Successive Aproximations of the Diet

It is so difficult to remove starch and sugar from my diet.  I did manage to remove enough so the hives don't itch so much, but I still see the blossoming red markers.

Today I decided to make my special green goo:  I used reverse osmosis water (I'm taking an MSM pill and MSM combines with chlorine); I add about 35 grams of protein and a couple of grams of spirulina; some spices which change based on my mood, tomato paste, garlic paste and just a bit of coconut oil.

I have to be careful of coconut oil, since if I take too much over several weeks, my blood pressure will go up.

So I had a minor flair up today, but I only noticed it this afternoon because I took a shower and looked in the mirror.   Besides, I don't know how much was leftover from yesterday.

Twice, I had the green goo, and then when I made dinner, I put some vegetables (spinach, onion and green onion, mushrooms and green & red peppers) in water and boiled it before adding protein, spirulina, spices, tomato paste and garlic.

The first thing I noticed today was how calm I felt a short while after my goo.  It was a rush of endorphins.   Then I noticed that I wasn't getting hungry.  I drank coffee, and water and didn't feel the urge to eat something sweet.

Although after dinner I did look longingly at the fresh dates in the refrigerator.

We'll see how I look and feel in the morning.  I don't know how I'll feel after a few days.

My guess is that if my hives are a bacterial overgrowth, after several days, i should notice the difference if I have something like oatmeal.

Vitamin C and MSM in Copious Quantity

There is an entire school of thought that says minerals, and organic minerals are critical to health and lack of them is problematic. MSM - also known by the dreaded name Methylsulfonylmethane ; which sounds like something an Alien breathes rather than a type of food. It's also called organic sulfur. The rumor is that it's created in the ocean, deposited on the land by rainwater and ruined by modern factory farm soil additives.   So we never get enough. It's primarily used for arthritis and helps with inflamation. Very useful stuff I might add.  It helps me exercise because it helps me reduce lactic acid buildup from exercise much faster than I would without it. In fact I felt so energetic exercising, with my new found lack of sluggishness that I overdid it and had some back problems that lasted about a month. So I tried taking it once a day, and although that's better than nothing, twice a day is much better. I mix mine with some purified or ionized wat...

Just a bit of Medical History

I've had diabetes for the last 22 years, and it's a bit hard to remember all the drugs I have been on, but I have finally rid myself of them. In 2009 I developed cancer, and the drugs that I took for the pain from the complications of the cancer almost killed me.  If you have drugs that suppress the mid-brain,  you will perhaps not breathe while you sleep and have further complications.  I had some weight issues that probably helped the sleep apnea, but the drugs were the primary problem. I was taking Zonisamide at 400 mg per evening, and enough Gabapentin to kill a horse.  Both work on the mid-brain to help you sleep. Or kill you, whichever comes first. One of my many tumors was in my neck, and caused headaches.  It had also eaten into my C2 vertebra and almost made it into my spinal canal. In which case I would have been long gone by now. The long muscle at the back of my neck bowed out, and my doctor mis-diagnosed the problem which is both why I w...

The Peculiarities of Uric Acid

 I've been listening to some discussions and lectures about uric acid.   My brother had gout, and that's from crystals of uric acid being deposited in joints because you have too much of the stuff.  Aside from that almost nobody talks about elevated uric acid values as a problem, but that's changing.  The general idea is that things like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and dementia are related to elevated levels of uric acid.  I've watched this one featuring Dr Perlmutter:            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ6jPCcFNa8  And I'm about to watch this one featuring Dr Johnson:           https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTxkAK82e0I I've added quercetin to my list of supplements, and take it daily.  Uric acid is on the list of tests I'll be taking in a couple of weeks time.
