Can you tell the difference in symptoms when you eat something to kill candida vs something to feed candida?

I am curious what other people's symptoms are when they eat something that kills candida vs eating something that feeds it? Do you know right away?

I am still in the early process of cleansing (around the 6 week mark), so my candida load is still high. When I eat something that feeds candida, I will feel hot flashes soon afterwards. I bought some rice cakes with only brown rice in them, since I can tolerate rice, and I got the hot flashes soon afterwards. So, I knew it was feeding candida.
Also, I had bought a garden burger at work thinking it would be fine, but as I ate it, I got the hot flashy feeling, and realized there were mushrooms in the burger!

When I eat something to kill it, I seem to get more drainage in my sinuses right away. One day I ate some yellow rice made by the work cafeteria, and my sinuses reacted like crazy. I was coughing and felt like I was drowning! I thought it was feeding the candida, but when I asked what they put in it, it had lots of hot spices plus tumeric. So, I'm guessing it was doing me some good.

I am curious what other people's experiences are!
