Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Sure it is, and I did that for awhile myself But I find Atkins book very helpful, not only because of the recipes he offers, but because of the indepth discussion of the hows and whys and wherefores , the supplements that are helpful and what may not be, and tips about different foods that you may think are low carb but arent.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Dear Bill, I agree with you, Meenie, and others about diet. With more than one physical problem it is difficult to stick to one person's diet. Yesterday, I went to a health food store. The lady told me she didn't have one thing in that store I could use because of my mechanical heart and diabetes. That was very difficult to believe. I picked up a couple of things and asked her about them and all of them she said I couldn't use because of my heart. Wow!! A health food store can't even help me! I'm glad I started this list. -moderator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 1999 Report Share Posted March 28, 1999 I have also run into the same problems with diet. I have read many of them but each one is not good for all my medical problems. I have tried to take a little from each and finally have given up and last week went back to my original exchange type of diet that is somewhat modified. When you have 4 different diseases all working again each other it is hard to eat a standard diet. Bill Newman -- Rochester, NY wtnewman@...

Guest guest Posted March 28, 1999 Report Share Posted March 28, 1999 Yes, I also have to stay away from many of the natural products as they either cause problems with my heart or the medications that I am taking for the conditions that I have. I am also glad that you started this list. Bill Newman -- Rochester, NY wtnewman@... Bill@... www.christianmerchants.com List owner: bibletalk@... & disaster@... & medsupport@...

Guest guest Posted March 28, 1999 Report Share Posted March 28, 1999 She may have said that because she was afraid if you used her stuff and had a heart problem, you would blame her How long have you had a mechanical heart? I didn't even know they were in use Does it work well? Meenie Re: Questions Please >From: petra@... > >Dear Bill, > > I agree with you, Meenie, and others about diet.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 1999 Report Share Posted March 28, 1999 Actually it's just a valve that's mechanical, I've had it since April, 1996 and it ticks right along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
