Guest guest Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 I have been reading the previous thread with lots of interest. I thought had made a typo when she wrote about neu5gc... so I went to google it... this is an interesting topic that i had never heard about. I have had hashimoto's and RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) (both auto- immune issues) on and off for the last 20 yrs. I went into remission after a year on a Blood type " A " diet (low in red meat and wheat) but ended up very, very anemic. I added fatty red meat from pastured animals in the last 5 year and feel better from energy point of view. But high stress a year ago has precipitated the return of my RA issues. .... if this neu5gc is partly the cause of the RA then this opens a whole new bag of issues for me... I think this may also point to the fact that I do much better on a diet very high in fat. I have been gluten free and that also helps with the acute inflammation. But the lingering joint pain is still present and I'd love to get it resolved. , do you know from your readings if and how long it would take to rid the body of this neu5gc? any other suggestions for RA? I should try the fast 5 with easy to digest fruit/veg during the day. Luckily, from the charts I found, butter is low in this molecule!! :-) Sorry, this is Off topic for Microbial Nutrition but a very interesting topic. I do make & eat lots of Kimchi, though.
