raw eggs

[Guest guest]

Hi bee,

Whenever I eat raw eggs (either in my mayo, or in the raw egg drink) I notice I

get EXTREMELY bloated, and it does not go away for a couple of days. I only use

1 egg when I make the drink or the mayo so I don't think it is because I am

having too many.

Any reasons for this?

May I ask how far along are you in Bee's program?

getting much better about 2 weeks ago, but now im back to my bloated,

Thank you for your response Sacha.

****Lets explore this a bit to see what is happening. Have you been

using fitday.com to see if you are getting the balance you need with

fats, carbs and protiens?

It may not be the eggs. Can you tell me what ingredients you are

using in the egg drink and how much of each please?

====the egg drink I used 1 egg, 1 table spoon of coconut oil, 1/2

tablespoon butter, 1 -1.5 cups of water, and a little bit of cinnamon

****Ok, looks fine, I see you are making half the recipe. Sounds like

you need to work on your digestion. You may try taking a half to a

whole digestive enzyme with this to see if it helps. If it does, you

are probably having trouble digesting the oil. Read Bee's " Improve

Digestion " file on her site for more information.

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com

If you have been on Bee's program 3 to 4 months, are you getting 3 to

4 T VCO by now? That really helps your digestive tract heal. See

Bee's article " Digestive Diseases & Coconut Oil " .

If you are not already drinking Bee's Electrolyte Drink you may want

to start drinking 6oz 4-6 times a day to help improve your digestion.

Home made mayo? What are the ingredients in the mayo you are using?

Please tell me the recipe for this also.

==== the mayo is the one on the website. I use 1 egg, 1/3 cup olive

oil, and sea salt

****Ok, that is the Basic Mayonnaise recipe. If you are using a lot

of olive oil, that may contribute to weight gain.

I am thinking you are reacting more to the oils than the eggs. Do you

use digestive enzymes? Are you taking all the supplements? Are you

following Bee's plan to a T? No cheating?

What are your average daily totals from fitday.com for your fat, carb

and protien intake? If these are not in balance, or even if you are

not eating enough (this happens to me) this can contribute to weight

gain also.

I have found I need to watch my food intake and make sure I am eating

enough because I am so satisfied with Bee's Raw Egg Drink twice a

day, I just don't get hungry enough to think of eating.

When I have found myself gaining weight or not dropping weight when I

know I need to, I have found if I use fitday.com, make sure

everything is in balance, I am eating enough food and I up my fat

levels with more VCO or butter, I begin to lose weight again. I

really don't worry if my carb levels are high enough, I just

concentrate on high fat, and see that my protien is up where it needs

to be.

Hope this helps. :-)

I forgot to mention in my earlier response to you that weight gain may

also happen if the body is retaining water to help buffer toxins that

are being released when you are on the Candida Diet.

So keep following Bee's healthy plan and your body will eventually come

back into balance once it processes and heals what it is currently

working on to help make a healthier you.

Hope this helps. :-)

Jewel here

I retain water all over, but mainly in my abdomin. I am not overweight

(or pregnant!), but I can look like I'm holding a beach ball under my

shirt!

For me this is caused by eating fat. Am undecided whether this is due

to toxin buffering as Debra says above, or a lack of enzymes, bile

etc. Maybe more than one cause. I do tend to think that for me it is

enzyme related, as I am finding that I can eat raw avocado, egg,

cinnamon & stevia smoothies with good results (this has just dawned on

me recently). But as soon as I add ghee or coconut oil, I get really

thirsty & retain water. Same happens when I eat scrambled egg (even

when I used only a small amount of fat to cook it in).

I take digestive enzymes, but I don't think that they contain anywhere

near enough lipase (after searching the net I found out that it takes

between 500LU-4000LU of lipase to digest 1g of fat, the highest

quantity of lipase I can find in a supplement is 300LU lipase),

especially when eating within the good ratios (that would mean at

least 200 capsules per day!). I am trying to convince my doctor to

prescribe enzymes for me, to try out, as she can get high potency ones

(I can't digest starches well either btw).

It took a very long time for me to figure this out (2 years) so I

thought that I would share, in case it helps.

I would suggest, to the original poster (sorry lost track of who

started this conversation) that you try the egg drink without the

extra fat, and see if that reduces your issues, as it may be the fat

not the egg causing problems.

****I deffinitly have NOT cheated once on this diet. I am taking the suppliments

required

**** I have not calculated my average daily totals from fitday. But really the

only carbs I eat is brocolli, and/or brussel sprouts.. everything else I eat is

protein

I would suggest, to the original poster (sorry lost track of who

not the egg causing problems.

**** I think I will try that. Thanks so much
