Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 > > Dear Bee, > Before being on your program, I had lots of digestive problems such as what doctors describe as gastrointestinal flus, as well as IBS, occasional constipation and diarrhea, but I have all my intestines. Before I found you and your program, I had a gallblader flush and several stones came out. A naturopath told me once that I must have diverticulitis, but I never had that confirmed by a doctor. +++Hi Helene. How many years before starting on my program did you digestive problems start, and tell me again how long you have been on my program? I do eat all my vegetables well-cooked, but I don't cook the nutritional yeast flakes. I have a real hard time digesting veggies anyway, and I go to the bathroom maybe twice a week, and I regularly have to apply the castor oil pack. +++I think you'll do better using either olive or coconut oil for your pack instead of castor oil, leaving it on while you sleep. I occasionally have stevia and other spices that are not well-cooked. I have had brown stools twice since being on your program, but that's about it. I seem to remember that it was when I ate fewer eggs and/or on the days when I didn't take supplements to let me body adjust, but I'm not sure. I haven't been consistent in my use of fitday, and I believe that I eat more proteins than I'm supposed to. +++It isn't a problem if you eat more protein as long as your fats are up to the lower amount of your ratios. Ensure you always have eggs. You need to use fitday enough so you get the feel for your ratios. Bee, this is Helene again with a couple more precisions: I often get the feeling that food gets stuck in my throat, and I don't take HCL. Other than that, I occasionally have pain in the ileoceacal valve and in the liver, as well as rectal itching, but that's about it. Thanks in advance for your help! +++You may not be producing enough saliva, which is mainly caused by your body running on its fight/flight nervous system, so do deep breathing exercises before starting to eat, and maybe a couple of times while you are eating. +++Helene, in any case you should do my 9-Day Program, and possibly stay on liquid and pureed foods for longer than 2 days. Bestest to you too! Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
