This may be related: about 7 years ago, I tried one of those diets to combat Candidiasis - (no sugar, processed foods, or yeast products, greater consumption of green tea, fish, and carbs without yeast), and took supplements. Some of the supplements included, garlic, charcoal, caprylic acid, and acidophilus.
Even though my doctor told me at the time that "there is no such thing as candida infection," I felt really good while on this diet, not great - I still had depression, anxiety, etc. but it was definitely more controlled. Ultimately, I just couldn't keep it up. The diet and regimen was taxing and costly in monetary terms. But once I stopped the diet, I noticed a definite increase in depression. I also started drinking beer again, which may have fueled it.
