Changing to a juice fast for the remaining eight days...

I am realizing more and more on the cleanse that I have a fungus problem and candida problem. I have read a lot and everything I read says to stay away from sugar. So, I am doing a veggie juice fast now. Shouldn't this be just as effective? I don't understand why the maple syrup is better. maybe it gives more energy. Anyways, I want to see if my fungus problems clear up some. Any comments are welcome.
