Change Your Diet and Stop Yeast Infections
Who doesn’t know the valve of having a balanced diet. But to some, the balance is a bit different from that of others. For some people, foods that increase yeast overgrowth or yeast allergies create the imbalance.
Refined sugars, corn syrup, white flour products, soft drinks, instant cereals, hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils, dried fruits, mushrooms, condiments, canned or bottled juices, leavened bread, pretzels, pastries, crackers, pizza, alcoholic drinks, apple cider, root beer, and any liquid, cereal, or candy containing malt products must be eliminated for the person with yeast problems.
“So,” you may ask. “What’s left to eat?” Fresh is your new favourite word! Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, whole grains, some nuts, seeds, unprocessed oils, yogurt containing live cultures of lactobacillus acidophilus, flax seed, canola and olive oils, and grain alternatives (buckwheat is one).
Even checking your vitamins may pay off. Anything you put into your mouth should be considered when trying to control your dietary problems. Yeast-free, sugar-free, and color-free are the key words when choosing vitamins and herbal pills.
Herbal remedies have gained in social culture and deserve consideration. Herbal oils that have antifungal properties are the best choices. Herbs that increase the immune system are great choices. Herbs that promote the growth of good bacteria are important. Teas that clam the inflammation are helpful.
Low-fat granola is a good breakfast choice and can help in more ways than one.
One belief is that people who are allergic to yeast containing foods should place the most emphasis on removing all yeast from their diets. But a person who has similar symptoms caused by Candida albicans, also may not have problems caused by other types of
yeasts. Certain types of yeasts may be harmless.
The yeasts in foods and beverages are the servicia or saccharonyces. Peanuts and pistachios are full of molds, so avoiding these types of nuts is best if you are allergic to molds or yeasts.
Going fresh with your diet may seem expensive. When trying to make a complete diet change, it can be very hard to see the benefits in the few weeks. But the costs of making this change will pay off in the long run by saving you on medications and doctor visits alone! Not to mention the costs of other things associated with your recurring yeast infections. It can also be a challenge to have to share a household with others who don’t have a problem with yeast containing products or with food allergies. If looking into the refrigerator is causing you a problem with sticking to your goals, maybe you could consider purchasing a small fridge of your own to hold your special dietary needs. Take a part of the kitchen for you to help you stick to your goal.
Clear out a cabinet or a drawer to use for your own personal food choices.
Family cooperation is a must, and your health should be taken seriously. Your sponse should know how important and how needed their cooperation would be to your recovery. Maybe setting a goal when you can all celebrate would be added motivation.
