blood thinners/constipation/coconut milk?

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I have three questions for Bee and the group:

1. Several years ago I had a mole removed and bled more than the

dermatoligist thought was normal. At the time, I was taking 2g of fish

oil/day. I am concerned about all the things that I am taking now, that

act as blood thinners,-fish oil, cod liver oil, garlic, vitamin e...and

maybe some of the others too? Should I be concerned?

2. I am not able to go to the bathroom without help. I tried, and was

sucessful, with lots of extra vitamin C and magnesium. I'm just not

sure that this protocol would be ok on a regular basis. I'm feeling

very bloated and uncomforable. Any other suggetions to help regularity?

3. I see that coconut milk is on the no-no list and am just curious as

to why.

Thanks...Jordan

+++Hi Jordan. I do not think you need to be concerned. If you were

only taking fish oil before, without taking other nutrients which are

co-factors to it, i.e. vitamins A, D, & E, along with " good " fats,

minerals, etc. it may have contributed to bleeding, but on this

program you'll get them. No nutrients work in isolation of others,

so everything on this program works together.

+++No one who has done this program has ever reported bleeding

problems. If you are taking drugs to thin the blood, you should

inform your doctor so the drug can be lowered or your intake of some

supplements lowered.

+++There are 2 main reasons you can become constipated:

1) You lowered your carbs too quickly, without also increasing

your " good " fats, and possibly ate too much protein in the meantime.

It is easy to eat more protein, but difficult to increase fats

because they are antifungal. " Curing Candida, How to Get Started "

cautions people: " If your protein intake was high you might need to

lower it temporarily until you can increase your fats enough. If

there are not enough fats in ratio to proteins it will cause

constipation. If you increase protein without good fats you can also

get sick, including an upset stomach. It is more important to get

your fat ratios up to recommended levels than to increase protein too

fast. Keeping the correct ratios of fats to proteins will become more

important as you lower your carbs. "

2) If you've had constipation in the past your body will retrace such

episodes according to Hering's Law of Cures - search my website.

+++Coconut milk contains too much natural sugars.
