LOD vs No Amylose Diet in Lyme Treatment

[Guest guest]

Yes Karla. We used GPL. I just don't know which part is the Oxalate result. My son rotates all nuts which I make into bread: almonds, pecan, brazil nuts, cashew, macadamia, hazelnuts, walnuts, and lately I am looking at seeds - I just made our first pumpkin seed bread. Also tried coconut bread and he loves it. Doctor said I should do amaranth, quinoa, millet to strengthen his gut in preparation for the antibiotic treatment for Lyme. Does anyone use this No Amylose Dief?Sent from my iPad

Depends on what lab did your OAT. Great Plains is the only lab with oxalate markers. The easiet way to determine whether oxalates are a problem though is to do the diet. If youve been giving the really high foods, like almonds, spinach, and chard, then pulling those will likely tell you if the diet is appropriate.

> I am still confused which diet to put my son on. We have been GFCFSCD for 8 years but my son's new diagnosis for Lyme has created more sensory intolerances. He has become very aggressive which I am sure is due to the infections. But if it is from oxalates and dumping because I have been giving high Oxalate foods such as nut breads, some fruits and vegetables, how does one know if there is an Oxalate issue?

> Today I bravely took my son for a walk and noticed that he at times keeps his eyes closed or covers his ears. What could this be? Everything seems painful to him these days. Things seem to subside a little bit with Motrin - proof that he has severe gut and brain inflammation. He is going to take Calm PRT for neurotransmitters, Norlox, Avipaxin, Omega3 DHA Select and Resveratrol for inflammation, K PAX multi-vitamins, S Boulardii and Custom Probiotics DLactate to strengthen his gut before the course of antibiotics. He also takes Rescue Remedy and Barberry. Comments?
