In the article entitled “Warning! Attention! Candida Sufferer Avoid These Foods” in which we discussed foods that promote unhealthy levels of Candida, we learned that Candida begins to grow in the gut as a fungus, creating an ideal environment for its unbridled growth.

We have learned that the environment in which Candida thrives is acidic in nature and this acidity inhibits the body’s ability to absorb vitamins and minerals and limits the production of protein-digesting enzymes. Limited enzyme production leads to symptoms of indigestion, for example, gas or gas problems are evident, bloated or bloated intestines are evident, elevated acid levels and sensitivity to certain types of food are evident.

It is obvious that in order to maintain a healthy body, free from Candida overgrowth, the foods consumed must be foods that promote healthy levels of Candida in the body.

The ideal diet for those suffering from Candida yeast overgrowth is to eat a high-fiber and high-protein diet supplemented with some complex carbohydrates and a small amount of fresh fruit. For example, the daily intake should be approximately:

65% High-fiber foods, such as steamed vegetables: Best choices include broccoli, celery, radishes, asparagus, onions, garlic, ginger root, cabbage, turnip greens, and kale. Raw garlic and onion act as natural antifungal substances and should be consumed as much as possible.

20% Foods rich in protein, such as: fish, chicken, duck, nuts, seeds and eggs.

10% Complex carbohydrates: rice, beans and oatmeal.
Foods that promote a healthy body and detect Candida overgrowth”

5% fresh fruits, such as: berries of all kinds, grapefruit, pineapple and papaya.
