Digest Number 96
Thanks for letting us know about Steve’s list - what a goldmine of
information! After reading his “reasons why” list I’m more resolved than
ever to leave off the avoid foods.
Also, he has several herbs and supplements listed that aren’t in either of
Dr. D’s books, so that was enlightening. Believe I really must cut back on
the number of supplements I’ve been taking - perhaps now that I’m following
the diet closer than ever I won’t need some of them anyway.
What is the story on magnesium, though? For persons with fibromyalgia it’s
supposed to really help. Most fibro patients are O’s, yet Dr. D doesn’t
mention this as a needed supplement. I’ve been taking it for a couple of
years now, but maybe I don’t really need it. Anybody out there have an
answer on this?
