Erica White's Beat Candida Cookbook

This is the best money I have ever spent. Having suffered for years with a yeast infection which over the counter drugs have no impact on, I was desperate! This diet is NOT for the faint hearted! For the first two week I was suicidal (well almost) but now five weeks down the line I can feel the benefit. It's working and as an added bonus I have lost a stone in weight already. The hard work is not over for me yet but I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel. The book takes you through a four point plan, you MUST follow this to the letter. Everything is explained thoroughly and you learn what certain foods do and how your body reacts to them. Supplements are recommended and there is information at the back for suppliers. The recipes are great and helped me get more inventive with the ingredients I was able to eat. You have to forgo a lot: all types of sugar fructose, lactose etc so no milk or fruit, no cheese, mushrooms, bread other than soda bread, tea or coffee the list goes on but don't despair you can live and have tasty food. If you suffer with a yeast/candida infection this book will definitely help, it is a must have.

Thank you, Erika White, for producing a book that gives all the necessary and useful information on what Candida is and how to beat it in an easily accessible, compact form, great to read first time as well as over again, and to dip into for double-checking and reference. Since this is written by a nutritionist who also suffered from Candidiasis herself, I felt I was in most competent and understanding hands - very much needed with a tricky and upsetting problem like Candida. This book is a true companion on the road to recovery, to lean on in the beginning, which can be tough, and along the way. It helps me understand what is going on in my body, to recognise and handle the symptoms I am experiencing, both before and during the diet and treatment program.
The best part for me is the recipe section. The pure and simple facts could be retrieved from other books (even though many of them are not written as concisely) but the main question I needed an answer to was, "So how do I still feed myself?", especially as I have to live a particularly restricting diet (no gluten, no dairy). Erika White has considered all of these problems and gives wonderfully practical solutions which enable the sufferer to still make their foods taste good.
Simply invaluable to me: A bread recipe free of ingredients that contain gluten or dairy. I've been hunting for this for years, a true life saver! My heartfelt thanks to the author.

So helpful!!!!!!

This book was so useful to myself and my husband and confirmed our suspicions of us having candida.
After seeing specialists and being told that the NHS "do not recognise candida", we knew we'd have to make ourselves better.
This book tells you everything you need to know about candida and overcoming it, with lots of recipes too.
