didn't feel good, is this mito?

[Guest guest]

wasn't the old diabetic dietary exchange system best? A balance of fat,

carbs, proteins....? I believe weight watchers is now using it though calling

it

something different. Vivian

Hi this is Bug in Michigan. I also got my dx's at U of M

(Mitochondrial Myopathy and Lupus) and that's where all of my docs

are currently. I live in Ann Arbor.

As Laurie said, not everyone can be on the same diet with mito.

Each person responds differently and therefore even the docs won't

likely give you a specific diet to conform to. For a few people

with very clear-cut difficiencies certain diets definately work.

For the rest of us it's trial and error. Generally, a balanced diet

is best with moderate carbs throughout the day. Don't cut short on

carbs but you don't want those to be all sugar and fat either. I

would highly recommend you do a little internet searching and read

up on the different types of carbs and how they work in your

system. That was of great help to me. Keep in mind too that your

body goes through changes monthly and when you have infections or

other stress. Your dietary needs may likely change during those

times too.
