The Natural Doctor said it was okay that I had Amasai. Amasai is a greenfed cultured dairy beverage from Beyond Organic Products. I was excited when she said it was okay to have on the candida diet, since I'm not supposed to have any dairy and yet Amasai is a dairy beverage. It is really expensive but also really good for you and full of probiotics (healthy bacteria), which is really important to have on the candida diet. There are many flavors, but I went with plain since all the others have honey. It is really tart and a little Stevia would help with that if your able to have that. I am not able to yet. So it helps a little to add some berries and make a smoothie out of it. Be sure to check out some of Beyond Organics other great products!
Here is a great recipe using Amasai: Amasai Treat With Ultimate GreenZone.

How I'm Feeling With New Candida Diet Change
I am still trying to figure everything out. I'm not much of a cook. I mean I can follow a recipe but there are so many other things I'd rather be doing. So I have spent a lot of money at the Sunflower Farmer's Market. I should've waited until I knew exactly what I can and can't eat, because I've bought a lot of stuff that I found out later I couldn't eat. Trying to eat organic is extremely expensive, so I will have to spend more time planting and taking care of stuff outside in my garden. Everywhere I read about the Candida diet, its all supposed to be organic. I've also ordered stuff from Living Beyond Organic. It has great products, but also very expensive.
Now on to how I'm feeling. I have had some emotional times, but not near what I expected. I haven't really been craving sugar like I've read I would be. I attribute that to God's grace while I go through this. Now if I think about it or look at a desert too long I would like it, but I'm not like "I gotta have that." My energy in the morning is pretty good. During the afternoon I'm quite tired. I'm sure that has to do with the fact that I really haven't found a whole lot to eat that will give me energy. I'm getting sick of vegetables and grocery shopping, lol. But I have been able to fill my tummy. I fell like I'm eating to live rather than living to eat. :) In other words, there isn't much flavor to all I eat. Some things are tasty but I've been eating the same things over and over. So I will soon try new recipes after I get the ingredients for them! I haven't felt sick except for the one day of flu symptoms. So I would say its going pretty well.
