How I Cured Morgellons Forum Response

Hello all,

Ok this will be a food posting and a long one. First I will answer Susan and Nancy.

I did not have any dairy at all including yogurt. Look for substitutes. Someone mentioned finding an almond yogurt. Avoid anything ending in ose- sucrose, lactose, etc. And never corn. Even organic non-GMO I would avoid.
I relied on cooked, roasted vegetables a lot, especially in winter. I did have and still have a salad each day made with all raw veggies.

For salad dressing I mainly use olive oil and lemon juice with any spices added depending on the salad. I don't use much apple cider vinegar but I think it's ok.

So . . . today I spent 2 hours making food for the week. And I gave myself that 2 hour window so that I would be finished when my sister, who is caring for me while I recover, came to throw out all the leftovers.

I looked in my fridge and here's two recipes from what I salvaged.

SALMON BURGERS
1 lb or less of cooked salmon
bunch of dill
chives or minced onion
cilantro or coriander
salt, pepper, lemon juice to taste

Mix in food processor, then mound into patties, roll in bread crumbs ( or substitute) and cook on both sides in olive oil.

ENCHILADAS
tortillas made without flour
black beans, chili
cooked vegetables such as onions, red or green peppers
Chicken cooked (optional)
brown rice or quinoa
cilantro
lime juice

Roll mixture up in tortillas place in baking pan and cover with salsa
bake for 35-40 minutes at 400.

Not to brag, but as good as anything you will taste in a restaurant. If you are not used to spending a lot of time cooking, you can learn. And if you cook for the week, once, you can freeze some for others meals. Get yourself a food processor and a blender - you can always get 2nd hand ones n thrift stores.

I got an Edible Arrangement delivered to me and froze a lot of this fruit to use in my breakfast smoothies.
They vary, but here's what I pick from to use:
almond/coconut milk
almonds
chia, flax, sunflower, pumpkin, hemp seeds
unsweetened coconut
I can eat sugar now so I put in berries, any fruit such as apple, peach or pear
sometimes I throw in a carrot or beet.
Always some greens such as spinach or kale
cinnamon, stevia, cocoa powder to taste

So for those struggling with all the food restrictions while facing this disease, try to make at home the foods you love. Adapt recipes to make them protocol-friendly.

I will never tell you this journey is easy.

But today I did all this cooking with . . .drumroll please . . .ONE HAND!

All of us are doing this with different challenges - some with children or unsympathetic family/friends, or lack of money, but I am here to say that you can beat this.

Just know that if you are not following ALL parts of the protocol instructions completely, you may not get better.
It's all up to you.

Stay Strong!

Ellen
