MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Noted - thank you so much!

Hi Gabes, thank you for the info! This is really helpful.

Now that I had this reaction, I’m wondering how I should approach any topicals moving forward. Should I stick to only applying it to my hands and feet?

Thank you John! I think I‘ll give the oils a try since they keep the ingredients much more basic.

Hi there, does anyone have any recommendations for magnesium lotions that are free of soy-based ingredients? I attempted to use this lotion, but since I am sensitive to soy, it appears that it is causing symptoms (loose stools) for me: https://nfusemagnesium.com/collections/nfuse-natural-magnesium-l...

Very interesting, thank you for the information!! Despite the frustration that can come with navigating LC/MC, I believe that the rewarding part can be making these discoveries and connections along the way and learning what is best for our overall wellbeing, slowly but surely. I think for now I wil...

Also I just recalled - I did have a week or so within the past month where I didn’t have yellow squash in my meals, and I noticed my stools were much looser. Once I realized that the only thing I had changed was leaving out the yellow squash, I added it back in and the normans returned… At the time ...

I suspected that if I am having normans while still eating jasmine rice, then it’s likely not an issue for me, though I was not sure if this would be putting me at risk of delaying my healing. There is still a lot I need to learn about this disease, but I am trying to get better about listening to m...

Hi everyone, I just received my Enterolab results and would really appreciate some help with interpreting them. Currently, I am having normans. My diet is as follows: -plainville turkey -zucchini -yellow squash -jasmine rice -coconut oil -sea salt If you think there is anything I should adjust right...

Hi Tex - I definitely reacted to the sweet potato, as I had a bristol 6 BM (likely from re-heating cooled sweet potato, as you described). It seems I cannot tolerate resistant starches right now. Good to know. It's a bit frustrating trying to test any new foods, as it feels like traversing a minefie...

Quick question - why might sweet potato cause looser stools during the recovery phase? I was attempting to test sweet potato after having normal stools, but it seems to be causing me to go from bristol 4 to bristol 5 consistency. I know that might not seem like much, but it's a noticeable difference...

Thank you so much Tex. Your advice has been a life saver!

I'll look out for those olive oil brands before trying anything. Hoping to return with good news soon.

Hi all! Since my last post I’ve had good progress overall, with a couple setbacks.. - Started becoming painfully constipated without the zucchini & yellow squash peels. Added them back in and the normal stools returned within a few days. - Had an episode of waking up with nausea in the middle of...

Hi Tex - good to know! Hopefully that will be the case for me as well once I’ve done some proper healing for a while. Thanks!

Hi everyone! Just wanted to give a quick update on how things are going. I am already seeing great signs of improvement. I weaned off the chicken and I’m only eating turkey (from Plainville Farms) as my protein source. I also started peeling my zucchini and yellow squash before cooking them. For the...

Hi Fredi, I like your positive attitude! I’m not too fond of taking supplements if I don’t have to. I’d much rather get my nutrients from eating the right foods. I definitely take the small portions approach when testing new foods. Starting with 1/4 cup day one, 1/3 cup day two, 1/2 cup day three, s...
