Guest guest Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 About a week or so ago I offered to share a few things. I have been to a nutritionist, and she recommended steering my diet to avoid saturated fats, basically limiting all meats, but I can still have things that fly (all poultry and game birds) and live in the water (seafood, fish, shellfish) whenever I wish. Her studies were at the Institute of Nutrition in the UK and she has ION recognition (necessary here to make sure you are going to a great nutritionist, not a poser). She was also one of the founders of the Food Doctor practice, so is a big believer of no milk products for women (breast cancer risk), vitamin C (even large doses), and about 10 portions of fruit and vegetables a day. She is a remarkable woman and I am sure that incorporating her recommendations into my life and exercise and physio routine can do no harm. The book recommendations: Udo Erasmus, Fats that Heal, Fats that Kill The Food Doctor, Vicki Edgson and Ian Marber As for physio, I continue to see a man for physical therapy related to hip and quadriceps weakness. The exercises are simple and help. When I went on Friday, he asked if I knew about any back problems that occur due to structural / physio imbalances due to CMT. He apparently had seen a patient with severe back pain who also had CMT. Does anyone know of any articles on this matter? I would like to pass to him. Thanks, and have a great week, Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
