ive started the candida diet almost 3 weeks ago... i have to order some pee strips and ill let you know.
is being in ketosis good for these infections?

I'm pretty sure I was approaching ketosis during a recent 24-hour fast. I can't seem to push much further than 36-48 hours though, and my adrenals are exhausted so I'm not even sure if they produce proper amounts of adrenaline anymore. Super low carbs, I try to stay below 30 grams. In the few weeks before this, I had very poor diet on a few days (think: pasta, pizza, mac n cheese) and experienced a flare of symptoms following, achy joints, fatigue and all the other symptoms ad nauseam.

During this last intermittent fast, I felt like I could exercise during the latter part of it, like my muscles would complete the autophagy that was kicking in and burn more fat, but I had backed-up work to do and ended up staying shut-in. Only did some light calisthenics, felt good though.

Back in the day I would have played a sport for 2 hours and do a light workout at the gym then ride my bike back from there. Fasting and strict diet might get me there again, I hope!

The only thing I had for this last 24 hour-intermittent fast was: cold filtered water, hot tea ginger, peppermint, green tea, coffee with stevia and a few grams of coconut oil.

Easy cheap meal is a can of tuna on a bed of cabbage, season to taste. Tomorrow I might make broccoli and ground beef. Today I had red quinoa and jasmine rice, microwaved with some butter.

You guys that go on full ketosis: does it mean you are on ZERO FRUITS, ZERO PLANTS, right?

Buhner wrote that ALL plants run on glucose, meaning, leafy greens, avocados and nuts also have glucose, because simply all plants run on glucose.

To reach full ketosis, you can't have any glucose in the blood, which means, theoretically, you can't have a single bite on anything from the plant world.

Even my cat chews plants on a daily basis, and not once, a few times a day. She would also chew some bread crumbs under the table. So not even she is on ketosis...
