Candida Yeast Diet Don'ts

On a candida and diet plan, the goal is to limit foods that feed yeast and promote inflammation. Candida overgrowth is linked to excessive sugar and refined carbs. While it's not the only driver, it is a major driver. The other major driver is leaky gut. Here's a candida foods list to avoid:

  • Sugars and sweeteners : Table sugar, honey, maple syrup, agave, molasses, corn syrup, and artificial sweeteners like aspartame.
  • Refined carbohydrates : White bread, pasta, white rice, pastries, and most processed baked goods.
  • High-sugar fruits : Bananas, grapes, mangoes, dried fruits, and fruit juices.
  • Starchy vegetables : Potatoes, corn, beets, and peas.
  • Dairy : Milk, cheese (except aged cheeses like Parmesan), and sweetened yogurt (lactose can feed Candida).
  • Processed foods : Packaged snacks, cereals, and anything with added sugars or additives.
  • Alcohol : Beer, wine, spirits (high in sugars and yeast).
  • Fermented foods : Soy sauce, vinegar (except apple cider vinegar), kombucha, and pickled foods (can exacerbate yeast growth in some cases).
  • Yeast-containing foods : Bread, brewer's yeast, and some processed foods with yeast extracts.
  • Moldy or fungal foods : Mushrooms, peanuts, cashews, and moldy cheeses (e.g., blue cheese).

CONCLUSION

Choosing a supplement with all these complimentary ingredients, as is the case in Hepatiben, gives you much greater speed and efficacy in reversing fatty liver than you will find in other products in the marketplace. Incorporating a candida yeast overgrowth diet can further enhance your health journey by targeting yeast-related issues.
