WEll, I just wanted to share some really good news about my expereince here with the anti candida diet. I have been in absolute pain for about 5 years with a problem of itching. For no reason, I started to develop a serious itching that was usually started, but not limited to taking a shower. Usually 10 Mins after a shower I would break out into a horrible itch that felt like needles and burning skin all over my body. This itch started 5 years ago, and after changing my soap, getting new detergent, water purifier, and anything, and everything you can imagine, I went to some doctors. No doctor could figure it out. They tested me for everything they could think of, including allergies, Porphyria ( blood disease ), cancer... I went to Chicago to see a specialist and they suggested Candida but my diet at that time was not put into that direction..... UNTIL now.
After two weeks on this diet, my itching is going away. It is so unbelievalbe how doctors will prescribe a medication to "cover up symptoms" and not deal with problems. One doctor even said I was allergic to "heat"? Can you imagine that? Out of all of the doctors I went to, only one, just one, asked about nutrition.
I have been a low carb person since the itching started, but I am guessing this candida issue got out of control because of the vast amount of antibiotics I was on prior to starting atkins. Along with that, I drank beer with college buddies, smoked regularly, but stuck with atkins. I ate cheese, and drank coffee all the time with heavy cream in it. It now makes so much sense.
I have been smoke free, exercising, and sticking to this diet going on three weeks now, and I feel great! I just wanted to share!
