Yes I'm very thin too so don't want to lose any weight. I've been on the candida diet for 9 or 10 months and have found that I can easily sustain my weight on it. You just have to eat three good nourshing meals per day.

I have porridge for breakfast with ground cinnamon and ginger for their antifungals properties. I also blend up some asparagus and and other green veg I have like cabbage, spinach, brocolli (brocolli feeds your good bacteria) or something and add that. I use soya Sugar free milk.

For lunch I'll sometimes have some bread I've baked myself (ask for the recipe if you want it) but more often I have tinned mackarel or sardines in a big bowl with any salad, veg or both (lots of it chopped up), avacado, onions etc, use your imagination. I add probiotic goats yoghurt (it only contains a small amount of lactose and I feel the benefits outweigh that small concern) and humous. It's well tasty and filling if you have enough of it.

For tea (dinner if you're the US) I have protein in the form of fish or organic meat (be sure it is organic) with quinoa or millet usually, you can have brown rice and of course lots of vegetables again! lol (load up on those veg)

The bread's easy, may as well give you the recipe now:

I use 1 pound rye flour (not sure about wheat as it's an allergen)

5 or 600 mls soya milk

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon sodium bicarbonate

1 teaspoon lemon or lime juice

For flavour herbs, I use rosemary & tyme, sometimes chives, you can make it spicey

Just mix it all up well and chuck in the oven for 30 mins. I bought a bread machine (you can get them quite cheaply) because my oven bread was falling apart; from the bread machine it's texture's great and it doesn't fall apart!

Even if you don't follow all of this advice just know that you're not going to starve once you get the diet worked out, I assure you!

Another tip is whether you boil your veg or steam them like I do don't overcook them, experiment until you find the least length of time necessary. You'll lose more vitamins the more you cook them.

Any questions just ask. There's so much I could tell you but it's all too much to take in at once.

I'd kill the candida with something natural but strong like grapefruit seed extract and maybe oregano oil and garlic, so that I can eat all I want!
Of course, sugars and carbs are off limits anyway...

And if you are underweight, keep in mind that it could be some other issue (unless you are young, in which case it's probably totally normal). Plus, people who are underweight look better and live longer, so what's there to complain about?

Hi
Raw almonds are tasty, reasonably low carb (especially when you consider the fiber) and fattening. I would be too thin also if I didn't eat them. Also-almond butter on Celery is good.

When you have candidiasys - SIBO, you have to go without any Sugar of any kind for 3 days (it takes it that long to leave your system) when you do your stomach won't growl anymore, you won't have a stomach ache, you won't have constipation or diahrhia. The best description of the diet is: Meats (not ham), vegies and nuts. If you can do this - you can do it. The only fluid that works is water for sure. The constipation comes from the lactose foods. The diahrea comes from the High Fructose Corn syrup. Once I figured that out and went on the diet - I started feeling better.

Candidiasys is a very hard problem to overcome - so don't get frusterated. You will have good and bad days - I have. I had this when I was 23 years old. When I was 23 I stayed away from dairy and ate meats, vegies, no processed foods, no pop.

Now I am 44 years old and I developed it 6 years ago - but I didn't know it was candidiasys again until this year. I know how to get over it - but this time it is harder because I have a family and a life now - I didn't when I was 23 years old. You basically have to stay away from all sugars until the Yeast in your body is back in check. It is harder the older you are and your body recovers slower. You can try probotic's like

and no I don't work for them - I have just had success with them. They seem to help - the coating on them helps them to make it to your intestinal track where you need it.
