Hey!  I'm getting so tired of my usual round of recipes.  Anyone have anything different or especially delicious? I'm on list 3. Please share!!

Did anyone ask about this during treatment? Is it a no-no until list 5? I noticed some root vegetables are added in list 4?

Dear all,

Just curious If anyone has had any dizziness/equilibrium issues.  I got this about a month after giving birth to my daughter and it lingers for weeks then will go and come back against its so frustrating. I've only been in treatment about a week so it's not die off.  I've only had a full spin once, other wise it's this weird feeling like I'm on a moving boat or like the elevation of the ground is changing even when it's not.  I've had some issues with earaches but drs say my ears look totally fine. So I'm wondering if its an inner ear thing or what.

I wish there was a poll option on here ;)

I am in a horrible flare-10 days out from starting treatment and feeling such dispair. Sorry for so many questions this week!!

I know everyone is different, but is it possible I will get some symptom relief on list 1? I am in such pain today :(

Hi All

I have my first appt. with Matia on Oct. 17th. I wish it was sooner as I am flaring from some flax/vitamin C thing I foolishly bought from my Naturopathic doctor to help get my gut moving :(

Where can I find list 1 only recipes?? It seems everything I read has list 2+ ingredients. I am not sure I will start on list 1 but I expect I will.

I have a family to cook for. How do I do list one? Just through carbs on the side for my kids I guess?

Does Dr. Brizman allow mascara and loose powder on face during treament (I don't use creams, just rice starch powder)

What about lipstic?? I am already stopping all acne products and planning on looking horrid for a while.

Hi All,

Quick question - do gluten free plain potato chips count as being ok for list 1? I realise either way this is probably something to be take in moderation as it's not that healthy but it IS potato so I thought perhaps as a sneaky treat here and there it might be ok? On that note - are fries ok as well?

:)

I thought it would be good to revisit this idea of reporting the positive changes we are all going through.  The original Little Things thread is already 3 pages long, so I thought I would start a new one.  I love reading about the positive things that we are all experiencing, even if they seem small.

I am personally excited that my body is tolerating more probiotics and a little bit of Vitamin D.  I love how Vitamin D makes me sleep better and be in a better mood, but my gut still can't handle even a full capsule per dose yet.  I WILL get there though!

Since for us ICers agave is Matia's staple sugar-substitute -in limited amounts of course- does anyone know if the below linked article is truthful info and from a credible source?

What about the part where it says agave is "from 70% – 92% pure fructose — even higher than high fructose corn syrup (which is 55%)."
