Candida Cleanse while Juice Fasting?

[Shan]

Anyone know if it's safe to do a herbal Candida Cleanse program while Juice Fasting? I'm on Day 10 of a 30 day Juice Fast and I thought it might be good to "kick 'em when they're down" (the Candida I mean :)) but don't know if it would be too hard on my body. Advice?

It might be the easiest on your body, since you won't have to digest as much and can concentrate on cleansing.
All though, if you are doing a greens fast with just alkaline fruits like granny smith apples and lemons and limes, your body will rid itself of yeast.

Are you just juicing low glycemic veggies and greens?

From what I have read from candida experts, "candida cleanses" can be unpleasant because they cause rapid die off. I think just sticking to the greens, and maybe adding some young coconut kefir would be easiest on the body. Check out www.bodyecology.com for how to make it. Soooo yummy, and the fermented food would definitely aid in a good cleanse. Listen to your body though... if it says herbal cleanse- herbal cleanse!

Congratulations on day 10 already!!!! YAY!

What herbal cleanse?

Fasting is a cleanse itself too.

I would stay away from juicing too many oranges. Melons may even be too damp for the terrain. You can aid with GSE in plain warm water. Fermented foods are "iffy" b/c the naturally occurring alcohol can flare up the candida.....each person is differnet so it depends on your symptoms and response.

Blood pruifying is so important when dealing with auto-immune. the compromised lining allows toxins and poisins to enter the bloodstream

Here is some insiteful info

But is Fasting strong enough to kill the Candida? I though you needed to take a remedy of a mixture of these herbs to kill the Candida in all of it's growth stages: Black Walnut, Green Hull, Cloves & Wormwood. I just don't know if I should do the Remedy now or after the fast.

As for what juices to drink, I started doing a Juice Cleanse, but on day 9 I felt repelled by the juice, but when I tried to go to just water all day the detox was so bad that I had to have at least one glass of juice. The same on Day 10. Yesterday and today I have gone totally to water and feel fine!


Thanks for your thoughts Everyone!
