MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

I am trying to expand my diet and need some ideas. Thanks

Thanks Tex. By the way, thanks to your posts about your health I decided to have a CT heart scan and found I have the beginning of coronary atherosclerosis (I will be 75 this month so no surprise I guess) so I will be taking a statin. The Doc also wants me to take 81 mg of baby aspirin. Thanks for t...

My Enterolab test says I shouldn't eat oats, #1 on the bad list. I am wondering whether I can eat the gluten-free oats. Thanks

Thanks Tex for saving me money and more.

Haha

So glad to hear you have recovered so well, isn't amazing to get better when we are over 70. Have no idea whether you are over 70, but I'm 75 and feeling fine these days.

I just received my results from Ubiome.com (a microbiome screening test that uses precision sequencing™ technology to identify key microorganisms in your gut, both pathogenic and commensal.) All my good microorganisms are way too low, but fortunately no bad ones. This was a free test, but I don't kn...

I went to a cardiologist last week who decided to order a blood test from Boston Diagnostics to see if I am absorbing excess dietary cholesterol which would account for my high number. He also mentioned that sometimes HDL, even though high, can be dysfunctional. I will update when I get more info. T...

I hope you remain mini stroke free. Do you eat a high or low fat diet? My good cholesterol, HDL has doubled since I began eating lamb. Also, my doc is checking to see what my LDL fractionation is before prescribing statins, not sure why. Have you see this: https://www.bostonheartdiagnostics.com/ Loo...

Thanks for posting your history. Did you have any side effects? I took them once and my legs have never been the same, but better than a stroke or heart attack.

Thanks for the info Lilja. Let's hope it's true!

Thanks Gabes

Thanks so much Tex. I'm glad you are ok after your stroke. I am definitely not trying to lose weight as I am underweight from from restricted diet. So far, dairy is one of the few things I can eat and it appeared to help my digestive issues go away. Lately I've been getting my veggies in the form of...

MY LDL is 247 and HDL is 103. Of course my doc wants to put me on statins, but I don't want to do this. When I last posted I needed advice on gaining weight and I am happy to say I did, but it also raised my cholesterol which is understandable given all the lamb and dairy I've been eating so now I'm...

You are right! Thanks

Haha, I did see that part, but I am not injured and I don't workout, though I should.
