Red meat or salmon with low carb vegis, and fruit, works for me, but I am a cheater and when I cheat I can feel it. BUT since I've started Liver Flushing 3 months ago I can eat more junk food. The following seems to work really well for me, when I stick to it. If I cheat it is my favorite tasty treats. I Don't waste a cheat on something I don't really like. If you are slightly hungry I believe your are like an animal "on the hunt". Your mind is sharp and you are full of energy. That's when you are most productive. Once you eat you are dull and ready to rest.


1. Before lunch - Multi Fiber and green drink(barley grass powder) with Vitamins and
fish oil. Or 1 to 3 pieces of fruit only if I get hungry. When
I'm working out heavily some times I feel my body wants to have
protien, and it is usually 5 eggs with some OJ.

2. Lunch - Meat and low carb vegis maybe a piece of fruit

3. Snack - maybe a piece of fruit

4. Dinner - Meat and low carb vegis

I can't leave out a little exercise. It makes a huge difference also.

There is a little oddness in our family history of gut issues. 3 of my uncles, 2 cousins, and I have all had very wacky gut issues: some of us had migraines, some IBS, some thyroid issues etc.... And all have tested negative on the IGA and IGG Celiac tests. But we have all improved drastically after cutting out gluten.
At the same time, though, my thyroid issue has not gone away. I am regulated on Synthroid, but I still have active antithyroid antibodies. So my immune system is still definitely screwy.
My fatigue pretty much disappeared after I started taking Synthroid at at the outset. In fact, I have trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep. (as opposed to sleeping 12 hours a day like I did when hypothyroid.) But every once in a while, I hit a wall and just crash, desperate need for sleep.
I also fluctuate between freezing cold, (most of the time) and having crazy hot flashes.
I also have premature Drusen, deposits in my eyes that are precursors to macular degeneration, and have had scattered granulomas in my lungs, that have since disappeared.
So truly still screwy! I really need to get my immune system into shape before my body destroys itself.

As to what symptoms were helped by gluten-free diet: 1)I stopped having migraines, 2)stopped having horrid cramps and diarrhea (I used to spend hours on the toilet sweating and cramping). I used to swing wildly from diarrhea to constipation. Now, though, I have a sluggish gut, so constipation issues., But I hope I can work those out too.
3)my anemia improved (still marginal, but not so constantly low anymore.)
