Detox- Warrior Diet - Immune Suppression

February 2, 2004

Good morning everyone!

Okay, my question of the week. I am currently attempting a stab at the

warrior diet, as it really seems to fit me well. My diet goals are to

improve my health issues, which are mostly in the Fibromyalgia category.

The basic ideas at this point on Fibro are that the body stores toxins and

such in the muscle tissue instead of processing them out like normal

folks....also some possibilities are that I cannot digest nutrients

correctly from food. This theory fits well with my problems, as if I get

a deep massage, accupuncture, or change my diet for the better I start

feeling pretty icky for a couple week or more afterwards. My rashes flare,

which the theory on those is also detox side effect.

So, all the background in place.....here is the deal. I went on the WD

beginning of december, and I think I was detoxing big time after about a

week. 3 weeks into the diet, I got REALLY sick with the flu, and ended up

having trouble sticking to WD until after I was 95% better. I went back on

the WD in full about 3 weeks ago, and I am back in the detox stage again (if

that is for sure what it is). This weekend I picked up a cold. Sigh. I

heard someone else mention getting sick while on the WD as well in the

beginning.

My diet is not completely NT yet, I am still working on incorporating more

natural items slowly. But, all that said, I usually don't get sick this

often and am usually the one who avoids colds even if everyone around me has

one (SAD diet or not). During detox, am I really open to picking up things?

Is my immune system down right now? Is there anything I can do to boost

it? I am taking CLO, digestive enzymes, whey, and cultured milk products on

a daily basis. Anything else??

Thanks!!!
