I have thermo scans periodically and my blood continues to be tested at 6 monthly intervals. The trend

When have you completed a Metabolic Typing Test?  This could hold many reasons as to the: Why? question.  Consuming Garlic on a regular basis (three cloves per main meal each day) is a sure way to eliminate high blood pressure and have a cleansing action on your blood - removing toxins that we are exposed to in foods today.

re wheat intolerance. Some people believe the Chorleywood process, which shortens the action time of the yeast, makes bread less digestible.

WISH I KNEW WHO TO BELIEVE, OVER THE LAST 10+ YEARS I HAVE HAD A LOT OF ALTERNATIVE THEROPY FOR DIFFERENT ISSUES,COST A LOT OF MONEY ,                                                                       I SPENT 15 MONTHS ON A VERY STRICT DIET OF NO SUGARS,FRIUT,NO WHEAT,AND ALL I FOUND OUT WAS I WAS 7LBS LIGHTER, FELT EXHAUSTED ALL THE TIME ,                                                                                            DEPRESSION GOT HOLD OF ME AND I FELT REALLY DOWN ALL OF THE TIME,  THEY CANT SAY I DID NOT TRY,I DO LEAVE BREAD ALONE AS  WHEAT IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THE FACTORS IN MY WIND PROBLEM,

DIETITION AT HOSPITAL WAS ONLY INTERESTED IN ME EATING VEGETABLES ALL OF THE TIME, BUT I TRIED TO POINT OUT I HAD MORE GAS AND WIND THAN EVER,                                                                                                                I EAT VERY SMALL PORTIONS AND STILL GET  BLOATING ,                               IBS IS WHAT IS BLAMED FOR MOST OF IT NOW ,                                                I HAVE A NEW DOCTOR , WHEN I ASKED HER ABOUT DOING TESTS TO SEE WHAT I HAVE AN  ALLEGY TOO, SHE DECLINED AS SHE DID NOT THINK IT WAS  NEEDED, I WAS PREPARED TO PAY FOR THE YORK TEST BUT HAD TO HAVE THE BLOOD TAKEN AT THE SURGERY,                                                                                     I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HELP TO POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION ,                                                                                                     I AM FED UP ,OVER WEIGHT ,NO MOTIVATION SOMEDAYS TO DO ANYTHING,AND DO NOT SEEM TO BE GETTING ANYWHERE,

Milk Thistle for the liver I think would be a good idea for Auto-immune disorder.

Regarding wheat allergy.  When people have chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and environmental sensitivites, mood swings, etc., it can be helpful to have food and environmental allergy testing to see what the individual is allergic to.  Once allergy is established, it is important to avoid the 'inditants' which cause reaction in the body so as to not disrupt equilibria further in the body.  Wheat and other food allergys are very real.  Sugar is never good for us and can contribute to microbes flourishing in our intestinal tract, undermining our health and immune system.  Wheat and other food allergies can cause inflamation in the body setting us up for all kinds of maladies.  Usually we never even get the connection to the symptoms and the cause and just take drugs to cover over symptoms.  It is important to get to the root cause of the sickness or disease.

my three grown up children all have a form of arthritis find if they avoid wheat and only use spelt old roman wheat flour, they do not have any symptoms and have no need of any medication.

At one point my younger son was on invalidity pension at 27yrs and could hardly walk without great pain, now in New Zealand full of health and running etc.

My older son is a great believer in fitness and used to eat small meals 5 times a day and regularly works in the gym, he found wheat had a build up effect as he ate sandwhiches during the day so had to alter his diet as recently he had such pain in his feet he could hardly walk, now al well.

Three years ago I felt so ill that I thought I had CFS or Fybromyalgia. Every time I sat down I fell asleep. I ached in every muscle and joint, and felt as if I was in a permanent fug. I am a complimentary therapist and yoga teacher , so I took my own advice and did a food exclusion test - no wheat.  Within days, all my symptoms had gone, but the detox was interesting to say the least. I was literally passing 'acid' in my urine and was having to go to the loo up to 10 times a day. It lasted for about 2 weeks. I feel really well now and spelt has no adverse effects.  Oh, by the way

My symptoms were put down to being old, I am 62 now and in better health than ever.

read gut instinct by pierre pallardy.its not just about food. great advice

June, why don't you try gut directed Hypnotherapy at the IBS Clinic in Manchester - it's covered by NHS.  They have excellent results with IBS.

June, I am a nutritiionist and I suggest the following:

You need to repair the mucous membrane of your intestine by using : L. Glutamine(I prefer the powder) and Biotin. Avoid all glutens  and dairy products apart from butter. I hope you are eating meat (white). Chew the food properly , I think you are not digesting the vegetable.  Take digestive enzymes and probiotics. As for fats, use butter, olive oil and coconut oil.
