Synopsis:
Candida albicans, in its benign state, lives quietly within our bodies. But when confronted with wide-spectrum antibiotics, birth control pills, steroids, and a sugar-rich diet, this yeast can proliferate, causing a variety of medical problems. Depression, anxiety, tiredness, allergies, and migraine headaches are some of the symptoms. In the past, besides medication, this disease has been treated with a strict carbohydrate-free diet that not only starved the Candida, but also starved the patient.
Former Candida sufferer Helen Gustafson and nutritional consultant Maureen O'Shea join forces to create this user-friendly manual for coping with Candida. A symptom chart leads you through the three stages of a specially taliored diet.
With over 60 recipes contributed by such well-known chefs as Marion Cunningham, Nasari David, Wolfgang Puck, and Alice Waters, each stage is a veritable feast of possibilities.
This innovative collection of exciting dishes would not be complete without an alphabetical listing of different foods and when they are allowed on the diet. Meal plans and sources for nutritional supplements and anti fungal preparations are presented in an easy-to-use format. The Candida Directory is indeed the most effective tool you can use to put yourself back on the road to recovery and optimum health.

Trade Paperback. Condition: As New. 8th Printing. 202 Pages with General and Recipe Indexes. A brand new book with flawless interior text pages. Candida albicans known as yeast, ordinarily lives in harmony with acidophilus the good bacteria, that aids digestion and elimination. But antibiotics, hormones, birth control pills, and steroids can suppress acidophilus, allowing yeast to grow unchecked. This yeast reacts just as does the yeast used in baking. When warm water and sugar are added to commercial yeast, it bubbles up so rapidly it almost seems to explode.Yeast acts in much the same way in your body if the internal flora is unbalanced. Unfortunately, the typical all-American diet works against a natural balance of yeast and acidophilus. Over-processed foods, refined carbohydrates, alcoholic beverages, and sugar are foods which encourage yeast growth, making the body a paradise for Candida. Once yeast has colonized the body it becomes a task to drive it out. The original Candida diet, designed to stunt yeast, eliminated all sweeteners and fruit. Carbohydrates were ruled out completely. Meat and vegetables, prepared in the blandest way, were left. Physicians soon discovered that patients who had been placed on this radical diet were weak and dispirited. As a result some complex carbohydrates have been allowed in amounts that depend on the patient's tolerance. Maureen, who has been working with Candida patients for ten years, developed a program for Helen that allowed her not only manageable amounts of complex carbohydrates but also safe levels of other taboo foods. The purpose of this book is to offer guidelines for a diet you can live with and will help you cleanse and rebalance your system, making Candida a problem that you can solve. Seller Inventory # 16192
