Thanks a lot - I copied down your links and what they said. I do research on natural methods of healing a lot - online. I'm very careful to eat healthfully, and eat no processed foods. I am allergic to more foods than I used to by now - I'm age 61. So I'm on a very strict diet. I've fasted for a few days at a time before to try it out - but couldn't feel any benefit from it. Unless badly constipated. But by now, and very recently - I've found much better success in avoiding and overcoming constipation. Things like a tiny bit of powdered mustard, and cooked flaxseeds help. But I still don't have victory against diarrhea. So am still working on trying to figure out what might best help that. Probiotics don't help me - I've tried them before. And any probiotic that is fermented - wouldn't be good for the reason that fermented foods aren't good for Candida. That's what I've found, in my case. I wash my dishes in salt water, and that helps reduce Candida symptoms to an extent. I eat just lentils, grains (except for wheat, which I'm allergic to), and milk. Though I tried avoiding milk recently, to see if I felt better without it. But now I'm going to try taking it again to see if I notice it bothering me. One sister, and a relative of mine, who also have allergies and Candida - suggested I figure out what my blood type is and to try out eating according to what is recommended for my blood type too. So I've sent for a blood testing kit from Ebay, and will try it out when it comes.
I also keep all my cooked food in the freezer and thaw out a little, with my microwave, whenever I want to eat it. That helps prevent Candida symptoms to an extent, too, I've found.
