Very good information.

Hi Janet, definitely lots of food for thought.

I am working on eating lots of vegies each day. Kicking the sweets is not so easy. While using low carb options, perhaps artificial sweeteners also has problems.

 

[JanetMarie]

I have read that artificial sweeteners raise blood sugar because of the taste. Kicking sweets altogether is the best, and you get the cravings out of your system.

I'm currently on a very limited diet. I still cheat by eating cheese, but a little is okay. At least cheese is low carb.

Re cheese, I have an on-going conversation about milk and milk products. With the new a2 milk getting lots of advertising time, I did a little google search. A1 milk is primarily produced by the most commonly used diary cow the Hostein. Guernsey and Jersey are more a2; and goats and sheep are a2. Apparently this a1 milk is linked to arthritis too. Too, meaning, most concern has been around thost people intolerant to the a1 proteins.
Im more of a cheese eater, or yogurts, not whole fresh milk anymore. But this new information confirms a book where the grandmother, a healer, did not think milk was good for consumption. Used for sick people. Used as adjunct to bandageing wounds. I read this a few years ago, and have not forgotten this old womans beleives. Maybe she was right.

But I like my cheese and yogurt......

I like greek yogurt.... and frozen blueberries...... no sweetener

Tart from the yogurt sweet from the berries and Greek is much thicker so its kind of like soft serve...

Drinking milk is unnatural. Doesn't matter if it's A2 grass fed Jersey and Brown Swiss cows. I stopped drinking milk over a year ago, and that's what our herd share was. It was a very high quality. Used to drink goat milk also, which was my favorite.

I do agree with you that consuming milk is odd. Milk is a short term food for infant mammals. THen transition to adult foods. It is a human "invention" started when cattle and sheep were domesticated .....about 10,000 years ago.

I read a book a couple years ago...blanking on author and title..... wher the grandmother living ( and dying) in the old country of Lituania, was a village healer. I often ponder her take on dairy: none for humans with a couple specific exceptions. She had all her teeth and good health until very old.

Im not ready to give up dairy....yet. Did give up fresh milk long ago.... and I rarely buy that for my kids. Their doc is ok with that. Culture dairy and cheese is a big draw.

Im on the fence. Going 3 days no dairy to see if congestion is dairy driven.

Here is a controversial subject, and beware all the comments are devisive. Lots of very strong opinions presented. Overall a good summary of this controversial subject.

chemo can affect histamine tolerance---much of our foods are high histamines......
