Re: Re: My Pizza - if you can eat some carbs

[Guest guest]

Hi gail,

I have introduced foods slowly since ihave been on

this diet for 2 years. I can have brown rice products

without any problems. I also had ice cream one day

but my tongue was a bit more whitish so i didnt go for

that again. I also have strawberries without any

problems. So slowly i introduce different things one

at a time to see what the reaction is.

Yes i finished chemo 2 weeks ago and will begin

radiation soon. I feel better than i have in a long

time. My scans and blood work are all good, so things

are lookin up for me.

I will stay in touch and thanks for the advice with

the foods.

sue

Well, I'll just throw something in here to make matters worse :-)

I've always been told and always beleived that what foods we eat

aren't just a matter of symptoms that we notice. If we've been having

ongoing chronic problems and one day we stop reacting to a certain

food, it doesn't mean that food is now 'free'. It takes longer to

heal the gut than that.

If a food doesn't cause bloating or indigiestion something ntoticeable

it still might cause irritiation that you're not aware of, or still

feed candida, it could still affect your hormone levels (which are not

immediately noticeable), or blood sugar levels etc. etc. All these

posiibilties make it hard to reach that last part of healing.

I've heard you need stick to it for at least half a year even after

you think you're no longer reacting.

oops, was afraid of that :-)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Some people might not be reading this thread, how about reposting

under a new subject line to get some other opinions on wether to

continue avoiding certain foods if you can't tell wether you're

reacting?

In this country, we have a product which is Tofu ice cream. It has no

animal fats in it at all, only vegetable protein and fats. I've had

some one day while cheating and didn't have a reaction to it at all.

You may find it in a health shop, or perhaps in a Kosher shop as it is

very popular with Jews (those who are strict in the dietary sense cannot

eat meat and dairy in the same meal).

Re: My Pizza - if you can eat some carbs

Yeah, I can't eat the ice cream either. I tried and I just will have

to stay away from it forever I think. One of these days I'm going to

try to make a fake ice-cream, maybe out of homemade yogurt - if I

ever figure out how to make homemade yogurt LOL. It's probably easy

to make, but I've never done it. Guess I'll have to start

researching how.

Glad things are looking good for you.

Hi Keen,

doesn't it have a sweetener like rice syrup or something?

Yes, it has fructose. Not ideal, but a much better cheat than real ice

cream.

Better than normal ice cream. I thought it would be horrible, but even

before the candida I preferred it to normal ice cream as it isn't heavy

or too rich.

Beware the sugars in it though.

I've been making homemade yogurt for the past year -- every 2

weeks.

The machine that I have is foolproof (simple

directions)Yogourmet

Multi Yogurt Maker($48). The key is to let it " cook " 24 hours to

maximize digestability. It makes half gallon at a time and I eat

it

twice a day mixed with whey, inulin & coconut oil and frozen

papaya

or mango. You can use 3 to 4 tablespoons of plain yogurt as

a " starter " . It's a very easy habit to get into -- the container

just sits next to a plug for 24hours.

Yes, it is made from soya. But it is something I have so seldom that I

don't consider it to be a health problem. Soya is not good if taken too

often, but I don't consider it so bad that I avoid it entirely.

Keen

Re: My Pizza - if you can eat some carbs

All the Tofu I've ever seen is made from soybeans. I don't want to

be eating anything made from soy. I've never had a problem with any

dairy products but I believe it's the sugars in them that effect me

now.
