So, I went to the naturopath again today. As you know, on my last visit she had me do a blood test to determine possible food intolerances. They screen you against 93 different foods and I was afraid they’d tell me I had to give up something I actually love like coffee, tea or eggs. But the results were better than I thought:
I have to eliminate white rice, sheep’s milk, and cola (i.e. coke). White rice might be difficult but she said I can have brown rice, which makes it a lot easier. As for the others, I don’t drink sheep’s milk or cola drinks at all.
I should also reduce (i.e. not have it more than twice a week): soya beans, rye, wheat, grapefruit, pineapple, and yeast (baker/brewers). Hmm, I guess it means I need to reduce consumption of bread. Reducing soy is the harder part since I have been trying to increase my consumption of it recently and I was actually getting used to it. Oh well, I guess it was too much of a good thing.
But like I said before, at least it wasn’t essential foods (for me) like onions, garlic, coffee, nuts or chili peppers!
Acho que eu não saberia viver sem arroz.
Bjs
desde que eu possa comer arroz integral… tudo bem…
oh, I just remembered that shushi has white rice!!! my world is goingto end!!! how can there be life without sushi?? I can’t promise I’ll eliminate it completely from my diet… First step will be to reduce our weekly visit to the sushi restaurant to twice a month… then we’ll see…
