Excess mucus production

Hello everyone,

I am trying to investigate a condition of excessive mucus in the body. I don’t know if this is related to other conditions I’ve seen discussed on this group like leaky gut, or candida (I’m still trying to understand these conditions as well as understanding there differences).

For years I have had excessive mucus production. For example, I can remember for as long as I can remember that I would hack and spit mucus most all of the day. I would also especially do this in the morning for the first few hours after waking up. When it was cold outside, my nose would run excessively. Although I didn’t think it was a big deal at the time growing up, I have always had this problem, and it has gotten worse over the past 2 to 3 years along with additional allergy symptoms. What was interesting, I didn’t have the typical allergy symptoms until the last 2 to 3 years. For example, pollen didn’t effect me, no puffyness, no swelling, no problem around cats or dogs, etc…

Anyway, since being on ER4YT for past year, my symptoms get significantly better especially when adhering to the ER plan.

Here is the other interesting thing that happened to me when I was around 15 years old. I saw an iridologist(spelling?). An Iridologist looks at the iris and can determine many things going on in your body. For example he was the first one to identify this excessive mucus production in my “gut”. This is identified my the yellowish color around the pupil on the inside of my blue iris’. This causes my eye to be a “hazel” color as opposed to a solid blue color”. There are many other things that the Iridologist told me that was right on the money as far as symptoms I experienced at the time! Possibly there are others of you, especially in the fields of chiropractic, accupuncture, herbalist, who are familiar with the study of the iris.

Anyway, is the excessive mucus production related or not to candida, or leaky gut, or is it completely different? And is there any supplements which greatly improve this condition? ER4YT definatly helps, and maybe long term this condition will clear up completely or at least partially with ER4YT.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Hi, I’m new to the list, have been lurking for awhile now.

    I have started the “0″ eating pattern and find it so very hard to avoid the “avoids” I love………like Ice Cream.

    I’ve had Lyme Disease for about 5 years, and am finally in remission, after much abx treatment……and now I am trying to restore some balance to my body again.

    I feel following D’Adamo’s diet will be very helpful….I heard him talk a few years ago at a Health Expo…and followed the diet then and did very well….this time I am having trouble sticking to it.

    I too suffer with lots of Mucus, very disgusting, at time it is so bad, it will put me into such a coughing spell, I will throw-up all the mucus……..it seems to be triggered by almost anything. Cold air, walking, exercise, food, and just breathing………..wish I could figure out the allergens causing this problem………Glad to be aboard this group.

    I find that eating animal fats, especially dairy produce, increases mucus in my case.
