Debbie - Thanks, I agree with you when it comes to an elimination diet, Ive had to eliminate All dairy and Gluten, I have noticed in the past Corn chips, sugar, chocolate give me problems as well, I tend to do well on veggies (Cruciferous and other veggies). Oh yeah GP's (docs) haven't helped me come off, the last doc said that I'm on such a low dose...

Jmg, Are you Jewish? I was thinking of learning Hebrew at some point anyway, there is a fungus called Jews Ear which is probably called black fungus in the west, I think the reason was that Judas hung himself from that species of tree that the fungus grows on and it looks just like an ear, anyway I like that and put in the hotpot, I think it supposed...

A good diet for avoiding type 2 diabetes
Gerald replied to cristiana's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I'd love to go low carb and higher fat, the problem is that my triglycerides are too high, LDL too high and so want to go vegan, I am on a low carb type diet at the moment but high cholesterol/Triglyceride markers AND high Glucose markers too!!! Stopped all those Gluten free cakes and products, too high in sugar and bad carbs I think -
Im thinking of going vegan or vegetarian as well, Dr Grieger suggest that meat ups inflammation I used to make bone broths with lamb/fish/chicken and possibly pork bones and had autoimmune type symptoms (Burning red ear - only the cartilage area), I purchased Collagen and tied it only once and had the same reaction (I assume they get...

ARCHIVED That darn corn !
Gerald replied to Awol cast iron stomach's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Ennis-TX, Being Sicilian I miss spaghetti, lasagna and know how you feel, we have to adapt and create a diet that are parents probably didnt eat, I have reached the point of avoiding all processed foods and prepare and cook my own food, for me its the safest way, I can get by without corn but love baked beans, yummy, beansdon't bother me so Im happy... -
ARCHIVED That darn corn !

Corn has definitely given me problems and I just avoid it now, I ate Gluten Free corn chips and felt the effects of allergy and the list of food can eat have shrunk considerably. -
ARCHIVED Can Those With Milk Protein Allergy Drink Kefir?
Gerald replied to carriej82's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I purchase kefir grains from wholefoods and use coconut water and after two days its ready to drink, I can't be 100% sure though about another person level of casein reactions, the cheese in gluten free lasagnas make me have terrible mucus, coconut yogurt also can be purchased at wholefoods as well. -
GFinDC, Oh definately I agree with what you and Kareng are saying, no more coffee or any type of enema, after 8000plus in 8 to 9yrs, I'm finished with them, they became an addiction and I didnt do them cause of constipation but because I wanted to help detoxify cause I was taking Paxil and Prilosec long term, as well as speeding up a sluggish liver,...

Kareng, Thanks Karen for your concern, I'm willing and open to listening to the reasons why coffee enemas may have affected my small intestine and whole digestive system, and how VitC, B complex and various supplements could be detrimental to my health, is this what you are suggesting? I agree, even with the supplements seeing as the liver has to clear...

Jmg, I can drink organic chicken bone broth, my wife is Chinese and she told me to boil the whole chicken, what I waa doing was making a meal for the family, i.e. roast chicken and then keeping the bones and making a soup only out of the bones and added organic chicken egg shells and use apple cider vinegar to break down the bone and shell but when I...
-
Kareng, You make fair points when it comes to taking all those supplements and various diets, I should go to a qualified nutritionist but I have a sneaky feeling I know as much as they do (Will still go and see one), for example the reason I take L-Glutamine is because it helps to heal the gut and Quercetin is supposed to tighten the junctions in the...

Hello GFinDC, May I ask you (and others) I did coffee enemas for 9years DAILY (I know, thats over the top) but was thinking that bile is released and flows into the duodenum/small intestine, bile is slightly corrosive right? And so the enemas may have damaged my duodenum/small intestine?, as well as bad bacteria possibly migrating from a chronic...

Hello JMG, Thanks for your reply, you are right about the long letter, when I showed the Chinese doc she was overwhelmed and I'd emailed her the morning of my afternoon appointment The reason I stopped eggs (I love eggs and one natural health doc told me eggs are very good for the liver - i.e. Choline, Glycine, B Vitamins etc., but could be problematic...

Hello Kareng, the Gluten and dairy problems are elf diagnosed but Im sure I have a problem in this area, maybe leaky gut or SIBO etc, cause when I eat Gluten (Wheat, Rye, Barley etc) I sneeze my brains out, the roof of the mouth hurts, runny nose, itchy red eyes and sometimes night sweats. I do have actual diagnoses for GERD/Hiatus Hernia, Gallbadder polyps...

Here's a history of my problems 20yrs ago started taking Paxil and Prilosec for depression and GERD/Hiatus Hernia Round about the same time doc told me I have a benign condition called Gilberts Syndrome which means bilirubin levels are higher than normal in liver function tests (sluggish phase two detox I think) About 9 years ago...
