corn

[Guest guest]

my homeopath says that i can have whole grain flours. if you are on a

similar diet, you can make injera an ethiopian flat bread.

Injera-Ethiopian Bread

Recipe By : African Cookery-Annette Merson

Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories :

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3/4 cup buckwheat flour

3/4 cup spelt flour

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup Club soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 egg -- beaten(i use an egg substitute)

2 tablespoons butter -- melted (i use smart balance)

Mix flours, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Stir in egg and club soda

until batter is creamy. Cook at once on a buttered skillet. Fry 2 tablps.

batter for 1-2 minutes on one side only. Serve warm with or under main

dishes. the club soda takes place of a sourdough starter. (This is made

in the same fashion as crepes in a pan.

i think the secret is to get the skillet nice and hot first. also if you

can have whole grains you are allowed carrs water crackers and triscuits.

I have a friend who is a Type II diabetic controlling it mostly with diet,

and she's done a lot of research. She says popcorn really spikes your blood

sugar, and she stays away from it completely. (She also says that corn in

general, in the US anyway, is so loaded with pesticides that people

shouldn't eat it at all unless they get organic.) She's Mexican, and

sometimes she has corn tortillas with a meal because the habits and cravings

are so strong, and she always gets face breakouts and burning from it. She

went to a Chinese herbalist to find out what foods she was allergic to, and

he told her to completely avoid corn.

So: maybe it was the blood sugar spike, or maybe you are allergic to corn?

Hope this helps!

corn

Hi again

This past few days I have been really good ... exceptlast night I had

popcorn and butter. My face is on fire. Is corn a really bad trigger

for anyone else?

As well I have tried grain - kuwatt (sp?) this morning, is there any

substance now that I can eat that can make a sudo-bread. I guess it

is

back to veggies and white meat.

I wonder if my face does not have anything to do with the food, but

because I started grapefruit extract. Maybe this is die-off again.

Has

anyone experienced die-off with GSE.

Thanks so much for all your great information. Oh and before I go I

was reading about thrush in the earlier postings. During my last

die-off phase I woke up one morning and my tongue was covered in an

orange like substance that I had to peel off. This happened a few

days

in a row. It was yeast. Lucky for me it went away without any

treatment.

This has to be one of the strangest illnesses.

have a great day

Actually, yes. Whenever I have something that is not good for me (especially

beer), my face gets red and feels like it's on fire. Corn has been

particularly bad for me over the past year. If I have too much of it, I get

the feeling of a really bad bladder infection (to the point where I'm doubled

over and almost in tears) for a few hours and then it goes away. When I went

to my naturopath/kinesiologist, it's one of the things that showed up in my

allergies. Out of the major ones, I only reacted to the ones that fed yeast

(calcium/dairy, sugar, vitamin B, vitamin A, grains) + corn and chicken/eggs.

It made me wonder if corn and chicken/eggs also feed yeast. Anyone else

react to these foods?

I can't have much corn - a little is OK, but for example at the

weekend I had quite a lot of corn chips with hummus while

watching a film, and felt utterly dreadful afterwards. Really faint and

dizzy, and kind of hung-over the next day. It's annoying because

everyone knows I'm avoiding potatoes, so whenever I get together

with my friends to watch a film or anything, someone brings

unsalted corn chips for me, and I think 'OK, I'll have one or two' and

then can't stop munching until I make myself ill! I find I'm OK with

maize snacks - it's just white corn that does it. I've had one realy

bad reaction to eggs, but am generally fine with them. Can't

comment on the chicken because I've been vegetarian for 17 years!

Even though they make you sick, I think it's really nice that your friends

think of you that way! Mine all look at me like I'm from another planet when

I explain what I can't have...(which list is getting longer every day!) =)

Oh, mine do that too, but they are REALLY considerate. We

recently had a huge meal for Louis' band and their partners (It was

our August Christmas meal....don't ask....). Everyone brought at

least one dish, there were 15 different dishes on the table, and I

could eat ALL of it apart from the pudding. Now that's what I call

friends!!

I asked that question a couple of weeks ago and got no response. Hopefully,

someone out there has a recipe.

Hey, Sprouters! I don't have a recipe or experience with sprouted corn, but

I have an idea: put the sprouts through the grinder or the juicer with the

blank in and use the mush to make dehydrated corn cookies. One might add

pine nuts, dates, banana, maybe even grated carrots or sweet potato. Just a

thought,

Didn't mean to sound harsh towards Broward -- I was just feeling frustrated

at all the conflicting information and opinions. The salicylate information

I think particularly got me feeling that way because there were so many

things you're supposed to eliminate.

ANd since I can't smell -- some of you may identify with this -- I can't

really taste and as it is it's hard to get me to eat anything that's not

sweet or salty. I've always been a picky eater and any time I need to

eliminate anything it makes it that much more difficult. Corn is hard enough

-- I don't completely avoid it, though, because it's in EVERYTHING -- corn

syrup, dextrose, corn sugar -- but it seems the more I have of it over time,

as it accumulates, then I start to have an allergic reaction. So I just keep

away from it as much as possible.

I'm not sure that it's related to my polyps, though, but it's hard to tell.

The only thing I have ever noticed an actual reaction that happens

immediately besides aspirin and NSAIDs is alcohol.

Anyone else share the frustrations with diet and want to " boo-hoo " with me?

At http://www.netromall.com/guai-support/faq_sal.htm it says "Products made from grains (corn, wheat, barley, rye, arrowroot, buckwheat, maize, millet, oats, rice) are ok also, but only products made from the grain itself. The rest of the plant upon which the grain grows does contain salicylate." Maybe Broward has been eating the leaves. ;-) My son does react to something in corn -- it makes his ears turn bright red, which is actually amusing.

Re: salicylates

Boy, I don't know about anyone else, but I find the information on salicylates REALLY confusing. Plus, someone (Broward I think) mentioned that corn is high in salicylates but I haven't found that ANYWHERE on the internet.

[Guest guest]

> Didn't mean to sound harsh towards Broward

I've been on the Internet for twelve years now.

I *invented* " harsh " .

Here's the link for the " maize " reference -

http://www.netromall.com/guai-support/sal-full.htm

As you can see, it *says* " Maize " , but it implies " Maize oil " .

I remembered it right, but I got the context wrong.

> Anyone else share the frustrations with diet and want to " boo-hoo "

I'm bummed about no more ice tea, but really, it could be

worse. At least I still have meat, bread and cheese. I'm

happy to have something tangible to focus on. Before, I

was just guessing at different things.

" Maybe it's sprite "

" Maybe it's cucumbers "

" Maybe it's peas "

That's a little too much like working at a bad job to suit me.

[Guest guest]

The information at http://www.netromall.com/guai-support/sal-full.htm

is confusing, but my interpretation is that corn and even corn oil in foods is

OK, but corn oil topically applied (and maybe even corn oil taken in large

doses as a dietary supplement -- but who would do that?) is not.

Hiya Bernice,

Here's some information on corn from my article:

" Grain foods (wheat, rice, corn, oats, etc.) store their energy as

complex strands of sugar molecules, which is a starch, and acts just

like sugar in the body. That is why grains are just as addictive as

sugar. After being off all sugar and grains for awhile you will find

your craving for them will diminish.

Our grain food supply also contains mycotoxins (a toxin produced by a

fungus), especially found in corn and wheat. Mycotoxins suppress our

normal immune function. See the section on Yeast, Mold and Fungus for

more information. "

This is from " Nourishing Traditions " cookbook by Sally Fallon:

" Cornmeal needs to be soaked in lime water for 7 hours. To make lime

water place about 1 inch dolomite powder in a 2-quart jar. Fill jar

with filtered water, shake well, cover tightly and let stand

overnight. The powder will settle and the resultant clear liquid is

lime water. Store in a cool place (it's not necessary to

refrigerate) and use for soaking cornmeal by pouring out carefully.

You may also use commercial " masa " flour which is cornmeal that has

been prepared by soaking corn kernels in lime water before grinding.

However, like all whole grain flours, cornmeal quickly goes rancid

and develops a bitter taste, so it's best to grind your own corn. "

How about eat it when its fresh? Why would someone freeze sprouts

when the primary reason for sprouting is to obtain the most nutrient

rich food on the planet? Food is simple. Keep it so. People waste

so much time on the preparation and cleanup of gourmet foods. Eat

what you crave when you crave it. If you have moved processed foods

out of your life, you will always crave natural unadulterated foods.

So what your body craves is probably the nutrients it needs at that

time. What could be simpler or better? To banish junk food, go on a

100% raw food diet. Many raw fooders have commented that it was only

after they had banished all cooked foods from their diet that the junk

food cravings were reduced to such a low level that it was child's

play to control them. Worked for me. No junk/processed foods in 2.5

years. Not a single second of junk. It was easy. That's why it was

successful. If I can do it with my feable amount of will power,

absolutely anyone can do it.

Marilyn:

That is Love for an animal. I have sprouted pop-corn and got very sweet

" wheatgrass " style grass. I placed the sprouts on soil and allow them to grow.

If you want you can juice " ze corn " .

[Guest guest]

Probably one whole cob would be a portion. Hard to say given that

there's a whole big middle part that you don't eat, but 2 cobs sounds

like a lotta corn! Try www.calorieking.com and see if that site has

any advice (remember 20-25g carb per meal).

two corns probably are out unless they are very small and young. The

young ones are mostly water. The older it is the more starchy it gets.

Corn has a pretty low glycemic index, different kinds vary from the

40s to the 60s. The fiber content helps with this. So, it isn't the

worst thing you could eat. Actually a really good carb side dish is

corn mixed with black beans. That is low glycemic and pretty slow

absorbing energy packed carb.

Hi.

Is there an enzyme that works specifically for corn? We're GFCF and try to

be SF and CF but he loves popcorn....

He takes Peptizyde, Zyme Prime and No Phenol with meals and some snacks.

Thanks.

For some kids, I have read that the combination of Zyme Prime and

No-Fenol worked. But for my son, nothing helped for corn except ALA

chelation.

my son has a corn intolerance and nothing seems to work on it. I do give him ZP

& NF when exposed to it. I have done some minor trials with organic corn

products with ZP & NF and do not see the same reaction. You might want to try

organic popcorn.

His preschool inadvertantly gave him popcorn one day...that was the culprit

for discovering it truely was a corn intolerance. It was not a fun few days...

I don't know if you're familiar with NAET but I find that anything that is

an emotional allergy doesn't get addressed by enzymes... my kids have

emotional allergies to dairy and one has an emotional allergy to rice...
