Are beans okay on the Candida diet?
Not in the beginning.. I would go with tofu or soy protein isolate for protein at the beginning.

My doc told me to go on the diet when I begin taking a two week course of Diflucan. Is it better to start the diet before I begin the anti-fungal or is starting it beforehand better?
If you start the diet ahead, then you have already alerted the candida that trouble is coming… I think this can alleviate any die-off effect…
Also, is two weeks on Difulcan enough to eliminate the Candida? I’ve heard of people being on anti-fungals for months and even years, so I was surprised that my doc only gave me two weeks worth.
I trust that he knows what he’s doing
Have you asked your doctor, expressing your concerns as you have here? That’s what I would do.. so that you know *his* position on the matter… I do not work with the prescription anti-fungals, but I, too, have heard of *long* courses of treatment, as well as “two-week” courses of treatment… I think the difference is the particular anti-fungal chosen and prescribed by the physician. If you do ask your physician, I would be very curious to know what his answer is - hope you’ll post it.
