Re: kefir

We get Amish kefir from an ethnic store along with Greek or Russian yogurt and

even kefir cheese! They are amazing products. We no longer shop at supermarkets,

but at small ethnic stores and fruit and vegetable markets; Whole Foods now and

then. With my recent asthma attacks and bronchitis we used essential oils and

food as medicine and I am almost over the bronchitis; in the past it would take

3-4 months to recover and it has been only a about 3-4 weeks. Don't eat heavy

foods at night; eat very lightly. Using sprouts we grow has helped my digestion

issues (IBS) immeasurably. Sprouts in just about everything, except we don't

cook them at all, which destroys their nutrional value. We will place them in

cooked foods that have cooled a bit, such as oatmeal, soups, stews, omelets; we

use our imagination. Sprouts are little powerhouses of energy and enzymes, which

our bodies need for digestion and health. We are eating more raw and exploring

ways to improve what we eat and using

our food as medicine. For instance, onions are expectorants and potatoes absorb

toxins. I ate copiously onions and potatoes cooked together, and every time it

helped me to cough up the crud in my lungs. Every time. Works great.

Thanks Cathy. I just got back from the neighborhood health food store

and then Earthfare. We still go to Publix for some stuff, but I'm

doing most of my shopping at the health food places now. I'll look for

the kefir.

I wish that I could avoid the heavy foods, but I need to get enough

protein and fat in me and avoid the carbs in the evening so that my

blood sugar doesn't drop and then I don't sleep. I hate eating right

before bed, but that, combined with the bed-time dose of HC is the

only thing keeping me more or less asleep through the night. This

balancing act that we have to play with foods and the supplements

after going on HC is so hard - at least it has been for me.

I thought all was suppose to get better AFTER going on HC, like blood

sugar especially. I thought the adrenals effected our blood sugar and

when corrected, it will be corrected to unless there are more

underlined problems, like pituitary or something else.

It depends on how messed up your digestive tract is. Cortisol does help,

however, in some of us it is not enough because we have more than one issue.

I have digestive issues from mercury poisoning so diet and other things need

to be incorporated.
