Guest guest Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 good carbs come from vegetables and to a lesser extent, fruit, which should be eaten in moderation. bad carbs come from grains and all processed sugars. who agrees with me on this? > They also feed pathogens and spike the level of glucose in your blood. > > >> >> Â Â Â Good Carbs are complex carbohydrates that break down slower in your >> body, while simple carbohydrates break down fast in your body (they go >> right into your blood stream.) > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I agree, but not all vegetables are good. Carrots and other starchy veggies are bad. Same goes with fruits. Apples and bananas have a high fructose content, berries are low in sugar. I'm learning from a book that I'm reading that says humans don't need carbs. He uses Weston Price's book " Nutrition and Physical Degeneration " as a reference. You can find a book that backs any information. The only way to know for sure is to try it for yourself. > > good carbs come from vegetables and to a lesser extent, fruit, which > should be eaten in moderation. bad carbs come from grains and all > processed sugars. who agrees with me on this?

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Banana's really feed yeast. Pears, on the other hand do not. Rice is chalk full of sugar but we had the most trouble with corn products, believe it or not.... not the gluten. If you're going to eat bread, opt for Rye bread as it is the lowest on the glycemic index. Always look toward low glycemic foods to try to starve out the Candida and not to feed the yeast. That's really what you're trying to do: starve out the bad bacteria, the Candida and all of the other pathogens. That's the goal. To live a life completely starchy carb free is difficult. What is happening is that the body is lacking enzymes to break down the carb sufficiently and thus mayham ensues. We used to eat enzymes with every meal to aid in digestion. The one I like the best for carbohydrates is (believe me.... I've done my homework through the years) is called ZyCarb. It is worthwhile looking at digestive enzymes and how they can help you. Here is a link to the website: http://www.houston-enzymes.com/store/ I also like Enzymetica for high quality effective enzymes. They are at http://www.enzymedica.com/ Enzymetica also carries some therapeutic products that I love such as Mucostop which helps with overactive mucos. Virastop and Candadise are GREAT for Candida. Enzymetica can get pricey though and I am in favor of just going to the alternative doctor and getting a script for that nasty yeast. It really helps to bring down auto-immune and gets it under control. We had to do a six month stint on the prescription Difulcan to really get rid of that nasty yeast permanently. Once we did that, regular foods became a non-issue and we just had to worry about chemicals.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Where did you get the information that pears don't feed Yeast? They are a high fiber fruit. When you starve out the yeast, with what do you fill the void? > > Banana's really feed yeast. Pears, on the other hand do not.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 You fill the void with good bacteria's. You can use high quality probiotics for this but personally, I found them really expensive and difficult to get enough quantities into the system to make a difference. If you can tolerate casien, the SCD (specific carbohydrate diet) has a wonderful 24 hour yogurt that has more probiotics in it then you can find in any pill. We could never tolerate the casien so opted for Coconut Kefir Water and fermented vegetables. These are just as good. They are extremely healing for the gut. You can find out how to make coconut kefir water on the Body Ecology Diet website. BED (body ecology diet) sells packets for fermentation of vegies and for coconut kefir water. I could never figure out the young coconut thing on their site so just bought coconut water that they sell at health food stores and bought kefir grains from The Happy Herbalist site. It worked really, really well. Coconut kefir water is extremely bitter but it really works well to replenish the gut. In the autism community, it is well known that pears and pear juices are about the only " yes " on the do not feed yeast list for fruits. I tried to avoid any fruits when we were on full 'cruise' on our healing plan. You're trying, ultimately, to heal the gut which will quiet down the autoimmune. To do this..... all of the 'nasties' have to get substantially eliminated: the candida, the bad bacteria, the metals and any other lingering bad pathogens..... like clostridia or h. pylori. If you were to test, you would find a lot more metals then just mercury. We had lead, arsenic, tin, and a whole host of others as well as mercury. Once the door from the gut is opened, every invader imagineable creeps its way in. The disease you get depends on your own personal susceptability.....but they ALL involve auto-immune. Quiet down the auto-immune and you get healing.... After spending years of study and research for my child and finding a 'managed' recovery, this is the belief I have adopted in my heart. It is the auto-immune that is the real bad guy. It eats away at the body.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I make kefir out of goat milk, fermented vegetables with whey, seasalt and water. Have you ever tried the GAPS diet? Pears were a no for my metabolic type, according to the test that I took. > > You fill the void with good bacteria's.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I swear.... u should really look into taking a biomeridian scan. They are cheap and the information is invaluable. There are different brands of the same thing.... like an electro dermal scan. This was the only way we could determine the " exact " foods which affected my boy. The gut will not heal if you are consuming foods that you are intolerant of. It just won't. I tried everything.... a billion different diets.... If you do a scan, then you can determine which exact foods are affecting you. If you continue to consume foods that the body is sensitive to, the minute it gets into the blood stream, the body sees a 'foe' and those natural killer T cells get turned on HIGH. Auto-immune kicks in and the body goes into a vicious histamine attack mode. In order to heal the gut, that attack mode HAS to get quieted down. Foods are specific. While there are commonalities between individuals, thus the benefits of the different diets.....we just couldn't get true and lasting healing until we determined which exact foods affected " him " . As we healed, we did a new biomeridian scan about every 4 months or so, again....while attacking the yeasts, metals and pathogens.... Every 4 months, we found that we slowly could add foods back in without consequence. Again.... today, we just practice chemical avoidance and are generally ok. We've had a couple of small flares in the past 3 years and on those occasions we go strict to just veggies and meat for a few days, add back the essential supplements and it's gone. Again, we are still chelating small amounts of mercury every second week using oral DMSA and ALA. Once it is all gone, I'm hopeful that there will be more healing.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I went to a homeopath early on and I was tested by biofeedback. I did SCIO for awhile. Now I'm eating for my metabolic type but a test is due again after these few months. If I can find anyone near me who does the biomeridian test I will have that done. I think that as your disease changes so should your diet, not drastically but gradually and slightly. Right now I'm eating protein and fat with low-carbs, hardly any fruit, low fiber. I'm working on healing my gut. I think the fiber (which is from carbs) is a menace. Instead of sweeping out your intestines, fiber is abrasive and tears holes in the lining and damages the villi. Hence, free radicals are set free. > > I swear.... u should really look into taking a biomeridian scan. They are cheap and the information is invaluable.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 We found the same thing with starchy carbs. I would read reports about other who would do gluten free and then load up on the corn and the rice (did that for a while). Well, rice feeds the yeast and soon enough, you're intolerant of the corn! We had to get rid of them all for a long, long while. Surprisingly enough, never had a problem with potatoes but I think that is because my eldest daughter hates potatoes, so I never cooked with them thus, he never developed an intolerance! So....anything that will cross that barrier...like the starchy carbs and the chemicals.... that you eat a lot.... you become intolerant to! Casein in cheese (and yes....even goats milk!) is extremely congesting to the ears and tough on the digestion too. Have you ever tried almond milk? It's tasty. I know that there is a yogurt recipe using almond milk floating about somewhere on the web.... Everytime I have tried to make almond milk yogurt, it has not turned out but some one out there cracked the code because I remember reading about. Another hidden offender for us that we simply couldn't overcome was soy. Soy was near impossible to eliminate because it is in EVERYTHING! We did acupuncture for that one but still.... I don't know that we quite got rid of it. We also used low dose oral antigens for a while to work it. The foods are key. The body's reaction to the foods is what sets off symptoms. But....you can overcome the food issues if you get the gut healed. It takes a long time and you must be sure to replenish with the good bacterias and get rid of the metals too. If you don't get rid of all the metals, you will be chained to a very strict diet forever. You are never reactive to one food (though it may appear that way.) Generally, there are 14 to 20 items that are compromising the system.... I couldn't believe how many foods were affecting my boy! Astonishing! But really, starchy carbs, sugars and chemicals....that covers a lot of territory!

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I've only eaten whole " real " food for many years so I don't get soy or corn in my food. When I was a raw vegan I made a lot of almond milk. But now almonds are pasturized and I don't make almond milk unless I find them raw. Goat milk is more easily digested than cow milk. I drank low-fat milk for a long time before I was dignosed with MS. Big mistake! I thought that it did a body good but pasteurized milk and even organic milk and some raw grass-fed cow milk are dangerous. Pasteurized milk is dead with synthetic vitamins added and so is organic milk. Most milk, even some raw cows milk comes from cows with A1 protein. It is deformed protein. Some raw milk is A2 and that is preferred but goat milk has no deformed genes. I have not eaten corn in a long time because most of it is genetically modified. Soy is bad news for the thyroid and adrenals. I never ate tofu when I was raw but I did eat fermented soy sauce, tempeh and miso a few times. I wouldn't eat those now. > > We found the same thing with starchy carbs. I would read reports about other who would do gluten free and then load up on the corn and the rice (did that for a while).

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Yes, I have been for years. I removed my amalgams, did EDTA IV and later EDTA suppositories. I've done salt/C, NDF, Metal Magic, NCD, Chlorella and cilantro, Dr. Dietrich Klinghart's protocol, SCIO... I used to be the moderator of this group and I wrote most of the opening page based on studies and experiences of past members and the products that we have tried. Chelation and detox have always been high on my list of necessary steps towards recovery. > > Are you chelating as well? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
