Hi Deotima
Your bread recipe looks delicious. I am a bit iffy with buckwheat,but a little is usually OK.
Your bread has spelt in it. Do you have leaky gut? If so, does the gluten in the spelt not affect you? For example, brain fog?
I have avoided spelt because of its gluten content (I know its lower than modern wheat strains, but I avoid it nevertheless).
Thanks in advance.

MoreThis is a reply to # 800,171Spelt indeed contains gluten and is banished from the diets of the gluten-intolerant, but all people no matter if they are intolerant to gluten or not put on some minimal wear on the sensible villi if they eat gluten containing food, will say.
As known the villi's are the prominent component to a healthy permeability in the gut.
Many homeopath's advice would be to avoid gluten in candida diets but if you are sure that your leaky gut is not caused by gluten then it may not do so large damage.- Re: on a sidenote HOWBURN

Hi Carthage
Im not sure what caused it. Candida, parasites, stress, poor diet. However, the level of affect that gluten has on me has reduced. It used to knock me off my feet within 30 minutes, and I would sleep for at least 30 minutes after that. Rapid heartbeat, joint pain etc.
However, lately I have tried a few oat products, which are lower in gluten than wheat, and have not noticed any reaction. This is strange, because I don't believe my leaky gut is healed. I still have too much candida, and have only just finished a parasite cleanse (some of which contribute to leaky gut also), for that to be so.
WIll just accept it as a good sign, perhaps, that things are moving in the right direction, and that my leaky gut is, if not healed, healing itself.

This is a reply to # 800,595It seems that you indeed are sensitive to gluten, there is a recognized suspicion amongst health specialists that systemic candida is majorly caused by gluten- or lactose intolerance.
I've had almost the same symptoms, sleep-wall after intake of gluten, joint pains and such but my heart is rather weak so i've had heart irregularities instead.
It's always good to reassure with a biopsy that some kind of gluten-intolerance may be present, in celiac disease the colon is exposed to a 40 to 200 times inflated risk of catching cancer if there is presence of gluten, however if you have come to the conclusion that your symptoms are traced back to gluten then a lifetime gluten-free diet is all you need and an appointment with a knowledgeable dietist/homeopath to confirm your suspicions.
Leaky gut is preferrably healed when not taking any antifungals except garlic, for a week so it gets a headstart or to a major advantage, a month.
It may heal also with the presence of antifungals but not in such rapid state as without.
The headpoint is not to take any kind of allergens, dairy (yoghurt, eggs), caprylic acid until symptoms of candida are gone.
I have been thinking of making some oat-porridge of clean oats but i've been just too shaky to have the guts to try it out.
Especially onions are good for leaky gut and garlic too but garlic may cause some sourness in the gut if it's taken in too large quantities, trying out is the best method to adjust the dose.
Somewhat debated is Aloe Vera juice, it's majorly beneficial against inflammaions especially in the gut but since it's made of polysaccharides to 25% of it's content makes it a little misgiving, polysaccharides are a kind of Sugar in long-strains which means that it stays the same way ingested as digested so i've found it a little disputable lately fi candida can get to it so easily.
But if i would have been forced to go through leaky gut again i would take aloe vera two spoons a day no matter what happened, since it doesn't cause too much a fuss anyway.
I find it pleasing to know that you're getting on the right track, best recovering wishes!

Hi Carthage
thanks for your input. I was not aware that the healing of leaky gut would be disadvantaged by taking anti fungals. Also, most, if not all (except askshelley) say home made long fermented yoghurt is good to eat on the candida diet, which I have done.
However, what you say resonates with me. I stopped eating yoghurt about 2 weeks ago (got a dose of food poisoning, and simply haven't been able to face it, or for that matter seeds, which I ate daily, since. I also stopped taking anti fungals about 6 weeks ago, apart from garlic. Is that why I am noticing my leaky gut symptoms have receded?
Do you have any more information on this?
Thanks

This is a reply to # 801,389Hi Howburn
What happens inside your body when antifungals are postponed is that the focus of your energy is directed at aiding your gut lining, if you're clogging up your liver, kidneys etc. with toxins from the die-off then there isn't much energy left for the gut.
The gainable bit about this transition is that when the gut is healed the candida in your bowels and blood gets separated so the fungi can't leak more into the bloodstream.
It would just be a futile attempt to try to get rid of the fungi in the blood if the gut is providing it with more
Seeds are ok to eat but prefer not the roasted ones since roasting means mold.
One particular thing i found very useful to do was oil pulling, it's just an wonderful thing to do which doesn't demand any complicative measures.
You can read it all here:

I do it with sesame oil 20 min 2 times a day just swishing it in my mouth and find myself enjoying it since the aroma that it creates reminds me of cashew.
Hope i answered some of the questions.
And happy new year!

Buckwheat is gluten free. Buckwheat is not a true cereal as it is not a member of the grass family, instead being related to sorrels and docks. If you look at docks closely, you can see that the seeds, though smaller, have the same distinctive triangular shape.
100g of buckwheat provides 11.7g protein, 3.9mg iron and it is very high in calcium with 114mg per 100g. Available raw the seeds are greenish-pink, or roasted (known as kasha) the seeds are darker reddish-brown. It can be cooked (1:2 parts water for 6 minutes, leave to stand for 6 minutes) and served like rice or you can add it to stews and casseroles. Buckwheat flour can be added to cakes, muffins, pancakes etc. where it imparts a distinctive flavour. Look out too for buckwheat spaghetti, soba.
Some people in israel confuse the two. Are you an israeli?
The buckwheat and spelt are not the same.
Buckwheat is ha'adamah. Spelt is ha-motzi. At least that's how we hold in my home.
Unlike buckwheat, spelt (Triticum spelta) is a true grain with a flavorful nutty taste. It is an ancestor of wheat, which means that spelt does contain gluten and is off-limits to those on gluten-free diets.
Despite it’s name, buckwheat is NOT related to wheat at all !!!- Re: Deotima, question re your bread ... HOWBURN

No Im not Israeli, but English. I understand buckwheat, but do have a bad reaction to it, although I know not why.
I can only assume its high carb content, and the fact that I have eaten it from its floor form, that it has gotten through my permeable gut and caused an immune response. I get the same with brown rice. I just thought that a little of it, inthe bread as an occasional treat shouldn't hurt too much, whence my question about the spelt.
Thanks for your input.

This is a reply to # 800,171Hi Fiona, I don't have a problem with spelt, if it is not gluten free it does not affect me as badly as rice. I suppose we are all different.You could make the bread with all buckwheat flour, but some percentage of spelt improves the tast and texture. I'm also hooked on Dr Karg's spelt crispbreads with seeds which we can get here in the UK in health food shops. Love and Light, Deotima.
