Candida is a fungal infection….it depends on where you have it but treatment is very easy…

If it’s in your mouth, it’s thrush and they have an oral medication. If it’s on your feet, it’s athlete’s foot which can be treated with a powder or cream.

Otherwise, Flagyl is an oral antibiotic used to treat fungal infections. Sometime in as little as on dose.

Call your MD.

Some foods, especially acidic foods, interfere with the absorption of oral medications. Grapefruit especially alters the uptake of many drugs. If you’re not taking oral meds though the only thing I can think of is that they would like you to have a lower glucose level to help get rid of the candida (it feeds on glucose in the vag secretions). I wouldn’t worry about it too much; however, eating yogurt with live cultures will help repopulate your gut with beneficial bacteria. Gross as it may sound, a little PLAIN yogurt with live cultures applied directly to the area in question (possibly at bedtime, then showered off in the morning) will help to get your vaginal flora back in balance as well.
