[Guest guest]

Regarding MS, this article explains the problem and research using the low-fat

vegan diet solution:

Here's an article explaining why the SAME low-fat vegan diet is the best way to

control diabetes:

It all comes back to the same root problem: our bodies need the right fuel to

run well, just like our cars. While you probably knew that, the concept that

low-fat vegan diet may be the " right " fuel can come as quite a surprise to

people like me who were raised on meat-and-dairy based diets! The research is

clear though, meat makes poor fuel for humans. Consuming non-human milk

products after the age of weaning is responsible for a host of common ailments.

Avoiding alcohol, caffeine and gluten can also be necessary. It's good to

increasingly cut down on these as quickly as possible to make withdrawal easier.

If it all seems just too radical initially, there's lots more well-researched

reading available. The benefits typically FAR outweight the loses.

All the best with making the changes...

Deborah, thanks for the welcome. Yes, I would really appreciate you

posting those websites for me. On top of everything else, we got a phone call

from hubby's primary care dr yesterday that the MRI that he had last Monday

and the lab work for the liver aren't looking very well and now he will

probably be scheduled for a endoscopy type test. I knew that this was the

right

group for us and we are really trying to work on health challenges here.

Jo, welcome to the group! You've come to the right place. I'm glad you

told us about your hubby's health issues too because we have GREAT news for

you!

 

As you will have noticed, this group supports vegan (no animal products)

diet as well as gluten-free. A low-fat, vegan diet has been conclusively

shown to put MS into remission. Like with avoiding gluten for those of us who

are sensitive to it, sticking to the low-fat vegan diet those with MS is

necessary... ie., it's not a " cure " for the condition per se but it does get

the symptoms under control and prevent more from developing. If you'd like

more information, I can post some websites for your assistance.

 

The same low-fat, whole foods vegan diet has also been repeatedly shown

over the past 20 years or so, to be MORE effective at controlling Diabetes

than the high-protein, low-carb diet that was the standard recommendation for

so many years. I will also happily post references for you on this, if

you'd like.

 

Gluten intolerance is also often associated with diabetes.

 

To get Candida under control, avoiding refined foods is essential,

particularly sugar and flour. You need to eat whole foods which tend to be

lower

on the Glycemic Index anyway (also of benefit for those with Diabetes), so

fortunately, the same low-fat gluten-free vegan diet would work for both of

you!

 

Wishing you all the best,

 

Deborah
