MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I'm sorry to hear about your accident and hope that you get well soon! I am sensitive to eggs. For me, the reaction is the same regardless of how they are prepared or what additional ingredients they are mixed with. You can try alternate bird eggs e.g. duck, quail as many people who haven't been abl...

Great news about being able to eat eggs. It's like getting an amazing present every time you have success in being able to include something back into your diet!

Sad but true. What is good for some is not necessarily good for others. You'll also find that things you can't eat now may be tolerable after some healing has occurred. I'm into Year 3 of my journey and only started feeling a lot better in the last 3 months. The range of food I can eat has increased...

Thankful for all the people on this forum who have blessed me with their wisdom, guidance and kindness over the past couple of years!

Here's a few ideas that might help. I also use rice milk as a staple and don't have any issues with it. The quality (wateriness) seems to vary greatly by different brands so it may take some investigation to find one you like. Versatile Applesauce 1 can 400g pie apples 1 can 400g pear slices 1 tsp c...

Hi Whitey, Welcome to the clan. I'm sorry that you are feeling so overwhelmed by this disease. It is is pervasive and effects you physically and mentally. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Tex is a brilliant help to all of us. I recommend his book (top right corner of the web page) i...

Hi Pam, Sorry to hear about your experience. I am intolerant to chicken eggs, so I decided to test myself on duck eggs. They were from a friend who raises them organically e.g. no pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, natural feed. I tried them a few times as I was hoping they would be successful, as I...

Thank you Tex for your commitment, foresight and courage in setting this space up for us and continuing to be inquisitive when others told you diet had nothing to do with treating these issues we face!

Hi Stephen, Welcome to the forum. As Tex noted, being able to cook is a necessary skill, even if it's just being able to boil things up, as all processed foods will have ingredients that are potential irritants. Over time you can build a better understanding of what works for you but that will be re...

Thanks for sharing this. Couldn't agree more. The 4th paragraph is the key issue we all have to triumph over constantly. We had a public holiday here in Australia on Monday. Went out with the family (2 young kids) to have a day out. They chose to do strawberry picking at a berry farm followed by a v...

Welcome to the forum Tango. All of us have been on the same journey and after being on diet modifications for a period of time you will see recovery and you will feel better. The process of healing is gradual and patience (and prayer for me) is the only thing that will get you through it. It took me...

Congratulations Tex. I look forward to reading it.

Pretty much anything with rice :) I have some recipes in Dee's kitchen for burgers. I enjoy steaks (fish, beef, turkey, chicken, lamb, pork) with vegetables (mostly sweet potato, carrot, zucchini and pumpkin). Salads have always been a favourite of mine but I've had too cut them out of my diet. I st...

Check the recipes in Dees kitchen as they may be helpful. Are you looking for a sweet or savoury option?

Great to hear your recovery is going well Pam!
