Green foods are important. Very important. But/And what people don’t realize is that just as important are your purple foods! The best purple foods are the foods that are purple inside and out. Purple foods are extremely anti-fungal, and per my messaging, fungus in our diet and in our system directly leads to inflammation and disease. I want to share a great diet to decrease fungus in our bodies, to keep anti-oxidized and as healthy as possible! Antibiotics treat bacteria, but fungal overgrowth is the cause of most problems, and antibiotics – at best – do nothing for fungus, and can make the fungal overgrowth worse. Purple foods such as raw cranberries and purple cabbage are more anti-fungal than pharmaceutical anti-fungals. They are also directly related to better health, are extremely anti-aging and rejuvenating.
First: Let’s look at Fungus in our system.
Fungal overgrowth is the primary cause of most sinus and prostate infections and skin rashes and acne. A fungal overgrowth in the body can mimic many diseases, such as diabetes, sinusitis, eczema, digestive disorders, and even cancer. And many times, we unknowingly take antibiotics or other prescription medications that make our symptoms worse. Fungal overgrowth is caused by all the hidden sugars and grains that we eat – such as wheat, corn, white potatoes, white rice, cow’s milk artificial sweeteners, and sugars primarily.
Follow the following diet 5xs a week for the first month, then you may decrease to 3-4xs a week.
• eat a heaping fistful of raw cranberries (fresh or frozen – but if they are frozen thaw them out first). You can purchase these from Whole Foods or any grocery store.
• eat a heaping fistful or more (about 1/8 – 1/4) head of purple cabbage
• drink 1 ounce of pure undiluted Acai juice (make sure there is NO sugar added) *if you can’t find pure undiluted Acai juice, then sometimes you can find Acai juice diluted with blueberries (make sure, again NO sugar added. Do NOT buy Acai juice with grape or any other juice (due to the high sugar content). If the Acai juice that you find is diluted with blueberries – you need 2 ounces per day vs. 1 ounce.
If you prefer to combine the juice with all the other ingredients together, that’s completely fine. However, make sure you eat the PULP of the juice, as this is where the anti-fungal ingredients are concentrated.
Remember: Follow the following diet 5xs a week for the first month, then you may decrease to 3-4xs a week.
