Delicious Foods to Eat if You Have Candida....and Avoid
While your meal planner will exclude the ingredients listed above, below are some additional notes about what to consider when eating for Candida. These are important to note when you are snacking or making your own recipes.
Foods to Avoid or Restrict if You Have Candida
Restrict- Sugars, fruits, refined or processed grains, and milk (milk sugar can trigger yeast proliferation)
- Mushrooms
- All vinegars and the products containing vinegar. This includes white vinegar, red wine vinegar, rice vinegar, and balsamic vinegar, and any food made with vinegar, such as mayonnaise, commercial salad dressing, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, BBQ sauce, shrimp sauce, soy sauce, mustard, pickles, pickled vegetables, green olives, relishes, horseradish, mincemeat, and chili sauce. It is possible to use raw and unfiltered apple cider vinegar.
- Coffee, spices, sprouts, condiments, seeds, and nuts should be used cautiously. They can grow mold quickly.
Other Delicious Foods to Eat Which Limit the Overgrowth of Candida
With the variety of flavors found in these foods, you won't even miss the over-processed and high-sugar foods you ate before.Antifungals
Use strong antifungals including garlic, onions, chives, and leeks. Oregano oil is a strong antifungal. Palm and coconut oil (which contains caprylic acid also called octanoic acid) are also strong antifungals.

What is Candidiasis?
Candidiasis is a fungal infection commonly referred to as a yeast infection or thrush. It can occur in your mouth, esophagus, intestines, bladder, vagina, or male genitals.
