I, too, am hypoglycemic and there is no question that the IBS diet is not ideal for this condition. For example, the refined foods (white flour, white rice) that are recommended for IBS are high in sugar, which aren't good if you suffer from low blood sugar.
What I do is follow Heather's diet rules (not her recipes) and I eat the white bread and white rice even though they're high in sugar. However, by eating small amounts of food often, my blood sugar remains quite stable. I eat Basmatic white rice, which I think is better for hypoglycemia than other white rice varieties.
Did the doctor diagnose you with the candida and parasites, or was it a naturopath? I would be very sceptical if it wasn't a doctor. However, if it was a doctor, what type of parsites did s/he say you have? Some parasites can present symptoms that very similar to IBS and, if you go through the gruelling antibiotic course to treat them, your IBS symptoms could disappear.
