1. Salmon
Omega-3 fatty acids have both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. These essential fatty acids, which are found naturally in wild salmon, may help limit the growth of yeast. A daily dose of 0.4 to 2 grams of these essential fatty acids is typically recommended to help fight against candida overgrowth.1ND, Eric Bakker. ‘Is Fish Oil Good for Yeast Infections’, 22 June 2020. Yeastinfection.org, www.yeastinfection.org/is-fish-oil-good-for-yeast-infections. This equates to just one small serving size of salmon, which contains roughly 1.8 grams of omega-3 goodness.
Adding salmon to a candida diet is an excellent way to reduce an overgrowth, and wild or freshly caught salmon are healthier choices than farmed salmon.
