I will not go into details about Candid diets as I am not a medical professional in any way. I can only guide you to information and my own experiences and knowledge gained. I only wish that I had heard about these diets years ago and not believed in any 'quick fix' products. Note: if you do decide to do any of these diets, be prepared to lose weight or experience some kind of weight loss as all good Candida Programs eliminate sugar from the diet.

Healthy Recipes
For Products to help cure Candida. Most of the products and books on this site are to assist with the above diets. They are also a wealth of knowledge and assistance to general health and well being.
Kefir
Another great probiotic is kefir. Home-made Kefir is best. I have learned through my own experience and through other sources that people who are susceptible to Candida should only start taking Kefir in very small amounts and very gradually build up to larger amounts. Probiotics are usually introduced as the last phase of a Candida diet.
I will introduce more books and information on Kefir later. For now I have provided a link to Dom's site where you can acquire information and Kefir grains - http://users.sa.chariot.net.au/~dna/kefirpage.html Dominic N. Anfiteatro is known to be Australias Kefir King and is an absolute wealth of information on Kefir. There is also a Yahoo Group for Kefir http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Kefir_making/ where you will be able to acquire some Kefir starter grains.

Many candida sufferers find it hard to digest milk. The fermenting process of Kefir greatly reduces the Lactose in the milk, however I have found an Australian company that produced a Lactose Free Milk and a few other products. Most of these Lactosr free milk products are available in your major shopping outlets.
