Psoriasis Arthritis Fruit Diet


This article talks about psoriasis arthritis fruit diet. According to a book on healing psoriasis, people who experience psoriatic arthritis symptoms should avoid the nightshade family that includes tomato, potato, peppers and eggplants.

Other diet that helps clearing psoriasis is high fruit and vegetable juice diet. If you experience a flare-up in psoriatic symptoms, according to Dr. Pagano's book, it is part of the healing process. However, according to one candida sufferer who happens to have psoriasis problem too, fruit and vegetable diet that she took gave her a flare-up-like symptoms which had gone worse and worse and it depressed her.

The main concern about a high fruit diet is that many people with candida have reactive hypoglycemia. Too much fruit can cause blood sugar to drop like a rock.

Also, most candida sufferers have problem with gas and too much fruit can make them very gassy as well.

Fruit is absolutely off limits on a candida diet. The only ones allowable in strict moderation are the berries and avocadoes as they are low in fructose. Someone made a post that candida only feeds on refined sugars, not natural ones (like the fructose found in fruit). This is wrong. All yeasts feed off of sugar of any type--it makes NO difference if it's a "natural" or "refined" sugar.

Avoid all simple sugars when on a candida diet--this includes fructose from fruit. I would even curtail intake of the starchier vegetables like winter squash, sweet potatoes, parsnips, and carrots. Parsnips and carrots, are very high on the Glycemic Index which means they cause spikes in your insulin levels, not a desirable thing with candida.
