past and have recovered but I've found out I've a candida overgrowth which explains all the symptoms I've been experiencing for quite some time yeast infections, white tongue, severe fatigue, constant bloating, constipation, body aches, brain fog full body Inflammation the list goes on but I don't want to be super restrictive and I need to still make sure I'm eating enough. What do u recommend in this case in terms of carbs ??
Great question Kate. I'd suggest quinoa, teff, amaranth for grains. Brown rice or brown rice noodles in small amounts. Sweet potatoes, butternut squash, kabocha squash, turnips, rutabaga. Cassava flour tortillas are great too. I hope this helps and wish you great health.
@@NaturalTastyChef how about fruit I suffer badly with constipation and I'd eat a pear everyday also a kiwi
@@katemelly5368 for fruit i'd stick to berries and green apples at first and see how you do. You may also want to try taking a magnesium supplement at night or epsom salt bath or foot bath for the constipation.
I really appreciate doc but my own issue here is d weakness of the body it gives and d legs is there at pills for candida🤔🤷
I thought lectins were the problem but now I am realizing it is Candida. Do you think people make this mistake often confusing the similar symptoms ?
Ok thanks for Shari g. It seems that one. May not be able to be on a vegan diet.
Agreed
Creamer recipe?
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! What about coffee, it's not on the list,
... Can I continue drinking coffee while on the candida diet?
Great question. It's recommended to avoid coffee for at least the first 1 - 3 month and then you can add it back in and see how you feel. There are some great alternatives for the cleanse portion like yerba mate and another brand called Teccino. In my cookbook I also have some nice substitutions. When you do decide to add coffee back in, stick to organic. Lifeboost is a great brand that's organic and low acid. I hope this helps!
@@NaturalTastyChef Thank you so much!
Hi! Are there any low oxalate, green juices that we can use? I mean fresh juices homemade
Also fresh juices in general, I understand they mostly would not be any fruit? Thanks for response 😊
Amazing video! I would just like to ask are soy and soy products ok to consume?
It’s recommended to avoid soy, at least for the first 90 days or until you see some noticeable improvements. Most soy in the US is GMO and overconsumption is also thought to disrupt hormones. Hope this helps!
@@NaturalTastyChef
They put soy in so many things.
You are amazing thank you
Ty great video ❤
what about kefir and raw dairy? Where i live i can get very good quality of both and i feel like my gut likes it
Great question. So generally it’s recommended to avoid both for at least the first 90 days.
Candida supposedly increases sugar cravings. Any tips on how to fight the very thing that's making us sick?
Great question. Ann Boroch made a supplement called Gluco ABX which help stop sugar cravings, it worked too. Unfortunately, you can no longer get it, but i believe you can find other supplements out there that will help. Berbine is supposed to help. here is an example:
www.amazon.com/Thorne-Research-Berberine-500-60-Vegetarian-Capsules/dp/B009LI7VRC/ref=sr_1_34?crid=250W7QUKNM6SN&keywords=prevent+sugar+cravings&qid=1683050347&sprefix=prevent+sugar+cravings%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-34
I have a tip that may help 🙂 its called gymnema! The sugar destroyer. Tea or tincture form. Digestion starts in the mouth. So I think I will do tea soon, as well.
@@NaturalTastyChef thank you!
@@t.c87 thank you
@@cbmk788 your welcome 😊

I am a vegan. Can I eat lentils and beans? Otherwise not really sure where to get my proteins from?
I wonder why no pistachios? Does it have anything to do with mold/aflatoxins?
I wonder the same thing, I wish she would answer here. Same with cashews...
Sorry for the delayed response, i don't always see all the comments. Ann used to say that pistachios and cashews had the highest amounts of starch/mold of all the nuts. (peanuts not included)
@@NaturalTastyChef ahhh that makes sense! Thanks for the response, and it's OK I understand that! I personally have recently found that I can't tolerate any nuts at all, but that's just me so it might be worth considering for some people to eliminate them all for a period of time :-)
@@hcure4003 that’s a great point. I actually developed an allergy to all nuts as well. I can eat them now no problem.
@@NaturalTastyChef oh wow that's awesome! was it a full-on allergy? And it went away? 😮

Do you have a video on how to make the dairy/sugar free creamer??
I do not have a demo video but it is super easy to make. Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
3/4 cup unsweetened coconut or almond milk (from carton)
1/2 cup full fat coconut cream (solid from top of can)
pinch sea salt
Extras: liquid stevia agave nectar (if not on a candida diet), vanilla or peppermint extract
Directions:
Add everything to a saucepan and heat over low until mixed the coconut cream is liquid form and it's all fully combined. Pour into a glass jar and store in the fridge.
ENJOY!

Is it ok to do the nanogreens even though it has fruit in it?
Thank you for this video! It is so helpful! Is it okay to have coffee on this diet?
Great question. It’s recommended to wait about 3 months before adding coffee in. There are some substitutes you could try like Chicory Root “coffee”…Teeccino is a great brand to check out. And if you do keep the coffee, just make sure it’s organic. I love Lifeboost Brand which I talk about in the video!
Thank you! 🙂 I watched the video a couple of times now for the reminders. I didn't catch everything the first time around.
Cane sugar grains?
Hi dear How long should I cut out natural and factory sugar, and when should I introduce natural sugar into my diet? Please explain. I have gastrointestinal candida
Hi, i's suggest cutting out all added sugars (cane, brown sugar and even things like coconut sugar, agave and honey for at least the first 90 days (3 months). Stick to birch sourced xylitol and good quality stevia during this period. after that see how you feel. I'd always stay away from refined sugars like cane, brown and corn syrup and mostly stick to honey, pure maple syrup and coconut sugar after that (in moderation of course). I hope this helps. Good luck!
Thanks! I heard if you have ANY mercury fillings (the dark/silver fillings), that you should never do oil pulling as it can cause mercury poisoning. Just fyi to all.
Yes, i've heard that too. Thanks for sharing!
I can't find link to the food to eat and avoid

Hi there, thank you for sharing your experience. Can you please tell me more about why beans and legumes are bad for candida? Many thanks!
It's not that they are necessarily bad, but since they are so starchy it's recommended to limit them to 1 - 2 times per week initially, or omit them completely at first. Also, some people have a hard time digesting them.
Ultimately, see what feels best for you. I hope this helps!
i just wanted to ask why yogurts and kefir should be avoided because some videos i watch say i should have them and some say not to
Hi Hana, that's a great question. the protocol that I followed recommended avoiding fermented products for the first couple of months to allow the gut to heal. I found that this approach worked best for me. I'm not sure where you're at on your healing journey, but i'd suggest seeing how you feel when you eat them. I hope this helps. :)
I agree stay away.
Hi thanks so much for the video but I have a ? Regarding plain yogurt thanks
Hi! It’s recommended to avoid dairy for at least the first 3 months, including plain yogurt. Silk brand does make a good unsweetened coconut based yogurt that fits the diet protocol. Hope this helps!!
@@NaturalTastyChef what about raw butter?
@@learnthrivecompassion422 raw butter is good, look for grass-fed!
It takes a long time I'm in month 3 no starches or processed food.
I've been put on a 52 day 2 stage plan from a nutritionist for candida following antibiotics for a skin infection. Had horrible fatigue, brainfog, aches and skin problems. I'm really at my wits end and just want my health back, I was the fittest and strongest I'd ever been before this and I can't understand what's been going on with my health. I've been vegan for 6 years and considering introducing some fish and eggs back into my diet. I'm doing everything I can and sticking to the plan which has only just started, but I'm open to advice and suggestions
You need to fast. A water fast or coconut water fast. Try a 3 day fast till you can do a 7 day fast.
Buy and consume herbs. Red clover directly kills candida. Burdock, dandelion, and blackwalnut are good. Good luck!
The vegans I know eat truly terrible food, lots of processed stuff, Meat replacements etc loaded with flour & additives. Wheat flour Can be considered sugar and does nothing good for you, so no bread or pasta, and also best to stay clear of Rice and potatoes in large quantities. So the question is whether you Can sustain a vegan diet when a lot of your usual food group are off limits
Hello, are things any better?
@@JRenee-Sings Hiya, yes I'm back to health now. I no longer follow a plant based diet, was just too difficult at that time and I've continued eating whatever feels right
@@Matthew...1987
Good you're better! Maybe consider Herbal teas or tinctures for your particular concerns moving forward.
I wouldn't suggest going with the flow though. LOL, certain foods and beverages are really harmful to your health. Maybe a plant based diet didn't work at the time, but a well balanced diet, excluding all toxic foods will help.
Some toxic foods include:Pork, Shrimp, Lobster, Catfish, Flour, SUGAR, alcoholic drinks, pop/soda, junk food, processed foods, pastries, Dairy, White rice, bread and so much more. More fresh fruits and vegetables (variety) lots of green foods. Some Meats such as:Salmon(Wild caught) Ground turkey, Lamb, (Lamb chops, Lamb ribs etc) Hormone free chicken, Perch, Talapia and so much more. I think, they key is finding good sources/brands. Try health conscious markets for your groceries. Look into prebiotics and probiotics, liquid vitamins, minerals, amino acids, Fatty acids etc.. These are some of the things your body needs to function properly. Remember, ...Herbs are the medicine. Some include: Echinacea, Goldenseal, Ginger, Colloidal Silver, Pau D Arco, Turmeric and even Raw Garlic or Cayenne pepper. You'd be surprised what they do for the body.🙏🏽
Very helpful...did your husband go through the Candida journey with you?
Cause i was told my husband has to get clean as well or else it will be passed on.
Oh that’s interesting. I went through this before I met my husband.
What exactly where your symptoms did you have the over growth yeast in your throat??
i did not have yeast overgrowth in my throat.
general symptoms were brain fog, stomach bloating, chronic fatigue, itchy skin. i'm sure there were more, it's been over 10 years now. I believe i go into more detail in the video.
Thanks for providing this valuable information can you please tell me one more thing with how much time will take to recover with diet and anti fungus medicine and when candida overgrowth is back to normal can we eat anything like diary products sweet fruits like watermelon apple.
Recovery time will all depend on how severe your symptoms are and how long you've had them for. That being said, usually after about 3 months of a strict diet you should start to see and feel some changes. Try to think of it as a lifestyle change. Although you wont have to stay super strict your whole life, if you fall back into poor eating habits and an unhealthy lifestyle you can expect symptoms to reappear. I hope this helps.
Sooooo helpful ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, I'm a new subscriber. I clicked on your Candida Diet Supplement List but it doesn't show anything on your website. Can you please provide me of the list of Candida Diet Supplement you have used during the 90 days of your Candida Diet Journey? Thank you so much for your help!
The link has been updated!
I’m a tall man on a budget.
What is a affordable way for me to get enough calories on the candida diet?
Hi Hans, I'd focus on proteins such as eggs, beef, turkey and some chicken, with leafy green veggies, sweet potatoes, quinoa and nuts and seeds. just avoid peanuts, pistachios and cashews. Also, avocados and other good sources of fat. Tahini butter is great too. I hope this helps!
@@NaturalTastyChef Helpful. Thanks
@@NaturalTastyChefDid you mean to include avocados or exclude?
@@hallaskjerah include avocados! They are a good source of fat while on a Candida diet. That read confusing in my reply.
Question…how long into the Candida diet were you able to start eating your cassava tortillas? I’m 6 weeks into the CD and I made some yesterday, I had one with greens and egg in the morning. I had another one at lunch with salad inside of it and another one with dinner at night which was zoodles, turkey, and veggies. I felt that bloated stomach again and even into the next day. Maybe it’s too soon for me? Maybe eating three in one day was too much?
Great question. It’s different for everyone, but 3 in one day so early in is probably too much. Maybe stick to one a day for now and at 3 months look to increase.
It’s always good though to test these things because then you get a better idea of where you’re at and what you can handle!
