Hi,
I am looking for suggestions on how to gain weight. Since starting the detox/protocol I have lost 30 pounds. I was not heavy to begin with (maybe 10 lbs over at best). I know that MANY people with Morgellons put on weight. But I am now desperate to gain some weight. I am doing shakes everyday wit whey protein (I am using ice cream), I take logos L-Gutamine 2x's per day. I do have a numer of food allergies...bananas, eggs, seafood.
Any suggestions would be greatly apprecited.
Thanks

The tests mentioned can't test for Morgellons per se, but they can uncover specific mineral or nutrient deficits, metabolic malfunctions, or the presence of biofilms. The tests are not likely to change much about your treatment plan early on, but once you are in recovery mode, they could be helpful to isolate where your remaining problem areas are.

If you have insurance that will cover their cost, they would be useful to monitor your progress and clarify the underlying causes of any setbacks.

I much prefer milk-derived whey protein (isolate, not concentrate) over soy because it is the cleanest, most comprehensive source of amino acids available anywhere. Soy protein is plagued with delayed allergy problems, and soy is also estrogenizing, which may contribute to hormonal imbalance.

The only good soy is fermented soy...the way it has been used for centuries in Eastern cultures.

L-glutamine is a single amino acid that feeds the lining of the gut, helps with sugar cravings and prevents muscle wasting. It is used by athletes to help build muscle mass and decrease recovery time after workouts. Natural health seekers use it primarily to restore digestive integrity.

As stated above, we usually start people on the L-glutamine and then graduate them to Whey Pro Isolate, which contains the full spectrum of amino acids and offers greatly expanded benefits.

As with many other things (and as Deb2 pointed out), too much too fast of a good thing can be bad, so take it easy... you want to feed your body's metabolism, not choke it.
