Candida cleanse & acidophilus supplements?
I am almost finished with CandiGone, a 15 day cleanse meant to rid my body of overgrowth of candida. I am also not eating any foods that would contribute to that, such as sugar, mushrooms, yeast, wheat, etc. Should I start taking an acidophilus supplement while I am still on the cleanse, or should I wait until it is over with ... or does it matter? I know acidophilus eats the sugars that are in your body, but literally the only sugars I'm taking in right now are from a once a day Granny Smith apple. I'll try to reintroduce VERY SMALL amounts of natural occuring sugars, like agave nectar. Does anyone have any insight or thoughts? Thanks a lot!
I'm taking this cleanse because I was completely addicted to and craved sugar 24/7. Not as in like chocolate, but that I could chew like 20 gumballs in a row, eat an entire bag of puffy mints, eat two boxes of Nerds/Mike & Ikes, etc. I have recurring yeast infections and other indications of candida overgrowth. This cleanse, coupled with the diet, has helped rid me of this craving and what would surely turn into diabetes at a young age. Trust me, I've also given up many more foods than I listed, such as diet pop (never drank regular), artificial sweeteners, msg, wheat and other gluten products, all dairy ... and I'm already vegetarian so my options are pretty limited!

don't forget that your body needs some of this yeast to maintain a healthy balance. increase your dose of probiotics, avoid sodas & other sweet drinks, drink plenty of water, and follow up with your gyn. a balanced diet is more important than avoiding foods -a nutritionist follow up might be beneficial for you.

Not that I know of.....here is the information I have about it........ Spirulina is a low fat, low calorie, cholesterol-free source of protein containing all the essential amino acids. Spirulina has shown the ability to enhance immune function. Spirulina promotes hematopoiesis (formation and development of red blood cells) due to the high levels of iron present in this food supplement. Spirulina may protect against allergic reactions by blocking the release of histamines. Specifically, spirulina may help with :- Anemia Diabetes Glaucoma Hair loss Liver disease Pancreas inflammation Peptic ulcers Stress To curb the appetite To promote weight loss Nutritional tests have found no side effects from spirulina, but you should call your health care practitioner if you experience unusual symptoms while using it.

Include at least 10 to 15 grams connected with protein, which suppresses ghrelin, a hormone that stimulates your appetite. Include eggs, which are proven to control hunger.

Label each with time in addition to calorie amounts to avoid eating everything at one time.

Also include 10 grams associated with fiber to satiate hunger longer and forestall bloating from constipation.
