Re: does candida clear up on rawfood diet?
Hi,
Yes, absolutely! I'm happy to have found this, because my story is a lot like Anne's except that I have dealt with chronic candida for 23 years now! Wow! The past twenty years though I have been high raw as this is the only thing I found to help. And i have pretty much tried everything! However, no matter what I've done, I've found that Candida adapts and finds a way to feed itself! Thus I am still struggling with it, though it has gone away many times. I think overtime it has gone a way the worst thing I've done is believing it gone and therefore relaxing my discipline and eating things I previously couldn't. I have not tried Gabriel Cousens' Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine, exactly, but something like it (Hippocrates Health Institute diet, living foods). This worked well for me, though I have only done it for about a month at a time and i had continued issues with eczema/rashes due to un-healed leaky gut! Anyway, no matter what i've done, it keeps coming back, but yeah, when I have eaten cooked food (of any kind, which I did when I thought I got rid of the Candida and it seemed I could eat things I hadn't eaten in a while) it has been MUCH worse. I even got new illnesses. I developed Graves disease which I am sure is the Candida living in the thyroid. I got rid of it going back to 100% raw.
Best of luck to you and feel free to contact me!
