Anti Candida Diet – 7 Tips

An anti Candida diet can help re-balance your body, and if a poor diet is the cause of your problem it can stop recurring infections. Anti Candida diet takes will power though and it can make everyday life tricky so here are some ideas on how to deal with different situations.

Take it easy! If your diet is full of processed, junk and refined or sugary foods, this is going to be a tough change for you. Cutting everything out all at once is going to make you more likely to ‘fall off the wagon’ and that will make the whole thing pointless. Take it easy and cut things out gradually until you get to where you need to be to officially start the anti Candida diet. For example Week 1 cut out sugar, the next week cut out carbohydrates, the next week starchy foods and so on.

Be positive Think about what you can eat rather than what you cannot. There are still a large variety of great foods with great tastes that you can eat.

Don’t be too hard on yourself. Sometimes you may slip up, sometimes it might be an occasion where you had little alternatives, a friends birthday party and she insists you try her cake and so on. Just because you have something not on the diet once or twice is not a reason to give up the diet altogether. Just get refocused.

Bring Your Own If you are going round a friends take your own snack, they don’t feel awkward offering food you cant have and you don’t feel awkward having to say no. Keep suitable snacks at work and in the car too.

Eat before you leave If you are going to a party fill up on a good sized meal beforehand so that the temptation of finger foods is lessened.

Be the decider when eating out. If you are going out on a dinner date call ahead to the restaurant to see what options are available. If there isn’t much you can have salads are on most menus today but be careful of the salad dressings!

Telling others. It helps when people around you know there are some foods you can’t have but letting the world know your diet is anti candida is of course embarrassing. Just say you have decided to detox for a while and most will maybe make a few jokes but leave you to it! Or blame your doctor!
