4/11/2016 7:03:47 AM | Hi Paul- I just wanted to chime in about the morning o's cereal - in my experience all cereal was off limits for me- i tried it again as I got healthier and it just was not life giving for me. I also know many folks from Lyme forums and many there stay away from all grains while the lining of the stomach heals - I also used eggs a lot during my first few months of healing! Have them less now - but They are a multivitamin for sure - I could list a bunch of my favorite foods - but you would still have to see what works for you - and I still tru and watch how much almond milk I have because the sugar adds up! Many times when we are hungry we are actually Feeding the parasites - or we are dehydrated - or we are nutritionally lacking! Because of the fungal load with Morgs - I believe many people start off with some level of malabsorption and have a very nutrient deficient body! And I live that the logos supplements are so bioavailable that they start feeding and nourishing -I hate promoting a brand like this - but it is the truth! During my healing - I also supplemented with beet powder - and powdered greens - and very early on I bought liver powder from now foods and put it in capsules with HCL! Wonderful! Wonderful!! But the logos vitamins feed your cells and in hindsight I see this more / and the protocol reduces parasites and helps your body resist better So for me at least - the appetite really became satiated - Never was a big eater - but I was a grazer - always snacked - but I see now I was likely needing to chew because of parasites. But that is for another post! Some top foods for me early on - were trader joes brown rice bread - thanks to Peter for that suggestion in a call archive! Toast and bread was a staple for me before I got sick (stupid that I would have toast as a meal - but I used to think fat free was good too - but now I eat healthy fats!!!) and so having brown rice bread early on really helped me change my habits- I eventually moved away from needing to have any toast and I eat more paleo style. Yeah - I think I am more paleo for sure now that things inside can process better and all that! But early on I also lived off of trader joes soy protein shakes - soy never bothers me and this low sugar organic non-gmo powder mixed with water and tasted fine! Not like cake batter - ha! The logos protein is super great -but was too expensive for me- I also bought whey isolate tablets online about five dollars from good n natural - and had some after yoga or when I needed them. Trader joes slow cooking grits were a nice option- I would make a supply for three days. Cottage cheese is a special item for me! And as you know there are many recipes here in the site! Oh - also - I made soups (lentil esp.) and drank kefir everyday- still do! Sometimes a whole jug - or just a few sips. I know most carbs should be off limits - but potatoes seemed to work with my body - sliced wedges baked - or mashed with butter - And I made trader joes organic popcorn with olive oil - and then added salt and butter - this was a dense meal for. Long time! Good snack for teens too - the butter and sea salt has many benefits - mmmm We have a homemade chili that I also enjoyed - but I also adjusted my life to calorie reduction and times of light fasting for things to work better - but it was amazing how cravings dissipated and how satiation sets in! I still get hungry, and have times I need to chow - but I am no longer a grazer -and one nice outcome of morgellons has been this contentment I feel! Back in 1993 I was trying to cleanse with Apple cider vinegar and thought I knew so much- ha! But it took me getting this horrid disease to really "see" that supplements are needed for most people - especially those with candida fungal issues - and to see that the small intestine is where so much immune function is based from- Our culture eats way too much sugar and most cereal is processed carb with little nutrients - it fills you up but does not give life! And so we all need to keep that in mind with the protocol costs - it feeds the cells and supplements meals and you slowly feel more satisfied! for me I ended up eating less because I was finally really getting nutrition! I also suggest following a candida-rid diet- look online for tips on that'- Hope that helps and hope you have a good week! Stay strong in your fight with this illness and when you are healed there will be many people you will share tips with- so as you explore new things each week - stay strong and may God bless you and your family - I know this is a nightmare - but it is not a death sentence and people do get healed - and you can too! It takes a while - it does require major life changes - but it is worth it! Take care |
