Don't want the fungus that appears to become your lifelong companion? Then stop feeding him! How? Let's figure it out.
Pathogenic microorganisms attack our body, as a rule, in the off-season or winter. They seem to feel how weak we are at this time and are susceptible to all kinds of "invasions." Due to the lack of daylight and vitamins at this time, a person only has time to "catch" fungal infections.
How to prevent this? Nothing new - we should think about what we eat and adjust the diet.
When fighting fungus, the first step is to cut back on your carbohydrate intake. And add moderate physical activity. All this will help to "unload" the body, ridding it of excess fat, as well as some unwanted inhabitants. But remember - a low-carb diet should be temporary so as not to upset the protein / fat / carbohydrate balance.
A diet is necessary if diagnosed:
- fungal infection of the skin and / or nails;
- thrush or other types of candidiasis.
In addition, you will have to make adjustments to your diet when taking antibiotics (as well as some other drugs), a decrease in immunity, and certain diseases.
By the way, some mushrooms are part of the obligatory microflora of our body, and it is extremely undesirable to destroy them, especially since they do not cause any problems. But again, only until the moment when the immune system operates normally. If the protective functions of the body are violated, the mushrooms "go on the attack."
Of course, in this case, as in many others, one should not self-medicate. The doctor will prescribe a diet after a comprehensive examination, but you can also slightly improve the diet yourself.
You will need:
1. Reduce the consumption of sugar, honey.
2. Eliminate artificial sweeteners altogether.
3. Be careful with sweet fruits (without fanaticism).
4. Pay attention to fermenting foods. We must either exclude them or severely limit them.
5. Remove baked goods from the menu, as well as beer, although you can leave a reasonable amount of kvass.
6. Stop eating fast food, which is a breeding ground for fungi.
7. Reduce to a minimum foods containing large amounts of starch (these are potatoes and some other root vegetables, flour, semolina).
8. Forget about store canned food.
9. Do not eat bread (any, including whole grain) and porridge for a while.
10. Leave on the menu only those fermented milk products in which there is definitely no sugar.
"What then to eat?" - many will ask. Eat fish and seafood with pleasure, eggs and nuts, vegetable oils and fresh herbs, berries. Onions and garlic, peppers (black and red), sea buckthorn and lingonberries are also considered "antifungal" products.
