This diet was created to be given as a "springboard" to better health. It is to be used as a cleansing diet and for no more than 14 days at a time. Dr Alex Guerrero recommends that you cleanse your body every 3-4 months. You will notice that this diet does not include any fruit. In cleansing, we are trying to eliminate all forms of harmful Candida in your body, so fruit, because it contains fructose (a natural sugar) is eliminated, as it would otherwise feed the yeast. I personally always use Supreme Greens with MSM daily, so that any amount of acidic foods I might eat will be neutralized and I won't have a Candida or yeast infestation. Once you have "cleansed", you can begin to incorporate fruit back into your diet. Remember, fruit is to be eaten whole and completely separate from your other foods. (Mainly between meals, as a snack). Other snacks can include ½ cup plain non-fat yogurt (sweetened with 100% vegetable glycerin or stevia extract), ½ cup sliced fresh almonds, popcorn (air popped, or pan popped with olive oil), brown rice cakes with almond butter or cashew butter (no peanut butter).
As a note regarding portions in this diet, these are recommended as guidelines. If 1/3 cup of oat bran cereal does not fill you up, please have more. Just remember that you should eat until you feel about 80% full. By the time your brain catches up to your stomach, you will realize that you have eaten until you are really 100% full (it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to send the message to your brain regarding this). Also, take note of when you are eating; is it because you are truly hungry, or are you bored or eating out of habit? As for the products called for in this diet, if you cannot find something such as sprouted whole wheat tortillas, you can use plain whole wheat tortillas. However, try to find the sprouted kind, because they are alkaline and also do not contain the gluten, which feeds the Candida in your system. I have included two menus, one for vegetarians, and one for non-vegetarians. I encourage the non-vegetarians to try some of the vegetarian recipes -- they are delicious! Feel free to substitute a vegetarian meal in place of an animal protein meal. If you are vegan, for those recipes calling for eggs, use egg substitute or add tofu instead. There is a recipe for scrambled tofu, which is like scrambled eggs for vegans.
As a final specification, please make sure you are drinking plenty of water (not only during this diet, but always). For normal hydration throughout the day, and I know this is going to sound cheesy, but I fill up my water bottle with purified water, add a squirt of fresh lemon juice and ½ tsp. Supreme Greens with MSM, and I carry it with me wherever I go. The ladies at the Kids Court (the nursery at my gym) joke about how frantic I get if I misplace my water bottle! Silly to get attached to a piece of plastic, but I guess I am. Oh well!
