Is it recommended to be tested for MTHFR?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I would really like to find a medical professional to take this journey with. Does anyone absolutely love their doctor? If so, why? Has anyone found a doctor or medical professional who is willing to talk about and treat MC with diet changes? I’m really struggling to find a medical professional to w...

While dealing with MC, I've experienced WD and the pain associated with it felt like a dull, ongoing cramp type pain. Like a dull headache in your gut that doesn't go away. I recently tried a magnesium supplement, ended up with WD, and have resolved to never try magnesium supplements again. It will ...

Can’t thank you enough for sharing your knowledge, and caring so much to help all of us.

I have been eating lamb and sweet potatoes for most meals during phase 1. I'm currently free of WD, but I wonder if it's because I'm still weaning off of budesonide. How do I really know if lamb is safe? Is it typically always safe for MC patients? I consumed lamb during my life, but primarily for h...

I’ve come across pistachio during travel and wondering if they might be a safe-ish option for a snack.

Same with avocado. It’s filling and satisfying, but is it usually safe?

Obviously it’s all individual, so looking for any holistic experiences others have had or learned.

Thanks,

Thanks John. Wish I could send you a pic of the lamb loins I got overseas, here, they chop them. There, they sold them as pristine cuts with no fat. It was a wonderful find, but haven’t found that here.

I sent my lab specimen to enterolab, following their very precise instructions. It was sent to Greece. I sent it on Oct 4th and received lab results on Oct 22nd.

Thought others might like to know they're able to process tests and the timing is just a bit long, but not bad.

Thank you all. Tex, this is exacty the type of information I was hoping to learn (tuna sensitivity may show up as salmon sensitivity, pea protein is a legume, etc). John, my diet has been essentially your diet, lamb, turkey, sweet potatoes. I eat ground lamb a lot and it's high in fat. While traveli...

Thanks Tex!

There are so many probiotic choices to improve gut health. I purchased one talked about here, but I seem extra sensitive.

What about sauerkraut brine (just the liquid)? Refrigerated kind.

I am not hugely political, and I am vaccinated for covid. However, I have been hearing that the covid vaccine may be linked to auto immune diseases. Any knowledge or medical studies about this?

Thanks,

Thank you both. My results were really surprising to me. Especially that Oats, Rice, Tuna, Almonds, Walnuts and Pork. I rarely ate those things. Can you help me with a few questions, based upon your experiences? First let me give you some background. I started WD in May. Completely out of control. I...

Well, shoot. Not great test results. A few questions, if you have time. I'm having a difficult time processing this.. Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA 74 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units) Fecal Anti-casein (cow’s milk) IgA 38 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units) Fecal Anti-ovalbumin (chicken eg...

Thank you.
