diet

[Guest guest]

, Greg, best wishes in your continuing support of . Re diet, of course you have to ask her doctor. I have AIH only; I don't have experience with 's situation. My doctor said to eat whatever I wished, but her needs may be very different. He approved of high protein intake even in advanced cirrhosis -- 's doctor may not. When I began taking high doses of prednisone, plain yogurt with fresh fruit was the only thing I enjoyed eating. My gp approved it, although she was a bit uneasy about my high calcium intake. I used a yogurt strainer (just a fine mesh of any kind, really), which makes the yogurt less acid and drier, easier to eat.

Hi all. I'm a bit confused here as to proper diet for my fiance's cancer...several people have told me conflicting things. I was just wondering if someone could give me advice and possible positive outcomes due to certain diet *and other treatments as well*. It would be much appreciated.

My fiance has leiomyosarcoma in both lungs and the liver and his doctor has him on chemo every 5-6 weeks, but says that will only temporarily stop the growth.

We're at wits end right now and don't have much money to travel and don't know where to look for financial support for special treatments (such as one mentioned to me in Tiajuana)---We live in central New York (near stown) and would appreciate it if someone could tell me of a sarcoma specialist in NYS, or even CT, MA, etc...east coast.

Also, does anyone of a good nutritionist for cancer patients that I might contact?

Sorry to ask so much. But you all have been so helpful so far. (The oncologist was impressed with the info and knowledge I had gotten here about sarcomas---THANK YOU!!)

Hi,

Sorry about sending the last msg out using black as a

background. I am forwarding it to the group again. Please

be patient with me.

Gregg wants to know if being irritable, inpatient and a

grouch is common in someone like 's condition?

This is not like her at all.

We received word today that the results of the tests done

on 's liver are in. They are indicating that her liver is

functioning at about 15%.

Sure would appreciate some input on a diet for her. I am

also curious if she can have Yogurt with fruit. I know she

likes it and it would serve as a good snack.

Thanks (again),

Gregg

I haven't used prescription anti-fungals in about 10 years... there are many other alternatives that work great.

I already posted the Candida Purge which is psyllium (husk & seeds), caprol (oil - not tablets) and Bentonite Liquid (not dry powder)....

The purge can be found at www.wholeapproach.com (look under candida treatment) - i don't buy the purge ingred's there though because other places have them cheaper...

Hi,

I would have to say from experience (unfortunately) that being grouchy and

irritable can be expected for a little while. For me part of it was being

scared out of my wits and feeling really lousy. The other parts were from the

medications. It has gotten quite a bit better for me although I still have a

shorter fuse than I had before.

As far as diet, it can vary for each person I think. You may wish to ask her

Dr. for a referral to a Nutritionist, or Naturopathic Physician. Also, I would

suggest Palmer, MD's book on Liver Disease. I can't remember the title

but I ordered it from Amazon.com and you can search by author.

Good luck to you!

>Hi Amy,

I was on the Body Ecology Diet last year but my doctor discouraged it

saying it was too restrictive. I still use some of the recipes in her book

but am currently not following any specific diet. The sc diet was

mentioned this week and that may be where I end up. Make sure you get

enough essential fatty acids in your diet by adding olive oil or some of

the flavored flax seed oils you can get at your health food store. I add

at least a tablespoon to my soup after it's already heated, cook with olive

oil, and add it to salads in place of dressing.

Exercise is real important too. I hate to make the time for it but feel so

much better after.

As far as family support goes, my fiancee is super!! He even eats what I

do when we're together (except at restaurants). My step-mom (she's 76) who

taught nutrition at college level doesn't understand, nor does my brother

who is an RN. I've just gotten to the age (44) where I'm going to do what

I feel is necessary to get better and it really doesn't matter what they

think. (Besides, I'm stubborn!) It's really healthier to eat what we

have to .......... funny how different things look when you're not eating

sugar anymore and you watch others packing it in. We're so much wiser than

they are but look how long it took some of us (me) to get here.

I suggest you look in the archives of this group and the yeast-L egroup. I

believe you can get there via the

following: http://www.infosky.net/~alexmi/candida.htm

They have some wonderful suggestions as well.

Joanna, here is the book information.

Palmer, M.D:  "Guide to Hepatitis Liver Disease - What You Need to Know" ISBN 0-89529-922-4.  Written with the needs of the non-medical user in mind, but loaded with information.

J. Worman, M.D:  "Liver Disorders Sourcebook" ISBN 0-7373-0090-6.  This book has a more academic tone but is quite readable by non-professionals.

Cis,

What blood type are you? I don't digest animal protein well either!

I had been on Atkins for 13 months because it stabilized my blood sugar.

3 days ago I started Eat Right 4 Your Type! I have already started feeling

wonderful and losing weight already so I'm just thrilled.

I eat quite a lot of organic beans, and occasional tofu, without a problem.

As a vegetarian, I need the protein.

Hi , In regards to your wondering mind . My son is 12 yrs. old , DS-

Supplements w/out the Piracetam . Results were not good according to

his Elementary Teacher , he seemed more aggressive . I tossed it

out . Had him try the Flinstone Vit., nope , more behavior

problems .Now at the age of 12 , I decided to try the Flinstone vit.,

again , no changes . Now, he is under medication ,which I did not

care for , but it is helping him sleep through the nights . Wakes up

fine . I attended the Second Annual Medical Conference on Autism "

What Can We Do Now " , these are some info I picked up :

Most commerically available children's vitamins , however , contain

allergens that may be more harmful to an AUTISTIC child . For ex.,

retail vit.commonly include artificial flavors and colors, corn

derivaties,casein,soy and other products to which many AUTISTIC are

allergic or sensitive to .Visit www.immunolabs.com for more info. or

request for a newsletter from www.kirkmanslabs.com .Hope this helps .

Oh, I forgot to mention he is taking Nature's Code Multi-

i am finding all of this diet information fascinating and a little

overwhelming....nick's diet consists of wheat and dairy and i am not kidding

it's ALL wheat and dairy...here i am merrily giving him multivits because he

doesn't eat a good variety of foods and then i see this about the vitamins. it

seems as though i just don't know enough and i turn to the doctors about

diet/nutrition info and they look at me as if i'm speaking in some

nonunderstandable language and look at me as though i am this poor mother to be

pitied...like i think switching his diet will make him not autistic and

miraculously " cure " the down syndrome. what i cannot make them realize is that

we are not looking for a cure...nick is nick and we love him for him which is

why we are always trying to do stuff to make him healthier and happier. why do

we as parents constantly have to dig for every tiny bit of information? i feel

it in my bones that nick's autism has something to do with his diet or vice

versa...not everything i am sure but there is something there. i still am not

really sure what the " full autism " diet is that you are referring to, but

i do know that there are certain things in nick's behavior that are changing

since we have begun to decrease the wheat in his diet....we are slowly replacing

the cream of wheat with cream of buckwheat which has no wheat, gluten or casein

(contrary to its name). can't do anything too fast with dietary changes...nick

watches us like a hawk when it comes to his food!!!!!!!!! i would love to know

if anyone has had positive results using diet................and thank you for

the heads up on the vitamins...i'll check brands etc.

hi Fran,

Depends on what you're looking for in diet...I'm on Dr.Mercola's diet. It is very strict. you can look atthis by going to his website at http://www.mercola.com. If you read the heading that says "read first" it will give you info on diet. He gives lots of other info on just about any topic in his newsletters...always an interesting read. I love his work. If I can help, just ask...I'm not all that educated, but I've learned so much since joining this group.

[Guest guest]

Dear Debi,

There is a book called God's Way To Ultimate Health by Malkmus. The

idea of the diet is to have lots of raw fruit and vegies and some raw nuts

and seeds. Some extra virgin olive oil and or flax seed oil. Have about 15%

cooked food. Salt is not really healthy. We use a thing called Bragg's

Liquid Aminos. Herbs are great. It's like soy sauce but not as high in

sodium. Distilled or filtered water is important too. Carrot juice and

Barley Green are also used every day. The main thing is no animal products!

This means no meat, fish, cheese, yoghurt, milk or eggs. It sounds pretty

boring but you do get used to it and the benefits outweigh the hassles. We

get up in the morning and have an 8oz. glass of home made fresh carrot

juice. Then about 1/2 hour later we have a big fresh raw fruit salad. For

lunch we eat lots of salad. Put in as many different raw vegies as possible.

Experiment with different home made dressings. The shop stuff is full of

preservatives. For dinner we eat another large salad with a cooked portion

of something. This might be a baked potato, brown rice, wholemeal pasta etc.

You can make raw pasta sauce in a blender and just heat it gently. The idea

is not to kill the enzymes in the living food. We also home dehydrate

fruits. These make a wonderful snack.(not too much if you have candida.) We

have a Champion juicer and make frozen banana ice-cream in summer. This

contains no animal products and is beautiful. We also make nut milk. This is

much higher in calcium than cow'smilk and does not cause the problems that

many people get from cow's milk.

1 cup of raw nuts, (sesame, sunfower, almond or cashew or combination of

all.)

3 cups of distilled water.

Place in blender and blend for a minute or 2. Pour through cheesecloth.

Instead of discarding the left over pulp use it to make fresh tahini to

spread on bread and baked potatoes.

BANANA MILKSHAKE.

2 ripe frozen bananas. Freeze in plastic bags without skin on )

6 pitted dates,

1/2 cup walnuts,

1 teaspoon Vanilla ess,

1 " honey,

2 cups nutmilk.

Blend together and enjoy.

For more recipes there is a book called " Recipes For Life From God's Garden "

by Rhonda Malkmus. We eat very well, but just eat differently than we used

to. I lost weight on this and eat much more than I used to. I used to starve

myself to stay slim. Not anymore. Living food leaves you feeling more

satisfied. My husband is very thin due to a malabsorbtion problem. He often

has some toast at breakfast or lunch. I have found I also need extra

carbohydrates sometimes. We found the Barley Green expensive so we grow our

own and juice it with the carrots. We don't always stick to the diet 100%

but do the best we can. If you are eating out try to find a salad bar where

you can have some choices. When friends ask us out for dinner, we ask them

if they can bake a potato and make a salad. Stir fried vegies are also a

good idea when eating out.

I hope this helps,

Love,

Rosemary.

Rosemary -

thanks for this info... was just talking with my (vegan) daughter, when she

realized that she wasn't getting any calcium. Didn't realize that almonds

were high in calcium.

I made delicious drink in my VitaMix (oh, I love that machine - this used

one I got at eBay was a Christmas present to myself, something I wanted for

YEARS).

Mixed a handful of almonds with enough water to blend, and a few dates to

taste (to make it sweet enough, but not icky sweet). Then I wizzed the heck

out of it. Mmmm, delicious.

I am trying to make as much of my diet be raw as possible. I can't be too

strict, because of everyone else eating regular. But I feel better with

good, clean food, and cant' wait til I grow my mesclun lettuce mix again -

just got my seeds!
