Ernie,
I would say you were very lucky, I had alot of symptoms of candida and I
stayed on a strict diet for a year and it still didn't eliminate the
overgrowth, I did everything, probiotics, cleanses, you name it, I tried
it. Spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars. The diet is horrible if you do
it strictly, nothing like mushrooms, nothing that has mould spores on it,
like peanuts etc, I had no refined sugars, no pasta, I used other kinds of
breads, other kinds of jams, organic everything. I lost alot of weight, and
I wasn't even overweight.

Sorry, beg to differ on whether it is hit or miss. Candida can not be
totally eliminated from the body. There is always some left for normal
functioning. However, Overgrowth is another story which is when it poses
problems. I had it and didn't even know it with really no side effects
as a result. Even though I am a very healthy person, from appearance as
well internally, I obviously needed improvement. Dietary changes need to
be made.(refined sources and sugar is a BIG culprit in feeding it) So a
detox is in order for sure. Had to introduce human microflora to help
eradicate it. Began eating organic, lots of juicing as well.
Candida, is cause primarily by over processed refined products. White
bread, but then again most bread products. Enriched products like white
flour. White sugar or any refined sugar. Keep in mind this takes time to
generate.
Even wheat products such as whole wheat bread. I was recommended that
the ONLY bread I should be eating while on or off the detox is Organic
spelt or rye. No diary either. I know this sounds like such a drag and
believe me it was a challenge but I learned a lot and it worked. Please
note: this is not advice, I would still highly recommend seeing a
nutritionist who has experience with addressing this area. Through live
blood cell microscopy it was determined I had Candida overgrowth and
from the same test two months later results were negative.
