A-F Betafood tablets from Standard Process, less meat and eggs, more beets.

What else do I need to do to maintain good GB health?

I have read that liver/GB congestion can cause anemia. Don't know how

strong the correlation.

I would like to consume less meat and eggs, but I am struggling with

not getting enough protein in my diet.

Soy is a good source of protein, but it is supposedly not healthy due

to a number of factors.

Dairy is a source of protein, but it gives me sinus congestion.

(hopefully, when I get things squared away, some day I can consume

dairy again)

I do take a hemp protein supplement which helps a little with the

protein. And I eat almond butter which helps as well.

I limit my meat and eggs to one meal every couple of days. I would

like to eat it even less than that due to my liver/GB issues, but I

am worried about not enough protein.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

My nutritionist told me to add whey protein powder to foods. I either take it

in a drink with milk and fruit, or just sprinkle some on top of cereal. I use

the vanilla flavor and it doesn't interfere with other foods. I stay away from

soy.

I am not sure that I can take whey because it is dairy. Dairy gives

me sinus congestion. I don't know if it is the whey, the casein, or

something else. I guess I could try the whey protein, but I am a

little hesitant because my sinuses are better than ever not that I am

off of dairy.

I am also battling candida. Is whey okay when doing the candida diet?

Thanks.

p.s. What do you mean by it does not interfere with other foods?

With all due respect, I am not going to wait on a sanctioned clinical

study by a medical group to make my health decisions. I am not sure

that I would trust it anyway. That is why most of us are here to

start with.

As for the soy, it is processed much differently today than it use to

be processed. Like many other industries, there are several

shortcuts being taken that compromise the quality of the product in

order to make a buck. And these shortcuts make the product

unhealthy. Aside from the processing, there are supposedly several

other factors that make it a bad choice as well. Perhaps as you

suggest, not all of this has been proven. But I am not sure that I

want to take the chance. Hopefully, there are other alternatives

that are less risky.

As for the protein sources, what are your recommendations besides soy

or meat?

Thanks.

I understand that the pasteurization destroys the milk from a health

standpoint. But unpasturized milk poses some risk as well. Some

people think that if you are going to be a milk drinker, that goat's

milk is the best choice. In fact the owner of my local health food

store has a supplier of unpasturized goat's milk for his own

consumption. Perhaps I can check into that. But I think that I

would rather stay away from milk of all types if possible. Thanks

for your help.

It is usually the casein for most people. Casein definitely makes my

nose run within a few hours. On the candidiasis list, whey is a major

part of the protocol because it is a source so rich in so many amino

acids and glutathione precursors. Certain brands are better than

others(isolated from casein and undenatured), but it is something to

look into. I would test it though if you could, because there is

still a possibility that you might react to the whey even the chances

are much lower than reacting to casein.

By not interfere with other foods, I mean it doesn't adversely affect the taste.

The Mayo Clinic in 1999 said that all sinus problems are due to fungus.

Therefore, I suggest taking natural antifungals to see if it will help you. I

don't think whey will have an adverse effect on candida. I think you need

antifungals. It certainly won't hurt to try.

You are miss informed over the idea that unpasturized milk poses any

risk that is any different from pasturized. Many many years ago when

we first started farming and I came across the concept of raw milk

from local farmers. I studied and researched the history of

pasturized milk and discovered that it is a big hoax which only

purpose was to make the corporation that was setup to sell this

equipment rich.

The governments data was centered around one major corporate farm

which had already been repeatedly cited for dirty farm operations. So

it is no surprise that twice in one year that the farm had salminila

poisining in it's milk. But the thing is that pasturized milk has

been found to be contaminated with salminila as well. But it was this

farm that was used to cry how evil raw milk is. The senator who

pushed for this was also affiliated with the corporation that was

poised to sell the pasturizing equipment.

The reason why most people who are lactose intolerant can drink goats

milk is because the fat molecules are naturally broke down to simple

molecules, where as cow fat molecules are complex. It is the extra

hard work the body has to do to break up the cow fat that is difficult

in some people.

As far as pasturizing, I don't recall the exact medical reason that it

is bad, but I do remember one case study involving cats. The fed a

test group of cats, group A was feed pasturized milk and the other raw

milk. The cats that was feed pasturized milk was very anti-social.

The other group that was feed the raw milk were very social in

contrast. So what does that tell you about pasturizing. Besides that

our bodies need the bacteria and other enzymes that comes from raw foods.

2 questions:

1) An allergic reaction to what? An earlier post indicated possibly

the casein.

2) What do you think of the whey protein powder sold at health food

stores?

Thanks so much!

>

> Whey should be just fine in terms of candida. In fact it is

promotive of lactobacillus and bifidus which are anti candida. The

sinus issues here are an allergic reaction not an infection though

the allergic reaction produces a catarrh discharge which will be

promotive of an infection setting in afterwards. Both the energetic

and biological line between yeasts and funguses is blurry at best.

As a general rule anti fungals are anti yeast and visa versa.

depending on the protein you are having trouble with fred, you may

not have an adverse reaction to hwey. you can also try goat's whey

(Mt. Capra) and might be fine with that. -D
