Guest guest Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 <<I ate a lot of protein but it was mostly fish and chicken with rice and vegetables. I missed my beef. There weren't many avoids there to tempt me.> I travel quite a bit, but I'm an O non-secretor so I don't eat sugars or grains. On one hand, this is much easier since I can almost always find a protein source: fish, chicken, beef, etc. In some places (like Eastern Europe) I may have some difficulty finding fresh green (non-starchy) vegetables in restaurants, but there always seems to be some kind of salad. What kills me is that many of the European cultures just LOVE their pastries so trying to avoid them sometimes takes Herculean efforts! You just try walking past a pastry shop window in Vienna...

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 It depends on the country in Europe ... in Switzerland we can get many of the things you can't get (or hardly) in the US in our supermarkets, for instance speltbread, speltnoodles, organic meat and things like that - the rest we get in our healthfood-stores we have two ER-restaurants in Zürich ! love Maddviking@... wrote: > In a message dated 9/24/2002 12:21:20 PM Eastern Daylight Time, > donnamae58@... writes: > > << For instance, I want to see the world, and when I can afford a trip > overseas, I go.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 It is super-easy to be compliant in Croatia. Lots of lamb, beef, wild meat, fish and fresh vegetables.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 I know someone who was recently re-exposed and has moved to another state to detox. I talked to a friend of his and his friend said he was going to move to Europe but wasn't clear as to why he was going to move. Which made me think, do countries like Europe have a different approach on the treatment of mold exposure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
