Hi muscledoc,

Candida is caused by high-carbohydrate, low-fat, low-protein diets and not by autoimmune diseases. One can have an autoimmune disease without Candida or have Candida without an autoimmune disease. The low-carbohydrate diet is the cure for Candida with other restrictions. See my web page at:

Bowel Diseases and Candida - News You Can Use.
