This post is for those of you that are serious about cleansing themselves of candida for good.. I like to call this plan the Three Step Candida Cleanse.

Step 1 – Candida Cleanse

First of all, diet is key.. Eat mainly alkaline food groups and low amounts of fatty or sugary foods.. Now is the time to drastically change your diet.. Eat many foods like salads, low sugar fruits and proteins. Keep away from anything that has high amounts of carbohydrates. This turns into sugar and feeds yeast.. Yes that is right, no breads or pasta okay..

A good example of a good Candida diet is a salad with chicken or fish or egg. Protein and vegetables.. This is Candida’s worst nightmare..

Step 2 – Candida Cleanse

Drink water okay.. None of this processed crap that exists out there.. Just pure water.. If you like take vitamin c with the water or echinacea to help boost it more.. When i say water, i mean at least 2 litres of quality water a day, 2 litres at least okay and have it near you when needed.. Water is very healing and will help lesson appetite which is important on a candida cleanse.. Eat well and drink well.. No beer or alcohols okay.. This will mean you have to start all over again at step 1.. I know beer is nice on a hard day at work, but really is it worth the symptoms of Candida again.. Oh man..

Step 3 – Candida Cleanse

In step three, i want you to focus on regular non stressful exercise. Candida is hard on the body so now you need to boost it with regular exercise.. No lazy days for those wanting to get rid on candida now..

I suggest a relaxing jog, and build up your fitness level.. Do not, i stress over exert yourself, build up your exercise level to what you can handle.. This will really piss off any candida bacteria inside you and help sweat away toxins..

1st week Candida Cleanse

First of all in the first week the body will react, but in many ways will feel better. One of the biggest effects will be the body will feel up and down.. Emotionally and physically.. Don’t be surprised if you start crying for no reason, this is common.. As the cleanse continues, bowels movements will be become more common and detoxing mode will begin. You may feel like your getting a cold or flu, this is common.. Its the body cleaning the organs as you stick to the healthy cleansing diet.

2nd week Candida Cleanse

The fun really starts on the second week though. Sweating, tired, lethargic and the body adjusting to low amounts of certain foods that may have been common in your diet.. Headaches may appear and feeling upset or down may happen without warning.. Also be careful of stress in this level of cleanse as stress is a big thing now..

To add a positive note here, the eyes will clear up, hair will look more vibrant and general appearance will show signs of improvement.. This is the reward for the cleanse at the end of the second week.

3rd Week Candida Cleanse

On the third week really push the Candida Cleanse.. You are at a milestone now so you will start to feel a lot better and healthier. Keep at it, do exercise, stay away from stress and the road is clear to recovery. The body will still get upset and you may have the odd day where it feels like your getting a cold or flu but then it will pass.. Keep at it..

While all of this is a positive way of looking at a Candida Diet, it may be different from person to person. To me I usually find after a month of a cleanse my body feels a lot better and when this diet is continued for say 4 to 5 months Candida should be totally in control.. Remember stress is a major aspect of keeping Candida around as well as exercise is always needed.. Keep the mind happy as they say..

Yes Candida, lets consume so much yeast that we start our own brewing factory inside of yeast that causes a multitude of yeast infections.. Does that sound like fun..? Not really but, it is easy to say, but horrible to experience..

The truth is let’s face it, yeast causes problems. We all need to see this. So what is the solution, do we ignore it or abide by it or do we make choices.. Yes that is right, i know its hard to eliminate those nasty addictive yeasty foods, but i believe you will agree the positives far out weigh the negative.. Start to reduce the intake.. Have some low sugar fruits instead for breakfast..

I know it is a hard one, society almost places it in front of us all the time, even in many biscuits or crackers, drinks, just for flavour.. Dang, sometimes yeast and sugar.. Candida heaven.. Healthy choice or a health risk, you tell me..?

The yeast connection is right in front of use..

So what is the solution if you have a broken heart and now you believe you have candida..? The only solution i can think of is to reflect on what makes you happy when you are alone. I mean we can choose to be upset and to hide deep in our emotions or we can choose to fight those feelings enough in order to move on.. I am not saying it is easy but a big part of it all is understanding.. Nothing goes much further than that in many ways.. It is so easy to blame your ex love or blame yourself, but deeply inside sometimes things change.. Its a sad truth of life, sometimes a broken heart is part of the story.

We all have to remember how we felt before the broken heart, before the relationship. You were okay were n’t you..? Now it is time to get back to that.. Look after yourself now and be happy.. Now going back to the candida aspect that may be playing in the same arena.. Try to throw it just like the hurt of the broken heart, if it was caused by emotions, then as you heal, so too will that form of candida.. Of course do the diet and lifestyle as well, just to be sure.. Good Luck.

If you hate your job, now is the time for a fresh change, i mean if you keep doing the same cycle do you really think things are going to change. I am not trying to sound like a positive speaker, but that really is how it all needs to be looked at.. Leave those things behind that have been dragging you down. Move onto what the mind wants and try to see candida as a passing moment.. In time as you progress on your diet the mind can help heal amazing aspects of one self. Keep focused mentally is the key..

The understanding of candida mentally really is about a third of what is needed to heal i believe. Other than diet and exercise of course we cannot forget to exercise the brain healthily as well.. Try to asses your life and see if anything may be attributed to the drop in your system resulting in the candida outbreak.. If you can see a possible reason, remedy it as best as you can do and then see how you feel. You may even find that your case of candida is highly due to emotional weights or possible even external emotional pressures.. Time to let go..

As a lot of Candida sufferers are aware Candida was not a recognised illness in western medicines until the late 90′s. This does not mean in Asian medicine it was not. In fact it was recognised way back and given the nick name the Drunken Illness. The truth behind the name is interesting.

THE DRUNKEN Illness

As we know candida is a yeast overgrowth infection caused by too much yeast in  the bowels and allergies being formed by this infection. When food is eaten in this state, the bowels react differently than a healthy body, they almost ferment the food and cause a reaction similar in nature to producing alcohol. In many ways some of the symptoms of Candida would simply of been the fermentation causing negative effects.

In extreme circumstances of Candida (chronic infection) some testimonies claim to be over the limit alcohol wise due to Candida, not due to drinking. In fact it goes so far as people being pulled over for drink driving and the person not drinking all day. So it appears in some circumstances Candida is almost like a home brewing system inside.

That give you something to think about hey. Is Candida in many ways like a long, long hangover..?

To answer this question properly I thought i would go through my experience with Candida and how i dealt with it. Exercise was definitely a part of it. How much is what i will go into detail in a moment. First of all lets look at what exercise does.

Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. We need it like we need good food or water. When we exercise it helps our body deal with all sorts of toxins, pollution and negative aspects of life. The toxins can be eliminated by sweating as well as exercise helps keep the blood clean. It naturally boosts the immune system in any circumstance and also helps keep the body and organs at a much healthier state.

While 30 minutes of exercise can be good as is recommended as a minimum daily by most health practices, is this enough? Is it just the same as 2 litres of water, when in reality 3 litres is much better..

Candida Exercise Plan

This is what i reckon, when you have Candida you really need to do the extra effort. They say 30 minutes, however now is the time to get obsessed and look at 2 hours as minimum. What i did in my circumstance was focus on Martial Arts, a style called Zen Du Kai, i spent a minimum of 3 hours a day on it most days of the week and it definitely helped reduce symptoms of Candida. In fact i found while working out a lot, symptoms were almost Nil.. They still happened but less frequent.

So here is the plan when suffering from Candida Albicans, now is the time to focus on 2 hours minimum of exercise. Become obsessed in other words. Get Fit. And now is not the time to choose walking, while walking is good, walking does not make one sweat much. Jog or Run or work out or do a sport. Anything to get you as active as you can be..

After that, see how you feel..?

“Candida took over nearly two years of my life.. Felt sick all over.. For the first year the doctors did not think anything was wrong with me, then luckily after going to a specialist Chronic Candida was discovered in my tests. After which a long road of recovery began. Some things in diet helped more than others and some products worked better than others..”

Candida really is a pain and it can really take over your life. It can go from being mild to finding it difficult to even get out of bed. In worst case scenarios when doctors do not recognise it, it can even make one suicidal. So this is where this blog comes in. I hope i can help bring more understanding to this condition so if you have it you can get on top of it and get on with your life.

My main overall focus here will be to go over every known or unknown alternative treatment. While all sufferers of Candida know there are many drug applications for the illness, many also know these tend to not really work. Can even make one more sick or the Candida even worse.. I know as I tried many types of medications..

That is because Candida is a condition where lifestyle and diet change is needed.. And that’s where this blog can help.. Thanks for visiting and feel free to BOOKMARK now!
