Re: Re: Eat Right for Your Type by J. D'Adamo, Whitney

[Guest guest]

What kind of dairy are you eating? I can't tolerate cow dairy (even raw

cultured) except for very small amounts of raw butter and raw butter oil.

I started using sheep yogurt and do well with that, and am now using White

Egret farm's probiogurt (awesome stuff) My kids love it too.

As far as grains go, I found that I was sensitive to not only gluten grains

but non- glutinous ones as well.

As for eggs, do you eat them raw or cooked? I find cooked eggs to be a bit

harsh to digest and orefer to eat them raw or very lightly soft boiled.

Del,

Not a good point but here goes. D'Adamo and others as well propose is that

stomach cancer is more predominant in blood type A. Personally, my stomach

has been sensitive since l was born. Had terrible colic on a homemade

formula of evaporated milk, corn syrup and and water. Raw cow's milk cured

it. Am beginning to question eggs myself as the only time l have no

problems digesting them is when they are raw. Are you doing fermented

foods? They don't do well in my stomach. Salt throws my potassium/sodium

balance off. Enzymes and probiotics in cheeses and yogurt are fine.

Oh, as a proud parent that makes me feel good.

But mainly I also want to say that they are over-propagating

again and if I missed anyone in sending the last batch, write me

privately (and put my name or kefiili in the subject line -- I

get a lot of spam). They seem to be mailing ok now ...

For what it is worth, my digestion took a good year or

two to get back to normal. A lot of the issues

seem to have not been allergies so much as

lack of ability to digest. I just concentrated

on meat, coconut oil, vegies, and fruit. Eating starches

ONLY at night seems to be magical too --

maybe saving up the hard-to-digest stuff allows

one's body so " save up " the enzymes for one

big meal. Or maybe it is the wine I drink with

the meal ... it's hard to drink wine with breakfast,

or, at least folks look at you weird ...

Yes, mine came through without a hitch and are happily working on a

batch of goat milk and a jar of apple juice.

Agree with Heidi here that healing takes years. Haven't seen my homeopath

in 12 years. Wasn't meant to alarm you. Don't think there are any iron

stomachs left with life and SAD diet.

Rather than ordering Celtic, knowing of my salt problems (gave it up on

food 30 years ago when l retained water carrying first child) l got French

sea salt at the store, started salting my food, few days later noticed

white spot when l touched my leg. Use a dulse/celery mix instead for minerals.
