Great info on Borax and Boron. I might give that a go as well if I can find some in NZ.

I have eaten more Potato since my first lot with no obvious effects. I tend to eat on the evenings after I do some weights. I fried up some potatoes (that had been previously cooled for 24 hours) in duck fat. Heaven. Slept like a baby. I'm eating some more tonight.

I am however still taking 100mg of dyclofenac each evening. I've decided to give this starch business a month to work its magic before I try to come off those again. But the level of inflammation does not appear to be increased. Even with Dyclofenac, I have previously been unable to control flares.

Yesterday I ate a green banana in a coconut milk smoothie. No issue except for some unbelievably toxic methane production about 7 hours later. Absolute filth and uncomfortable.

I think I made a mistake however. I also had my favorite Sunday afternoon treat yesterday which is a fresh natural green coconut, take the top off it, drink some of that sweet milk then pour in some white rum into the coconut. Afterwards, eat the soft flesh. Lovely, but you can't drink too many.

Coconut milk is a natural laxative and its also full of Potassium .....as are bananas. Might have overdone the Potassium yesterday. I was uncomfortable all night, my sleep was poor, and major clear out. I will try another green banana tomorrow. Tonight it Potato night smile
