I always recommend following the advice of your doctor as he / she knows you best and can tailor a plan to your specific needs. Having said that everyone is a little different so the specific guidelines your doctor gave you don't necessarily apply to everyone else. The weekly meal plan items are all made with yeast free or sugar free ingredients....including the waffles, spaghetti, garlic bread, toast, salsa etc..etc.. There are plenty of yeast free and gluten free breads you can either make or order online. This is detailed out in my cookbook. Also not everyone is gluten intolerant but if you are avoiding wheat because of the gluten there are gluten free flours you can use instead. Likewise not all spaghetti or pizza has to be made with wheat flour. As for the tomato - some people are sensitive to it but my personal experience is that it is fine for many people. You will want to avoid peanut butter but sun butter or almond butters are fine. If you can't find a variety of rice milk that is sugar free we recommend sugar free almond milk. I also rely on one of my favorite books called The Yeast Connection by Dr. William Crook. In it he lists potatoes, sweet potatoes, beans, whole grains and wheat on his "Food you can eat cautiously" list. Again defer to your doctor on your individual sensitivities but many people don't have a problem with these items in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Again - the items listed on the weekly meal planning guide are from recipes in my cookbook where substitutions are made for the ingredients that are not allowed on the yeast free diet. Try not to get too hung up on the differences between the recommended foods on different sites and resources. If you are avoiding the major categories of yeast, sugars, dairy, fruits and fermented / preserved foods along with taking a good anti-fungal you should see progress on your diet. Good luck. ~Whitney Hi Nikki thanks for the note. I always recommend following the advice of your doctor as he / she knows you best and can tailor a plan to your specific needs.

I did the candida diet about 15 years ago and although I didn't follow it to the letter, I had a lot of success. I'm going to do the diet again and have sought the advice of my naturopath. According to her, you should not eat grains, dairy, fruit or vegetables other than those that are low glycemic. Going through your first week of the diet, I picked out the things that, according to her, I cannot eat. Here they are: tomato (it's a fruit) nut butter oatmeal rice milk (check the sugar in it, it's as high as regular milk) sweet potato waffles carrots spaghetti (wheat) garlic bread (wheat) toast (wheat) pizza (has wheat and dairy) fries crackers biscuits and gravy potato pancakes I'm just wondering how you can explain having these items as part of the diet.

Try looking at her website also. Jonell had fibromyalgia and could help you tons! I was greatly helped by her knowledge and experience when I was nursing my little boy who was scratching himself to death. Look into it. It will reduce your recovery time in a big way!
