Aberrantatavia Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'm not sure this is the right spot for this, but I'm considering another whole 30 now that I have some of my health issues under control. I did my first whole 30 almost exactly 2 years ago and minimal results from it was what made me go to the doctor to determine any underlying issues. I was diagnosed with hypothyroid, adrenal fatigue, a genetic mutation, and lack of ability to absorb nutrients effectively. I've made some progress after a long road and now I want to see if the whole 30 could give me that jump start I need to really feel better. One of the things I'm concerned about is removing raw milk kefir because it gives me relief from inflammation due to fibromyalgia. I also am struggling with my perspective given that nothing I do seems to really help. Which is a crappy attitude and i realize I need to turn that thinking around... Just seems easier said than done at the moment. I found great benefits in some ways when I did the last whole 30, like clear thinking and better sleep . Also, I get leg cramps and the only thing that seems to help is a glass of raw milk daily. Giving up the dairy isn't a problem, but I need to find an alternative that doesn't make my symptoms worse by not having the nutrients in the dairy.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted August 26, 2014 Moderators Share Posted August 26, 2014 I found an article that makes a variety of suggestions on food therapy treatments for leg cramps that includes a variety of Whole30-compliant foods. Implementing a variety of the ideas should make sure you get all the nutrients you need. http://thehealthyeatingsite.com/remedy-for-leg-cramps/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberrantatavia Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Thank you for the link. I do eat many of the foods suggested regularly but for whatever reason, raw dairy has been my only "cure" for the leg cramps. I might try some liquid magnesium for a few days to see if that will get me through a whole 30. I appreciate the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
