The three Big food groups that you need to steer clear of are;
- Dairy
- Breads
- Fruit and Fruit juices
Some other foods that may also cause a problem are, Vinegar, Mushrooms, processed foods, coffee and tea and dried, processed or pickled meats.
Some of these may be able to be reintroduced once your yeast infection has been eliminated. It is critical that when re introducing foods from these groups back into your diet that you do that in moderation and only one food type at a time.
If you have suffered from a yeast infection it is almost certain that you will not be able to go back to your old eating habits. However if you re introduce the food types that are least likely to cause a yeast intolerance ONE at a time you will be able to identify those foods that you can add on to your Candida Diet Food List as safe foods and rule out those that you know for certain to cause you a re occurrence of the yeast intolerance symptoms.
There are also a growing list of alternatives to these groups, particularly with Dairy and Breads.
Breads; Quinoa, Millet, Amaranth, buchwheat and brown rice, are all alternatives to the breads and grains you may be used to eating.
I would recommend that in the early stages of your Candida Yeast Free Diet to eliminate all Grains and breads and after a week or 2 introduce these as alternatives.
Dairy;There is an ever growing list of Soy Products. In addition Goats milk can be an effective substitute as well. Olive oil, avocado, tahini and hummus can be great substitutes for butter and margarine.
Once you have your yeast infection under control it is really all about taking it easy and testing out different foods to add to your Candida Diet Food List, that you know are going to be safe to eat.
