    Does anyone know about the brand of Chlorella called Yaeyama? Whole Foods didn't have anything but it, so we bought it, but I don't know if it's good or not. Anyone know?

    Yea, that's true! I always forget these things...thanks for the reminder! RPM, I understand about being so sick. It is really hard, and I'm 17 also. If my mom wasn't into alternative treatments, I'd be dead! My dad and stepmom still kinda doubt what I'm doing, because, well they're ignorant about these things. But at first, my mom refused to see...

    There weren't any, but it just seemed strange to us. The pills were different sizes even though it was the same dosage, etc. Yea, olive leaf extract is really great. It's everything Julie mentioned. Also, I read on LN that olive leaf extract (not just olive leaf, I guess there is a difference) actually can target Lyme. I'm only taking 4 a day...

    Thanks everyone. I will head to Whole Foods tomorrow and get some. My mom and I had an interesting experience with some olive leaf extract. We got my first bottle at my LLMD's office when we were up there, and then my mom decided she wanted to start taking it too, so she ordered it online. Well, it was the same brand and everything, but a couple things...

    Which brand does everyone take of chlorella? I think I have asked before, but I don't remember. I feel like I'm not detoxing well. I don't feel toxic, but I also don't know what that would feel like. I just want to make sure I don't get to the point where I feel extremely toxic and have to slow down on meds to detox my body. I want to just have maintenance...

    If you're meaning quinoa flakes, then yes, that's like oatmeal. But if you're meaning just plain quinoa, I like to make it with chicken broth. I think it's a 2:1 ratio, so, 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups chicken broth. It's reallllly good this way, I won't eat it any other way. For quinoa flakes, you can do cinnamon and agave (or maple syrup) with some apples...

    Carla, Thanks, I will. I have only been on it for 6 days. I herxed really badly on the Zith when I first started, but I had to push through it because it was Christmas Eve and it was day 5. But I also noticed that about a week into being on the Zith I get vivid nightmares, so there must be some sort of cycle there. Because it happened again this month...

    It may be time for a herx. I don't really know. I haven't herxed badly at all since I started the Mepron. It may take a while. I hate the heart/breathing stuff! Ugh, I feel like I'm dying, lol.

    Does anyone have shortness of breath and really a fast heart rate? I feel like I can't breath properly...it almost feels like when I had asthma and I was having an attack. It's not air hunger I don't think, unless air hunger can last for days and days.

    LOL! I would love to! That would be so much fun! It's really funny because my mom and I got into an argument tonight and to come here and read this was so fitting! Even though I wore my rainboots, I still managed to get really wet! LOL! I just think I'm not meant to be in the rain, lol!!! I don't play racquetball, but I would love to learn.

    Carla, Remember a while ago I mentioned that I wanted to wear my rain boots but it stopped raining and you thought it was funny because I live in LA and, well, it doesn't rain a lot here. Well, I got to wear them today!!! LOL! YAYYY! It's POURING rain here....like woah! Mango, :lol: Rachel, I agree with what you're saying, but there...

    Just FYI, a week is probably not long enough. I have been gluten-free since May of last year and I never noticed a correlation between my moods until I got glutened yesterday. I get really fatigued, anxious and depressed. My point is that it may take a little while longer for you to notice anything.
  13. confusedks
    I probably would have, but my friend told me they have butter in them! Ugh, oh well. LOL!
  14. confusedks
    Does anyone have the ingredients for the soup mix? I am going somewhere tomorrow and they are using it on a brisket, so I wanted to know if I can have it or not! Thanks!

    About the make-up, I agree with the Everyday Minerals. It's GREAT stuff! It's really funny because my stempmom works for Loreal Paris, she runs the whole salon division in New Zealand and I told her that I like mineral make-up and she was really offended! LOL! It was very funny!!! About the pot thing, I TOTALLY GET IT! My brother is now in rehab because...

    Sherry, I'm sorry you had a rough day, but it does sound like you had a great appt. It's interesting about the Celiac thing. My LLMD agrees with me about NOT going on a gluten challenge. Also, it will be an interesting conversation when we talk about the results that I had about me still getting gluten. It was off the charts high, like as high as someone...

    I have been gluten free for a while and lately we have a lot of family in town so we have been eating out a lot. Well, I am not only gluten but dairy, soy, sugar and starch free! It makes things VERY hard! I usually either get just plain grilled chicken and veggies or just a drink. Well, the problem with getting a drink only is that my family thinks I am...

    Paula, I agree about getting him checked out by an LLMD. I think that they're just really thorough doctors, and that's something most Dr's aren't! Carla, Thanks, I LOVE my new towels and bath mats, etc. Also, YAY on the braces! Birdy, I am sorry you're having a hard time with your parents. That really does suck. I understand....my mom...

    I'm sorry you had a bad experience too! I HATE ER's! They treat you like your medical problems aren't important. I went to the ER not too long ago because I had really low iron and my Hematologist told me to go, so I could get an iron IV and the Dr. said that anemia wouldn't cause exhaustion! She was such an idiot! I ended up leaving, after waiting in the...

    Unless you had Celiac! LOL! :lol: Yea, that's GREAT Carla you're working! So exciting! I actually have felt a lot better, like pretty functional 3-4 days a week, so it's nice. For me it's the B12 shots because my numbers were on the low side of normal, but now they're nice and high! Everyone, I still am feeling pretty nauseated from the yogurt...
  21. confusedks
    OMGsh! I did something terrible! :ph34r: I went to get frozen yogurt today with my friends after we went to color me mine. I am now paying miserably! Ugh! I was doing SO GREAT with no sugar/starch until that. Well, I guess at least it's gluten-free, df, sf. Sigh. And, my friend made me gluten-free cupcakes and I think I should just throw them away...

    So just an update on my new make-up! I love it! The trick to long-lasting coverage for me is the intensive foundation along with the finishing dust stuff. All day long I looked great! It was really nice, and my skin looked really amazingly clear.
  23. confusedks
    LOL! NO, that's not what I meant at all! I meant I used to buy whole bags of cookies and eat them all!!! LOL! I reachel almost EVERYTHING I eat!
  24. confusedks
    Yea, I did all the tests before I started any abx, so it was not a big deal. I don't know if I would want to get off of them for the test though. I don't remember it being really expensive, but I am probably just not remembering. Also, my mom paid. Everyone, Thanks for your replies. I guess maybe I am getting glutened all the time? I will try and...

    So I decided to watch Ina Garten on Food Network and she went on a trip to Paris. Well, stupid me...I was then getting really annoyed that I may not ever be able to go out of town and just eat whatever I want! LOL! I may not have Celiac, but since I am still reacting to gluten and it runs in the family, I am wondering if I do. Ugh, I used to travel all over...
