Dysbiosys is very common with MCS, CFS, ME, etc. Correcting the digestive system was key to my recovery. It should be done first to avoid malnutrition symptoms that complicate a differential diagnose. Most doctors can not deal with malnutrition in anyway. They want nothing to do with diet changes, as it takes money out of their pockets, erh, I mean they take less money out of your pocket to put into theirs. <grin> Corrections can begin with probiotics (acidophilus) and superfoods (chlorophyll). There are 'therapeutic' level of probiotics you can take. Once every 3-6 months you can do this, and more often if needed, but not for months at a time, as it can build up probiotic colonies to abnormal levels and harm you. For 5 breakfast/dinners in a row, take 3 times the labelled dose of the probiotic. That is just 2.5 days worth, 3 breakfasts and 2 dinners. It will restore the needed level of stomach and intestinal fauna to restore digestion, and absorption of nutrient molecules through the stomach walls into the blood stream. Do NOT do any more than what is above. In fact, start slow, testing for sensitivity to higher levels of probiotics. I react badly to several strains, so I buy only one brand now, which has only 3 strains. There are many other issues with this, and I would think this has been discussed on this list, many times. If not, then someone should post questions, and I will respond over the next week or two. I've way exceeded my daily limit for typing email the last 4 days.

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 I appreciate your input. The doctor also said this could signal anemia or cancer. They will re-test his blood again in a couple months. ________________________________ From: <pete-@...> At 08:05 AM 4/19/2009, you wrote: >After reading about this effect on iron, I am wondering if molds or >mycotoxins can effect the body's ability to absorb other vitamins.

In either of those cases, increasing the digestion ability would reduce those symptoms and even kill off the cancer (eat 1/2 or more of your food being dark purple veggies - I forget the name of this diet plan). Eating more ground grown food will increase the iron intake, which can be inhibited by chemicals in non organic produce. The iron blood content should then improve. So, eating more dark purple veggies should aid his body NOW if it's cancer, or if he has anemia. Or almost any other ailment, as the body needs minerals to heal (see other post). I do not believe in " waiting " for the doctor to " cure " me, as I know no doctor has ever " cured " anyone, as the body's immune system mechanism does ALL the curing. A doctor can merely change 'inputs' to your body, and hope for the best. The rest of the healing comes from you. From your mind. From your desire to be free of ailments. My 2 cents. > They will re-test his blood again in a couple months. I would not wait on the diet change. Again, per a prior post of mine, if you read them all, hard to do as they get long, I advocate not taking a single 'cure', but doing 4 treatments, just like German doctors are required to tell their patients, 4 different treatments are always available in German for any one ailment. Why do just 1? When doing all them gets you better much faster? Or disproves the diagnose so you can have the doctor 'guess' at the next diagnose. Your brother has my best wishes for the fastest recovery. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
