    Hi there, was down with a headache for days due to a stupid salad dressing I tried in a restaurant last friday. No more restaurant eating for me for the next six months or so !! Have been reading up a bit: To nmr, I used to also get extremely fatigued after eating. I felt it happened almost no matter what I had, but naturally more so if I...

    ARCHIVED Fasting

    Ms Jan replied to Ms Jan's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut

    Hi Lovey, Thanks for the comments and the link - I had heard a bit about this method to fight cancer, only I didn't know the name of it, so it was interesting to read more. Anyhow, you're totally right about the nutrition. wasn't thinking of fasting only on water again. that was simply too tough, and today my health isn't strong enough to go through...

    ARCHIVED Fasting

    Ms Jan posted a topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut

    Hi , Just wondering if anyone ever tried fasting as a way of overcoming leaky gut, candida or other related problems ? Many years back, I did a one week water fast, and though the aim at the time was weight loss (which I cannot recommend, since I put on even more weight right afterwards), it did clear out for good my psoreasis and other strange...

    Hi Janeti, Good suggestions from others. Just want to add that having battled candida/leaky gut for three years without success, because no one found the gluten connection until 3 months ago - that definately there's a connection. Since I went on the SCD/no dairy/no sugar 3 weeks ago while at the same time rotating natural anti-fungals, I've begun...

    I was just talking with someone today about wild oregano and he emphasized the importance of taking probiotics if you are taking the oregano, the oregano will kill good and bad bacteria and the probiotics are needed to repopulate the good bacteria. He recommended a book by Jeanie Patel called "Listen to Your Gut". Apparently it is very important to use...

    Hi Mia, Thanks for the explanation as to the enzymes of raw fruit/veggies. Nice to know why it works. Wow, yes, I almost forgot about the nausea already. but yes, that I've suffered from a lot too, and it's much worse than one imagines. makes you want to run far away ... Really sorry to hear how badly hit by this whole thing you are. Seems...

    Hi Ali, Thanks. I started taking magnesium for anxiety and attention deficit, and it actually seems to have helped calm me and keep me concentrated. Only I think you're right that the dose was too much. So now I've cut down, and it's already helping. What immediate reactions the body has ... quite a marvel actually ! The vomiting was before...

    Hi DMarie, I tried homeopathy years ago for my joint pains. No effect at all. However, my ex boyfriend took it extensively for liver problems and swore to the positive effects. Also, I have a close friend who says it helped her a lot with candida. As to the mucus, have you tried echinacea or oil of oregano? Must be extracted without alcohol, and make...

    Hi there - sorry if I have overlooked something already said - I haven't read up on the entire string, so I don't know if you can have grape fruits, but if you can, they're delicious in a smoothie. Also lime or lemon can be used. These days I blend a cup of water with a peeled cucumber and one peeled grapefruit as my base, then add one or two things...

    Just wish to thank everyone for advice. This was really helpful. I'm working on it ... Jan

    Thank you ! Yes, this sure is a long and interesting thread. Have tried to read up on it: lots of interesting info and advice to pick up on ... And the SCD diet is surely doing wonders for me

    Hi Gentleheart, I recently switched from Colgate sensitive to a more natural toothpaste, Tom's Natural antiplaque with propolis & myrrh (found it in Martin's). It doesn't contain fluoride, but I just saw that it contains xylitol, so I don't know if it woud work for you. Anyhow, you can check their other products on www.tomsofmaine.com . But if...

    Hi Everyone, Thanks for the support and good advices ! Yes, I think there's no doubt that I'll have to wean myself from the coffee. I'll try to do it through changing into caffeine free first, and then see if I can find another more healthy 'bell' that can bring me into a good writing mode ... Know you're right, AliB, that it's a lot about habit...

    Thanks - B-12 shots sounds like a good idea. So far I have only emergency health coverage here in the US, but I'll see if I can work out something with a dr locally. And decaf coffee might definately improve the coffee situation. I had read somewhere that decaf had gluten in it, which is why I didn't dare drink it. But I gather if you have no problem...

    I am new to all of this and have a few questions that I hope someone in this amazingly well informed forum can help me with ... After a life time of health problems, such as arthritis, fatigue, weak immune system etc, and five years of debilitating headaches and digestive problems (would throw up 72 hrs at a time, even boiled water), I was finally diagnosed...

    Hi ilikepie, I'm new to this board, but I'll chip in here since I've had exactly the same problem with alcohol for many years. It all started with terrible night sweats whenever I had alcohol, then turned into those dreadful headaches, an undescribable pain making me unable to even watch tv or talk on the phone, then five years ago becoming 'poisoning...
