Not sure what you mean bout the fruit can you explain?
Don’t stress about this too much – just experiment and see what works best for you.
The only sugar I have to avoid is refined sugar in the form of sugar lumps, cakes, biscuits, processed breakfast cereals, chocolate, etc.... as it will cause a psoriasis flare if I eat too much. But I can eat fresh raw fruit until it is oozing out of every orifice with no problems.
Years ago I use to have issues with Fructose Malabsorption. But even then you can still consume certain fruits, whilst avoiding others.
Some people can find overindulgence on fruit makes their psoriasis worse, in that case just limit your intake. But they can usually eat vegetables. And really, raw vegetables are some of the best foods you can eat for your skin –
although perhaps avoid nightshades if they are also a problem for you.
If you don’t actually have candida, there is no need to do a specific candida diet.
A candida diet can be pretty “challenging” from what I have heard from other forum members – so I would only do it if you HAVE to do it and have NO choice in the matter.
Most medical doctors will say that candida does not exist, so you will probably have to get tested with a naturopath. This normally involves things like: your history including past illnesses, antibiotic use, past and current diet, lifestyle stresses, blood test, urine and stool examination, analysis of skin. In severe cases you may even require an endoscopy.
I did an online questionnaire for candida a while ago and it came back a borderline score. But I contribute most of my issues to IBS/IBD. So I suggest you don’t self-diagnose on this one, get candida ruled in or out properly by a professional to be sure.
In regards the juice: blueberry or cranberry juices from a bottle or carton (or concentrate) are normally overloaded with added refined sugar. And even if they are not, juices from a bottle or carton are nutrient-dead. So hope you are juicing fresh raw blueberries and cranberries?
I am getting lots of compliments lately on how fantastically healthy my skin looks. The only thing I am doing differently from normal is pomegranate juice. According to a study done at the University of California, the most potent antioxidant juice is pomegranate.
For the past five weeks I have had 500mls of pomegranate and grapefruit juice (occasionally add watermelon) almost every day. Even a small P flare on my elbow from eating too much of the wrong thing, cleared up in a matter of hours. So I expect it is having a hugely beneficial effect on my skin. The only down side to this, is the time it takes to de-seed two pomegranates, but the finished drink tastes so fantastic that it is worth the effort.
The point of all this rambling is: do a bit of research and find out what fruits and vegetables have the highest antioxidants, as these antioxidants are hugely beneficial for skin rejuvenation, healing and repair. All of which is especially beneficial if you have psoriasis, eczema, acne, dermatitis, etc...
Good Luck
