  • What causes the gluten intolerance in lyme patients? by acrosstheveil   20 h  38  Lyme ("Lime") / CFS, ME, C / Diet & Nut / 4 / 5 / 6
     
    Almost everyone i have talked to with lyme tests negative for celiac yet cannot eat gluten, dairy, soy, artificial sweeteners, etc. what is the root cause of the gluten intolerance? I have been gluten free for years with not much improvement due to cross-contamination in the environment. I can even react just driving down the road and passing a (nasty) fast food place. ... ... ... I wish there was some supplement or herb that I could take which would reverse the reaction.

      Info I found informative. Very technical / informational– Dr to Drs about celiac & gluten-free. If I understand correctly, one who is sensitive can NEVER EVER think they can have a hint of gluten, thanks to our “memory cells”. Yet the video says we must heal the damage in the gut. So much for the thought of an occasional donut… Yet after 9 months (did not take any supplements mentioned in video), I can tolerate granola one day a week, breaded chicken or fish without arthritis pain.

      A couple of very helpful supplements for depression are SAMe and 5HTP. 5THP got me through some very rough times where I was obviously low in seratonin. Pulled me out of it very fast. SAMe is a great mood enhancer and can be somewhat energizing if you are low in energy.   [End]

        for sleep, my naturopath told me to make my room a safe zone. Unplug all electronics even the light. Then have some white noise always going. White noise helps a lot.

        Yes, there are. Many AF patients I see have no signs or symptoms of jaw clicking or popping or TMJ. I’ve found it to be very commonly associated with nervous tension, anxiety and stress more so than with anything else, whether it be candida, AF, whatever. Not all folks with TMJ have AF, but a lot do. ... ... Stress and especially emotional tension commonly creates tension around the mouth, jaw and facial muscles, and is probably one of the most common cause (of all) when it comes to tension headaches. And tension headaches account easily for 80% of all headaches I’ve seen in the clinic.   [End]

        I understand what you are saying and it is very smart to learn to make connections like this.

When you start to put all the pieces together, everything starts to make a lot more sense.

I’m trying to figure out what I should focus my treatment on. So, does the POTS cause the adrenals to become fatigued, resting heart-rate when standing is 120-140. That would cause anybody to be tired, as the heart is working so hard. Or, does the adrenal fatigue cause POTS??

              I agree with a lot of what he says, just a few things I don’t. It will help you learn mindfulness if that’s what you’re looking for. On the other side, it trains you to disconnect from your body. That is the opposite of what you want to do. When you combine not feeling your body and lowering stress, you don’t feel the symptoms as much. This shouldn’t be mistaken as healing though. Focus on the mindfulness and meditation aspects of it is what I’d recommend.   [End]

    Animals Terrorized By Journeys to and in Slaughterhouse Secrete Massive Amounts of Adrenalin ... ... This adrenalin is a long enzyme chain... only some of whose ... links are broken by cooking.

    • This isn't the Vegan forum. by North   86 days  321
       
      This isn’t the Vegan forum. You have posted several times with this, it smacks of simply trying to force people over to your opinion. If you truly would like people to consider trying a vegan diet to see if it helps their adrenal fatigue, you may get more response if you post it with your own case history, and did eliminating meat from your diet help your own adrenal fatigue, etc. ... ... I know several people with AF who have tried vegan, and did not improve. Maybe you did, that’s great - then post that. And if you’ve never had read adrenal fatigue, then this isn’t really the forum for you. ... ...   [retrieve this message]
  • the cure has been found!!! =) by willtheory   87 days  1,388  CFS, ME, CFIDS / AIDS Suppo / Depression / 4 / 5 / 6
     
    Brothers! Sisters! The cure has been found. You may or may not believe me, that is up to you, but I’m here to tell you how I’m curing my health problems, including chronic fatigue, parasites, depression, and heart problems and how this means the end of this journey for all of you. A diet that has 50% raw vegetables and fruits can help alot. Sunlight can help alot. Walking barefoot on the ground for grounding can help alot. Exercise can help alot, walking, running, pushups, squats, etc. Allopathic medicine can help alot sometimes. All these herbs, supplements, and devices can help alot. But ...   [retrieve this message]

      I have had ME/CFIDS for over 50 years. I don’t know of anyone who has ever had this problem solved. ... ... In recent years, I find many people who claim to have this disease never got any testing done. ... ... What tests have you had done to indicate whether you have the disease ? ... ...   [End]

        I know a lot of people who have had CFIDS ”solved” or ”cured.” I don’t think this is the cure, but I do know some who had their conditions reversed. Sometimes, people swear they are trying to get better, but they aren’t. I have a roommate like that. She eats nothing healthy, way too much saturated fat and processed foods, and is about 100 lbs. overweight, but she won’t listen to anyone who tells her that if she ate better, exercised, lost weight and generally lived a better lifestyle, she would get better. She just sits on her bed complaining about being tired and woofs down boxes of proce ...   [retrieve this message]

          For me chronic fatigue is not a diagnosis, it is what it is. Chronic fatigue. A symptom. I had it. Now its gone. The end. Qigong works. Works better than diet, exercise, supplements, anything.   [End]

      Chemicals the doctors hand out for mega bucks cure nothing and add to the toxic overload the body is already dealing with. The body must be cleansed. Cancer itself is not the disease but is a symptom of another condition called acidosis. when the blood needs minerals to maintain the 7.365 ph it has to have the body robs those minerals from the cells and when the cells get depleted mutations start to occur and those mutations can be cancer. Adding minerals is needed, alkalizing is necessary and nothing alkalizes better than green vegetables , nothing does it better than juice combined with ...   [retrieve this message]
  • Last week of internship and everything is falling apart. Help! by Maverick494   87 days  423  Relationship / Depression / Stress / 4
     
    I have a problem. Basically the world is crumbling beneath my feet. ... ... I have studies at Uni to finish, I’m in my last week of my internship and everything is going to hell. I really need some advice or at least a listening ear. ... ... This is my situation: I am currently living at home, in the country where my parents live (not the USA) with my chronically ill, rapidly deteriorating mom. ... My dad lost his job and has heart and liver problems, ... My brother has Down’s syndrome and also lost his job, last week. ... ...

      I am so very sorry that you and your family are going through some very hard times. ... ... What I didn’t see in your post is if your family has contacted social services. If not, I strongly urge you to do so. I can understand the reluctance to ask for assistance---especially monetary assistance---however, it’s there to be used as a safety net. You and your family certainly would NOT be abusing it. ... ... Your dad lost his job. You mention that his unemployment benefits will run out soon. He should be looking for a job---any job---as long as it is honest work and he can physically do the job. ...   [retrieve this message]

      WOW! I say that not because of the situation you are facing, but because of the unselfish & courageous strength, discipline and character you have. I could only imagine the unrelenting pressure you must feel, yet you keep going. Most people would only complain and look for a way out, instead you are only focused on a way through. You must stop for a moment and pat yourself on the back. The world is truly a better because of people like you. Life is not exactly fair, but good things do come to those who work for them. First remember that this will not last forever. ... ... As far as this tempora ...   [retrieve this message]
