I am new to this way of eating

January 1, 2001

Hi everyone, my name is Carol Lapka, Minneapolis KS. I have some

questions that a friend of mine out in Montana can not answeer

because she is a B and I'm an O. What vitamins should we be taking?

I've read the book and tried figuring out what from what from the web

site, but can never really get a handle of anything. I am currently

taking Vit B-12 2 a day 500 mg-multi vitamin-One a Day with Iron, vit

c 1000 mg daily, magnesium 2 a day-250 mg, folic acid 1 a day,

acidolphilus(?) can't spell either, 4 a day-and my hormones- was

taking CQ10-30 mg once a day, and bladderwack 2 a day, but ran out.

Should I get them again too?

I currently follow the type O diet-with some avoids only-like bacon

that's all. I cut out most milk products, but sure miss my sour

cream. I do eat some salad dressings with some avoids in them, but

they don't seem to bother me. I have been also trying to incorporate

the Hellers low carb(once a day)diet, which I have been on since

December of 1999. My friend in Montana was the one who pointed out I

should watch my diet when I kept getting colds-at that time I was

eating cabbage about 2 times a day. No more.

I am 50 years old and work currenlty in a pizza factory. There are

times the smell of corn drives me crazy, an avoid for me! I have

been very active physically on this job, but prior to this I ran 3

times a week and walked 3 times a week. I have began walking again

after about a month off-getting use to the job, but running right now

would be difficult in the snow and ice!! This week looks like it is

going to start melting so may start running agin soon. I am also in

recovery from alcohol, so also go to meetings 3 times a week before

work. My job is currenlty 2nd shift, which is OK but makes my

mornings really hectic, if I try to sleep in!!! Make up for most

lost sleep on the weekends. Anyway that should give you enough

information. If you need more, please let me know and I'll gladly

answer.

Look forward to hearing and reading your post.
