Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 OK, here I go on that subject. I hope I don't stick my foot in my mouth again-it makes for bad breath. The thing that helped me get over the alcohol was looking at why I drank. What was I trying to relieve that was so painful in my life. Most of us don't realize that is why we are trying to do, medicate the " pain " , whether it be physical or emotional or spiritual. My wife said I was just treating symptoms and not getting treatment for the actual disease. I needed to face the disease and get that healed first. Pain pills never cure cancer! Wow. Does that ever make sense now. Sometimes getting the disease healed is a process. I had to realize that even if my father never loved me (rejection), that God did. He was my heavenly Father and I could go to Him for the hurts I was carrying and He would take them and heal my wounded heart. I remember sobbing uncontrollable as He took the rejection complex out of my soul. I didn't know that what was going on at the time but it came the next day after I had called my father and felt rejected at some of his comments, even though I was trying to reach out to him and show him that I loved him. I don't know if you followed that, but thats the worse kind of hurt-when you try to love someone and they turn away from you. BTW-I have seen my father and we spent time together last summer and have formed a relationship that we never had. But even if that never happened with my father, God wanted me to experience His love that he had for me, and let me know that he would never reject me. He alone, has unconditional love for me and for you. No matter what we may do He will always love us. It has made all the difference in my life. I have seen my life change as I am now able to show love to my boys that I have " rejected " for so long.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 Your story of your life's rejection is very moving and proves all things can change and for the better. I am sorry for the pain in your life but it proves to me that we all must experience pain in order to enjoy happiness. That's how I see it and have lived it anyway!!

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 Thanks to everybody for their answers about alcohol. I did ask my doc and he said I could have a glass of wine with dinner or for a special occasion. I used to drink socially and now I feel a little deprived. After I put the kids to bed on a Fri night man I wish I could slurp down a big Killian's Irish Red. Anybody know what I mean? AMY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 ' deprived ' that is exactly it. Can't wait for my birthday to come up. I believe that is a special occasion enough to drink a nice glass of wine. (Several months ago I got a great bottle of wine as a present I have been keeping it for that special occasion Just hope I don't have to do bloodwork in the following week).

We are in control for the first time and we are awesome women who are starting to know it!

I know we can drink red wine, but I'm talking about cooking with them. And hard liquors are an avoid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 It's not the alcohol itself, but the products used to ferment for the alcohol. We need to stick to a red wine type if we add any alcohol type flavoring. Tequila is questionable because of the syrup they add as part of the flavor comes from the Agave plant which is from the lily family and an Avoid for O's, according to Heidi.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Heidi didn't exactly say agave syrup was an avoid, since it hasn't been tested. This is what she wrote: Agave syrup ~ I found lots of fascinating reading on the agave plant. It is actually not a cactus, but a succulent, one of the many members of the grand lily (Liliaciae) family. Blue agave (Agave tequilana weber azul) is the species of agave from which the agave syrup for tequila is made. This is the source of the sweeteners I've seen on the market -- the syrup is distributed to tequila manufacturers and for bottling as a sweetener (its sweetness comes from its high concentration of fructose). The only member of the Liliaciae family in the food lists is aloe vera, an avoid for everyone except type As (partly due to the action of anthraquinones on us'ns, namely an extreme laxative effect (when taken internally)). Again, we have no rating for it, but from here it doesn't seem likely that agave syrup will make it to the O-non " neutral " list. :-} Either way it doesn't sound too good for O, secretors or non- secretors.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Max and Don, Thank you for the correction. I was just in a hurry and could only remember the fact that it isn't really a cactus and Heidi somehow didn't think it would end up as a neutral.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 Heidi's answer about agave was to a question from a O non-secretor so I think that is why she was being specifically direct about her answer for O non-secretors. You can interpret what she said about agave in general and decide yourself if you want to use it as a neutral for an O secretor, since it hasn't been tested. My take on it is I would use it sparingly, if at all, as an O secretor. Don > > Hestia@t... writes: > Heidi's article mentioned that she didn't see agave becoming a > neutral for O nons.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 For my part, I’ve never really been a big fan of alcohol. I enjoyed tequila shots and fruity cocktails but not much else. Never drank much. but everyone’s different I guess -----Original Message----- From: Kari Trautman [mailto:karitrautman@...] Sent: Thursday, 15 January 2004 7:21 PM candidiasis Subject: alcohol This brings up another tender subject. Was wondering of those of you/us out there, can you say that there was a definitely overly strong desire for alcohol? For me that was the case. Wouldn't say an alcoholic, but enjoyed it much more than other friends. For example when we would go out I don't think I would ever think of not have a glass or two of wine (unless of course I had a stomach hangover which I now know was due to the yeast) But if there is a link, wondering if the yeast was partially created do to drinking alcohol or a case that we craved it more because of the yeast?
