Re: Updated Seafood List 2006

[Guest guest]

Ok, this is really frustrating. I just bought cod, flounder, and orange

roughy, all wild caught. Orange roughy and cod are under the worst choices -

unfortunately I already opened the bag but I guess I will take the orange

roughy back to the store. What about flounder?

I don't know what to eat anymore. At this point I am reacting to goose,

lamb, beef, and possibly venison and/or chicken. It's getting harder and

harder to find things I don't have a reaction to.

Thanks Debra,

Do you have the direct link from which this info came from? I would

like to read up on it a little bit more.

Thanks!

Hi a,

Pork Butt Roasts and Pork Bellies are the fattest pork cuts that I

have been able to find. Eating those might help you increase your fat

intake. Also, some delis slice their own meat and will give you the

fat they cut off for free, its worth checking into.

As for distended stomachs and water retention, I am now going on my

second year of looking like I am 6 months pregnant from being so

bloated all the time. It is very uncomfortable, I agree with you!

For me, if I avoided all the foods that made me bloated, I would be so

restricted I don't think I would ever be able to get all the nutrients

I need to heal. Its a catch 22, thats for sure.

I, myself, struggled with it for some time, but now, I just deal with

the bloating. And even though it was really bad for a time, I now

have days where its gone, even when I eat foods that use to cause it.

So I do see progress, its just not as fast as I would like it to be.

So, I think your idea of only eating foods that make you bloated at

night is a good compromise. I hope that works for you. " )

Hi Jecca, I do eat pork, turkey, and fish, but don't want to overdue

it on the fish consumption. I also ordered some ostrich and buffalo

hoping it won't cause a reaction. I just can't get as much fat out of

them as I would like. I will have to try and find a butcher and just

buy fat and render it. Or deal with the reaction - with the meat I

don't get pain, I get a very distended stomach and water retention in

my lower body. It's uncomfortable and I don't like it. The next day

it's typically gone so maybe I could stick to eating those at night

when I am just home anyhow.

==>Die-off symptoms and healing reactions are unavoidable. The only

way is to get " through " them by pushing ahead. You can't avoid

everything you have reactions to or you won't be getting the

nutrients your body needs.

P.S. Please trim your messages a. People who get email

digests go crazy scanning through so much information. Thanks a

bunch.

a,

Eat a lot of West Coast Salmon... full of good fat, low in toxins, and

GREAT for you! Sure works for the grizzlies.
