Avacado Flair

Avocados are high in omega-6 oils. This might be the reason they cause a Candida flair in you.


?I thought omega-6 was good?


there are not ad ut when there is too much over omega 3s then it is. and we are very deficient in omega 3s in our current diet.


i realize that the avocado are high in omega 6's ut they are also high in gluthaione
which many of us are deficient in! i eat them aout 2x a week to get some. perhaps i should make sure to eat something high in omega 3s to alance it out?/

i have been on c-salt for one year and have made some gains though the one year herx was ad ad ad! the stories coming out of the yahoo news group contiune to e very positive and i plan on writing a long report after 19 months (it seems that is whne folks really turn a corner).


I hope the vitamin C treatment works out well for you in getting rid of the Lyme. Sorry that the Herx is so difficult.

Omega-6 oils should have some omega-3 oils to balance them out. However, perhaps even more important is having enough saturated fat, as found in coconut, to balance out the omega-6 and 3 oils. Polyunsaturated omega 6 and 3 oils tend to encourage yeast growth. Whereas the coconut oil and other saturated fatty acids will help eliminate the yeast.


So if I have an avocado and eat some walnuts or some sardines or coconut oil, will it alance it out?


Preferably, you would want to eat the sardines and coconut oil at the same meal. The walnuts have a fair amount of omega-3 in them, but not as much as fish.
