Rebecca says:

"So who am I and what do I know about Candida? Let's just say that what I lack in professional experience and qualifications, I certainly make up for in personal understanding! Besides, my dear friend and Qualified Nutritionist, Katherine Dempsey, has been my mentor throughout my own personal journey and has validated everything I have stated in my book.

At the age of thirty five, I was finally diagnosed with Candida. I didn't have a clue what it was as I had never heard of it before, but I didn't care as it meant that there was actually a name for what was wrong with me and my mental health was no longer in question. My new found elation was soon dashed when I was told what I had to do to get rid of the thing! All I heard was: 'This is what you can't eat anymore.' It was a negative right from the start. I love my food and to be told that one of the only things that could improve my current state of misery was to be taken away from me, I began to wonder whether life was actually worth living. I thought I had reached rock bottom as it was, but now this?

When I was taken through the process of the Candida diet and then informed that as the Candida was dying, my symptoms would actually be more exacerbated (known as the 'Herxheimer Reaction') and I would start to feel worse before I got better, I couldn't believe my ears! Was there anything positive to come out of this? Six years on, yes there was and my book is going to tell you exactly what."
