I'm going to start hopping on the green banana and cocnut milk smoothie routine.
Trying to determine triggers is so annoying isn't it? Just when we think we had a great day or two, we go and do the same things for another two days and end up with different levels of pain. Or like u said, something as simple as over eating can do us in. Or was it the workout;) ? Or was it the position of my seat in the car and the fact that I sat in it for too long on the way back from the gym bcuz I had to pick up my Wife? It's a constant learning curve but well worth paying attention to.
I agree, I'm completely sold on the RS in general. I just picked up a few fifferent prebiotics based on the gastalreality write up. Glucomannan – from konjac root, Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), Larch Arabinogalactan and pectins. They're unproven and under studied but I'm willing to give them a go. Nice and cheap too.
I forgot until you mentioned it but when I frst started taking the boron supplement, I woke up two nights in a row from a SERIOUS splitting headache. They only lasted about 5 mins each time but I remember questioning at the time wether it was that or something else?
Crappy deal about your Dad. Sorry to hear that but glad to hear he's getting a bit of help from your recs. My Mom has hodgekins lymphoma. She's beaten it once and has been an absolute soldier throughout. I REALLY hope your Dad is able to regain his health!
You seem to be the bravest of the bunch here, Dlee. If you run into a kind of cooked and cooled starchy/RS food that definitely doesn't bother you, I'd love to know what it is. I'm feelig in control of my symptoms at the moment and might start venturing out again into the big bad world of starchy foods. I'm thinking a big batch of cooked carrot and broccoli mash. Yep, I'm pretty rebellious, livin' life on the edge
