Hi @clays23. Started years ago with strict all natural low carb eating with things truly enjoyed, slowly added/changed foods to see how my body reacted like night shades, mushrooms(fungus), etc. Eat small meals every few hours daily with combination of each food type spinach/green veggies, apple, blueberries, strawberry, carrot, low sugar fruit added or plain greek yogurt, small portion nuts/seeds( high calorie for portion size☹️), no nitrites meat protein like chicken/turkey/ fish, corn/green tortillas, beans/lentils. Found many great almond/coconut flours but portion size to stay within your particular daily carb limit suggested🙃. I have wicked sweet tooth and do cheat special occasions with much caution and years of figuring out what I can get away/live with😛 Stevia and Monk fruit my helpful sweeteners. Lots of water with couple ounces kombucha added throughout day, no caffeine. Start each day one decaf coffee with spirulina, turmeric, cinnamon, stevia, and splash of oatmilk or other natural low sugar cream option. Take daily age appropriate multivitamin, l-lysine, nac, d3/fishoil, blackseed oil, calcium. Timing of when you eat/take things very important so suggest reading possible reaction of combined foods, pills with/without meal and time of day/empty stomach. I even called my pharmacist to clarify label contradictions/difficulties with dose/time etc. Everybody’s bodies are different so kind reminder to give it weeks time to try/eliminate certain food item. Hope this good starting point as my foggy brain probably left something out🙃 and all the best to you!🌈
Thank You! I just wanted to see if we had any overlap and we do. This is all new to me (connecting with others through Mayo). I definitely think that all we can do its research, listen, try things and make our own conclusions based on our own body's reactions to the things we try. I did just re-read the labels on my supplements and realized I am taking some of them "wrong". It takes a lot of time and energy to be your own health advocate! Best of luck and continued optimized health to you 🙂
