there is soooo much conflicting information about fruit eating, when you have candida or parasites. all i know is it has been at least 50 percent of my diet for many months and i am cleansing to the limit my body can handle! dried fruits are gonna stick around longer and so probably will feed nasties better than something that is probably half digested from your saliva by the time it reaches your stomach- like a ripe banana!

i know that i was so very torn on the fruit thing, i did give it up for a day or so here and there but found i needed it.
anyway onto your other points, fresh basil is something i just bought today! just got back from the supermarket. it gives any salad a great lift, for me. living or very fresh basil is gonna have a lot of goodness in it and will surely help your body detox though i wont pretend to know the specifics of what is in it..
dont be too scared what to eat though my friend. for me i took a lot of advice with a pinch of salt. i wondered, how can there be all this food around my home that is growing in the wild, how can it be bad for me if it is so local and fresh? i eat wild food a lot. it started some pretty violent cleansings for me, especially local wild blackberries that are in season right now. i thought at first, again they had made me sick. but that comes back to the judging thing. sometimes you are sick, but getting ultimately better. sometimes you feel better, but may be getting sicker. its like yin and yang. good contains a bit of bad, bad a bit of good, so its important to trust in natural things and natural ways.

for me, this meant making a point to go walking places, getting good air and such. lakes, reservoirs, even local woods. of course, not everyone wants to go stand in some woods.. the ego will always pull you towards other things. but i started reading up on wild plants and edible wild things, and noticed so much all around my home to eat! it was so bizarre, and gave me a point to get out there. also the woods are half way to the supermarket for me so i always passed them, sometimes just grabbing the occasional berry, such as elderberries, or even a rosehip or two.. and on a good day maybe a wild pear! delicious!

again, there are people who say we can pick up yet more nasties from such unwashed things. i did not ever let this stop me, and maybe im wrong, i cant pretend i know. but all the benefits of this oxygen rich, just picked food grown in good soil, and certainly not sprayed or modified, full of the energy of the sun and rain and soil, was for me a price worth paying. this does not mean always force yourself each day to eat sour berries til you spew, just use your own judgement, even a small handful every fortnight has been enough for me to keep cleaning out. and its probably best to alternate such powerful things on and off.

find out what grows local near you! i am lucky to be surrounded by quite a bit of woods here and there but once you start looking, berries are everywhere. i even took a new route to my local asda store today and passed a house with a pear tree in the front! needless to say i kind of tresspassed.. hehe

theres no need to demonise your chicken either, unless you feel you can do without it and still get by. for me i did it like this- if youre needing something heavy on your stomach, have all your tea/ warm water or fruits beforehand. this way they will pass through and you get all the benefits and keep things moving along, then give it about 30 mins, which youl surely be ableto handle, and then eat whatever you want, so long as its not gonna hinder your ability to absorb anything, such as excess dairy which makes me full of phlegm and so probably my stomach is coated in the same thing..

by having an abundance of liquids/ easy to digest things in your early day or first few meals, you wont feel you have to include them so much while your body still tries to digest something which takes a while, like nuts, or chicken.

dont starve yourself of fat, for me i needed it. i dropped the amount of nuts i was using though, to just a handful which i took with a few raisins and honey but the amount is purely personal, whatever doesnt make you feel too heavy and blurry.

fat for me has been coming from large avocados. i poke them in the shop to find soft ones. hard ones are terrible. they are delicious for me, i used to hate them then i tried them a few months ago again and i knew inside they were fantastic and a very good choice. with honey, cucumbers, a few raisins/ olives, and some mixed sprouts, strawberries and lemon slices [and herbs like parsley and basil] they certainly put down my original belief that raw food can be boring or dull!

the problem for me with things like dried dates and other sticky dried fruit/ bars, was that they made me feel just that- sticky. and like things were stuck, glued up in my guts. perhaps it was merely imagination but when i am weak, my digestion is weak and even when i chewed such things very well, there were problems for me. i think you should find some unshelled nuts. for me this was important. by having to put in some effort [i dont own a nutcracker:P] to get each nut, i was less likely to binge and forget how much id put in me. also shelled ones have mold on them and are usually boiled or cooked no matter what the packaging says. i rely also on a few almonds which i put in warm water for a while then peel the skins off. this way they are easier to digest, but actually the parasites supposedly hate the skins [which contain tannins] the most. you must strike a balance between not hurting yourself too much with your food choices and hurting them enough.

theres an old saying, all things are poisons, its only the dose that makes it poisonous or not. the tannins in nuts can be hard on some people, as well as whatever else nature put in, put parasites are weaker than us for sure, and theyre gonna feel it. i know how it feels to want something filling and turn to those bars. initially i needed them to get by, but gradually phased them out, not by conscious choice it just happened as i got a little more accustomed to my new diet [any change in diet, good OR bad, is gonna have some effect on you while you transition, i feel]. so if you feel you need them to keep yourself functioning, still include them in your diet. as you introduce new things, even if its just one new thing a week, see how you go with that, and maybe leave some lesser things behind.

i wouldnt recommend going cold turkey onto "super" foods and deciding you are so desperate to be well that you will live off all wild food and leave behind everything your body has gotten used to digesting. all in good time.

be mindful and have faith in nature
sometimes reading too much of "fruit is evil"
and then "fruit is necessary
and then "only eat meat"
and then "meat is food for parasites"
really messes with your program and quality of life, leaving you feeling lost.

for me, TRUST in mostly local things i can get from NATURE, or at least would have been able to get from nature [for example,there are no carrots near my home yet i can get UK origin carrots at the supermarket so i dont sweat it]
has been important
there doesnt have to be a notion of god or mother nature, i just had to believe that what my land was offering was superior and that excess knowledge would leave me actually knowing nothing.
so i let go of most knowledge, but for what herbs were working for other people, and known anti parasitic foods.
again, be mindful and listen to yourself.
i could go crazy on garlic, like i had been, to try to pass what i believe is ANOTHER tapeworm.
but it definately does not work for me. again, back to the balance between what harms you and and what harms them. it is too potent for me, maybe for another is may be the saviour..

i hope that helped!
wishing you well,
Garry
