Candida diet to cleanse your System

Candida or Candidiasis is often considered a “modern disease” as it is brought on by modern innovations like antibiotics, contraceptive pills and a diet of processed, sugary foods and candy. Candida is considered a serious condition mainly for 2 reasons:

It is undiagnosed very often, leaving the yeast to spread undisturbed.The immune system can be affected by its many symptoms. This forces the immune system to fight many other conditions caused by the yeast apart from the yeast infection.

Natural therapies are the most effective way to fight this disease. Recovery time depends on the length of time one has had the disease as well as the severity of it and can last roughly 6 to 12 months. For some people, this may seem like a long time but once Candida has taken hold of the body, it can take some time to get rid of it.

The best way of ridding your body permanently of Candida is through a Candida cleanse detoxification diet. Antifungal drugs can cause side-effects like nausea, fever, rashes, diarrhea, rigor and chills. Hence, a cleanse is a healthy and natural solution.

A Candida diet requires a strict regimen and lifestyle change. If you want to see any benefits or results, it should be followed on a daily basis. This diet should be rich in vegetables and unprocessed foods. Avoiding alcoholic beverages and fruit juices as well as soft drinks that contain sugar or caffeine is important. In fact, avoiding any processed foods (canned or pre-made foods) will make the diet more successful. A Candida diet will improve health and energy levels, resistance to disease and enhance mental state and brain function. However the primary benefit of this cleansing diet is the purification of toxins like yeast from the body.

The key to conquering Candida is to clean up the digestive system which is the main source of the disease. Constipation must be avoided so drinking at least 6 glasses of water and adequate fiber intake is recommended. Drinking plenty of water also helps in flushing out the dead yeast cells out of the system. Psyllium and yellow dock herb can be taken if diarrhea is a problem as they will tighten the colon. They also help in constipation as they are bowel regulators. Yellow dock should be taken separately from any herb that contains tannic acid to avoid stomach ache.

It is vital to make sure that you are eating high quality and nutritious food. And always consult your doctor before undergoing a new eating regimen.
