i was told by a holistic doc to go on a fermented foods diet for candida. at first i was like, this guy is nuts! all the info out there says things like sauerkraut, pickles, vinegar, alcohol, etc are really bad for candida. but he told me it has to be homemade fermented foods and that it would help heal the gut. i never took his advice but always think about it and wondered if it would help. he gave me the name of a book with all types of fermented food recipes. i have it written down somewhere at home. if i can find it i will post the name of the book. maybe it would benefit some of us to try a few recipes!! sounds promising since the sauerkraut really helped you!
