Coconut flour is commonly used by many who want to avoid gluten containing grains. Is it OK to eat coconut flour crackers however or should you avoid them? In this video I explain why it is a good food if you have an issue with Candida.

Thanks for checking out my video on a beautiful New Zealand spring day today. It might be winter for you. I've got a question here from a lady in the States. “Are coconut flour crackers okay on the Candida diet?” They certainly are. Generally, coconut flour, most good quality coconut flours are excellent. In fact, they're quite sweet to taste. They're high in protein. 

They've got plenty of fiber in them. They're gluten free. I quite like coconut flour. It's really nice to make cookies from, but just be careful what kind of sweetener that you add to it. If you're going to. You generally don't need to add any sweetener to coconut flour. I know some people who make bread from coconut flour. You can make cookies from it or you can make muffins from it. You can make all kinds of stuff from it. So it's perfectly fine to eat and you should have no problem with that all. 

Of course, coconut water is fine. Coconut oil is fine. Some websites I've just looked at say coconut water is no good. What a load of crap! Coconut water is good when you've got Candida. Just be aware that some coconut waters have got added sugar in them. The brands I tend to buy here in New Zealand are 100 percent pure coconut water, so you can get pure coconut water. I've not found any Candida patients to aggravate with coconut water or just about any coconut product. 

You do need to be careful with coconut oil because it does contain very high amounts of Capric and caprylic acid and other monounsaturateds like this. If you take too much, you can get quite a major anti-fungal problem, especially if you take supplements on the same days that you're having a high oil dose content. But coconut oil is a great one for doing a rinse of the mouth and for spitting it out in the morning. That's a good way also to get fungi killed off in the mouth and bacteria and to clean the mouth up. That's something you can do, too. 

Yeah, no. I'm quite happy with coconut products. Just don't do them too much initially. You may want to slowly start with them and then gradually build them up. They're perfectly fine by me. Thanks for tuning in.
