Thank you I appreciate your insight.. I would like to hear more about how you cleanse your system. Also interested in which foods neutralize and balance out the sugar intake.

I completely agree, a clean diet is all relative. Just like everything else in search of truth it has been like peeling back the layers of an onion. About 5 years ago I removed all processed foods and replaced them with a high carb low fat diet mainly from fruits since it was easy, healthier and still tasty although Ive been aware of candida and how this diet was probably not the best.

Around two years ago I reduced my fruit intake to around 35% of my diet and began incorporating healthy fats mainly from avocados, ghee, coconut oil, hemp seeds, almond butter and bone broth w/ marrow making up about another 35%. The remainder of my diet comes from grains and protein in the form of quinoa, millet, wild salmon, organic pasture raised chicken and eggs, and a bit of grass fed red meat. Also around 3 months ago I started drinking distilled water which Ive heard some very interesting things regarding detoxification.

The fruit is the one part I've struggled with. I regularly start my day off with a big smoothie consisting of bananas, mango and worst of all dates which satisfies my sugar cravings. I know I need to cut this out however it is almost like an addiction since Im always looking forward to it.
