Re: the books
The Yeast Syndrome - John Parks Trowbride (and Morton Walker)
The Yeast Connection - William G. Crook
I bought both for 75¢ on half.com!! I thought The Yeast Syndrome was the most helpful...Trowbridge (1987) provides a lot of medical and wholisic remedies and a solid explanation about what candidiasis is. He also emphasizes the MEVY diet for Candida (Meat, Eggs, Veggies (select ones), and Yogurt)...there is also a table about what should be added back and when.
I was really disappointed with Dr. Crook's book (1984). It seemed rather juvenile with it's illustrations (think Dick and Jane ). But also the low carb diet he recomends is full of corn, whole wheat, rice and potatoes...from the start. And most sources I've found recommend avoiding grains and starchy vegetables for the first part of the diet???
