Tea and constipation and thanks

February 18, 2011

Thanks again Bee. On the subject of tea. I have a tea that is just made of

Herbs. Is that ok? it's Tisane. After all it's just hot water and herbs. It's

for digestion. Also, can I buy Flaxseed powder for constipation or do I make it

myself from the seeds. I doubt it as they are quite agressive. I was reading

your article on constipation, but it's not clear on how to make it.. If I have

it for a few days, I get very tired, with more than the usual aches in my limbs;

toxins probably and as I also suffer from Fibromylgia and a pinched disc, some

days it feels like every nerve in my body is painful, walking is painful as I

have pain under my feet and pelvic area running down my legs. I think it is

siatica, but not sure.as the doctors tell me that Fibromylgia pain isn't in the

feet and their are vague about where siatica pain extends to.

It's very helpful reading everyone's experiences as I have been really afraid

to eat more eggs and fats (cholesterol levels). Even though I have read most of

your site, and it makes sense, it's still difficult to embrace all the new

ideas, and give up on the old information we have been fed in the past,

especially the fiber and cholesterol lies, and with my friends thinking I'm

insane with my new ideas.. All my beliefs have been turned upside down, but I

think I will take the chance and up my already increased intake of eggs and

protein.. I can't believe I have given up almost all my bad habit foods but

still get a craving for cakes and a glass of wine, living as I do in this land

of pastries and wine!. .Does any one else feel the same?

Nuala

+++Hi Nuala. I don't think anyone needs to do it more than 1 time per day.

+++All tea is the same, so drinking rooibos tea is the same as drinking any kind

of tea. Only have 2 cups per day of any kind of tea.

Hi Nuala,

to respond to your question if others feel as you do--

I hardly have any cravings for sweets anymore. I do, however, still long

for red wine and beer!

The social part is the hardest for me. It's not easy for me to explain the

science behind all this to people, and even harder to figure out how to eat

around other people. Also I have many friends who are into yoga, etc, and

they think eating meat is wrong. But I lived for many years following

mainstream dietary advice, including vegetarianism, and it didn't work for

me like Bee's diet is. So it's definitely worth the effort!

Good luck!

+++Hi Nuala. Tisane means it is an herbal infusion. Typically, herbal teas can

be made with fresh or dried flowers, leaves, seeds or roots, generally by

pouring boiling water over the plant parts and letting them steep for a few

minutes. So Tisane can be made from any plants. All herbs are diuretic.

+++You should never have flaxseed since it is high in fiber which is very

damaging to your digestive system.

+++Fibromyalgia simple means muscle pain, which is very common for unhealthy

people since toxins make the muscles ache and hurt. As you progress on this

program body will become better able to detoxify like it should, so your muscle

pains will decrease like they have for many others.
