Hi all, My name is Heather and I'm from Nelson New Zealand. I'm a nurse and got introduced to this diet by an american friend (Hi, Joann) The question I have is when I had been on the diet 6 days I started getting really bad mouth ulcers, has anyone else had this problem? is it a lack of something? or is it the candida virus not having sugar or yeast to feed on coming to the surface...my mouth? (Yuk!) As far as I know I don't have candida as I don't get cold sores (herpes) and that's usually a good sign that you have it in your system. I treated them with antiseptic mouth wash and they are going away now but I don't like the thought of them returning. Can anybody please help! Thanks Heather
