Actually, you are correct on both counts - sorry about that, Angel. But, the reason soy sauce is not allowed on candida diet is the msg iin it and the fact that regular soy sauce contains wheat. So, in that respect, the wheat free tamari may still work for you. It is not the soy bean that is the problem, it is the other stuff in soy sauce. That is also why Bragg's was suggested. But, if you have a soy allergy or something like that, then definitely don't use 'em.
