Hi, ladies!
I saw the naturopathic doctor today and he's recommended that I follow quite a restrictive diet for at least the next 4 weeks up until my scopes are done, and the follow up visit we may be able to loosen those restrictions some.
Part of the restrictions were decided based on the results of the electrodermal food testing I had done today:
no pork, no dairy, including casein and whey
no buckwheat, oats or wheat
no coconut or peanuts (or peanut butter)
no avocado
no corn or corn products (!)
no onion
no tomato
no alcohol (!)
no coffeed (whew, so glad I'm not addicted to that !)
no MSG
no sugar cane
no yeast, either bakers or brewers
In addition, he recommended that at this particular time I eat no grain other than rice, and avoid citrus fruits.
I don't like seafood - in fact, crab and lobster make me nausea in a big way.
He also suggested not to overdo it with eggs and potatoes.
I do have free reign with goat's milk products, and although he suggested more fish, he didn't restrict meat other than pork.
So, now that I've finally adjusted my diet (prior to this) to have lots of whole wheat pasta, multigrain bread, etc, I have to start all over again!
Do any of you have great recipes with rice and chicken or fish; without tomato sauce, etc??
I made a point tonight of finding a vegan butter substitute, rice flour and goats milk so that I can make a white sauce. Alright, I haven't successfully ever made a nice white sauce, but mushroom soup is now out of the question, so I'll have to learn.
He did not give me restrictions on spices. I'm pretty sure I can't eat ginger, but I like to use basil, cumin, coriander, fennel, nutmeg, curry powder, clover, dill and other spices.
If you have any great recipes, or can recommend a great site with such recipes, please either post or PM me. I figure it will take me about a day to be bored of grilled chicken and rice with vegetables.![]()
Thanks so much!
