Stopped because of the reaction. You really need to think about doing a cleanse....even if it is just a 3 day organic juice cleanse. It could definitely be that I had an inferior quality brand with a bunch of additives, but considering I can't take even small amounts of organic white or green tea, I have a feeling it would be the same regardless. Get spirulina from Hawaii (organic) it will be much different.. or better yet total nutrition. Also make yourself some total tonic.. Do you ever take garlic cloves? How about cayenne?I eat both organic and not organic. Depends on what's available and the cost. My vegies are all the non-starchy ones. Lots of leafy greens, broccoli, asparagus, onions, garlic, herbs...basically all your salad ingredients. Getting in lots of vegies is never a problem. I severly limit my fruit intake though because of my reaction to it. I do have about a cup of certified organic cranberry juice a day, that's just cran. concentrate and water. I eat pineapple at night, for those enzymes, and have an apple and orange maybe once or twice a week. Every so often I'll eat other fruit, but it's not regular. My supplements are what I really need to work on. I get all my supplements from Trader Joe's. Not sure if you know of it, but they have a good reputation for quality food and vitamins.Try total nutrition and dragon snot recipe. I want to start replacing store bought supplements with many of the natural ones in the files, and will as soon as money allows. For now, I'm broke, and my mom buys our supplements. I take C, CoQ10, EFA, potassium, St. John's Wart, folic acid, calcium/magnesium/zinc, chondroitin/glucosamine, msm. I use the papaya seeds and pineapple for natural supplement, as well as powdered kelp for B vitamins. I will switch to lemon egg for calcium as I have what I need for that. I think it's Panther Piss, with the molasses, that I wanted to switch to as well for iron, but with so much sugar from the molasses Make sure you have ORGANIC black strap molasses and ORGANIC apple cider vinegar and you wont have to worry about the sugar factor here.. also take 400mg of Vit E with each doseI'm sure I'll have a problem. It's these types of things that get in the way. Sugary substitutes, or power foods such as algae(which I really want for the protein)I'm having trouble substituting because of my reaction. With organic you should be okayMy favorite is salmon, and I believe it's either Atlantic or Chilean. As long as it's not farmed, is there a health difference in fresh water or sea fish? I eat halibut, tuna, and some others as well, but stay away from all shell fish because of the destructive methods used to capture them. I would actually like to stop eating fish altogether, even though I love it, but it's been a vital source of protein so are organic sprouted almonds... that doesn't cause adverse side effects for me like so many other foods do. I need to find a good alternative before giving it up. Which is why I posted :)Thanks so much for your reply. I haven't called Doc yet because while some of the issues I'm having aren't very common, they're not too rare either.Doc can handle the uncommon stuff, trust me. Never be afraid to make the call. We can help but he can do a whole lot better and get you on a regimen to heal you.. I thought some of the people here could help without my going straight to him first. If not, I will surely give him a call. H.K.Suzi Finance Tax Center - File online. File on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
