5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive, easy-to-follow, complete resource, March 26, 2002

This review is from: Complete Candida Yeast Guidebook, Revised 2nd Edition: Everything You Need to Know About Prevention, Treatment & Diet (Paperback)

I searched through several publications on Candida, both online and printed materials, and nothing compares to the extraordinary, invaluable information packed into this book. I wanted something that contained the following: Explained what Candida is; Possible causes; Symptoms of Candida and closely related health problems; How to treat it naturally as well as through traditional medicine; Candida diet recipes.

A Candida diet was always difficult to find since many sources contradicted one another and/or contained food sensitivities while offering no alternatives. This book explains these contradictions, offers plenty of food alternatives, and guides you through the phases of your healing process. Best of all, the RECIPES TASTE SPECTACULAR! I was amazed at how delicious everything has been thus far, not to mention easy to prepare. Each dish has loads of flavor, making this diet seem not like a diet at all.

This book truly is a gift for someone who needs a complete, informative reference with a wealth of wonderful recipes to get them on track to recovering from Candida. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars From heaven!, May 8, 1999

This review is from: Complete Candida Yeast Guidebook: Everything You Need to Know About Prevention, Treatment & Diet (Paperback)

This book saved my life. I found it better than any of the other books out there, as the approach considers natural cures--not like other books which only discuss taking human made drugs to cure yourself. This teaches you how to prevent candida and disease happening to you for your lifespan. It is informative and covers the full ambit of issues necessary to treat yourself. It has wonderful food contact information, as well as a resource reference guide for other books that pertain to all she's discussed (unlike other books which want you to think they're the definitive answer). The recipes take a lot of time to prepare, but it's worth it. In any other country you would not get this complaint. It is a lifestyle overhaul that many Americans would find intimidating. Beyond candida, the basic information in this book has revolutionized my life. Luckily, I love cooking and keeping good health!

This review is from: Complete Candida Yeast Guidebook, Revised 2nd Edition: Everything You Need to Know About Prevention, Treatment & Diet (Paperback)

after 5years of misdiagnosis (after rounds of harsh antibiotics) this book helped me to get healthy again.
after about 3 months following the strictest diet - every symptom gone, my quality of life returned!!!
that was in 1996.
i recently looked on amazon to re-purchase this book because i had given my away to a friend a few years ago, and i wanted to go back on the maintenance diet.
i can't thank the authors enough for writing this book.
thank you!!
:)
