Question....
For anyone who reads this (so...me? lol)...what is the final say on eating nuts on the candida diet? I keep finding conflicting ideas online. Anyone know?
Some people can include nuts, while other's can't. Nuts are very good for you, so if you can include them in your diet, you should. However in the beginning phase of the Candida diet they are best avoided or reduced.
Nuts are moldy. Some of them are also high carbohydrate.
Cashews are high in carbohydrates.
Macadamia, Almond, Walnut, Peanut, Hazelnut are lower in carbohydrates.
Well, based on that first website I sent you, this is what they say about nuts:

Thanks that guy...I think I will stick to adding flax and chia seed to things to get that crunchy taste I like...
ReplyDeletewhew this diet is hard! But I'm learning a lot of self control, something I've never been very good at :) As you well know.
