nutritional deficiencies, was: shampoo

December 17, 2008

Be aware that not all nutritiionists are created/become equal. The one at Kaiser-SF a few years ago was clueless; all she did was show me a scrapbook of processed foods that were GF. No useful guidance in improving nutrtion at all, and I believe some the information about gluten was incorrect.

Thanks for all the tips about nutritional deficiencies -- this could

very likely be contributing to my symptoms. No, I haven't had my

levels of any of these checked yet (my dr. hasn't been very helpful

with guiding me through the healing process). I will ask her for a

referral to see a nutritionist.

Many thanks!
