Hi--I'm about 4 days post Whole30 and yesterday introduced maple syrup (just a few drops in my tea twice...about 1/2 a tsp) and whole milk (half a cup in a latte yesterday...tasted gross, and I've been craving it all month!...and then some in my tea last night) and I noticed last night I had the usual bloating from post Whole30 in my upper stomach. I'm guessing milk would be the culprit rather than the maple syrup? I know I should have introduced them separately... you live and learn... Thanks! Lucy

Thanks so much. Perhaps you're right, though I have been eating rather a lot of fruit I'll have a look through those links. I'm hoping once I'm done I can go paleo--I certainly will if this is the effect. Anything to get my driver's license back and my health back on track.

For the last 4 months, I've had a seizure disorder that has me pretty much housebound. I have, on average, 4-5 seizures a day that can last anywhere from 5 minutes to 4 hours (yes, I know!) They cause my whole body to shake and tense, shake and tense, rinse and repeat. I'm on Day 6 of my Whole30, and I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I'm having fewer seizures and they're not nearly as intense. Can something in my diet really be contributing to these seizures? It seems crazy if that is the case, but I feel thankful nonetheless. Perhaps I'll even get my life back eventually. Has anyon
