Emma Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Stinging nettles that you dried! How very cool. I saw that you made turmeric coffee and tea - do you just add some turmeric to your coffee? And how much? And do you notice it helping? Lots of questions!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lelani Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hi Emma: Yes the turmeric really does help. I take a tsp 3 times a day. I just add it to my black coffee. I don't mind it at all. When I am whole9 I make myself a lovely cup of cocoanut milk (full fat) 1tsp tumeric, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp cocao, 1 tsp honey, heat it altogether in a pot, just before bed. so soothing. If you dry your own stinging nettles (you may know this) be sure to use 1st years and of course use leather gloves. once they are dried they don't sting.

lelani Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 Ps. Further to my totally organic house. I have now added Himalayan pin salt to our stores. Still have some left over stuff to use up. I don't waste anything and my hubby is so good for that. ha. Had some at a friends the other day and it didn't seem to bother me at all. Sea Salt. table salt always bothers my legs and make my pain worse, adding to an already inflamed body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Hope you're feeling better! The kids had the stomach bug at our house this last week and it wasn't fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lelani Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 Well feel much better today, Wonderful thing about clean eating is that when you do get a bug or whatever, it sure doesn't last long... Lots of apple cider vinigar. olive oil/lemon juice and stinging nettle tea, just in case it was a kidney stone. Don't get them too often but this works great. I don't eat anything to cause them but sometimes one will rear its ugly head. This combination of ingredients relieves the pain and dissolves then quick. Dawned on me yesterday it might be a kidney stone. Nasty painful. but all but gone today. Day 14: Breakfast: still with soup Lunch: chicken salad, with olives, green peps, onions, mushrooms, romaine, leaf, dressing. yum Dinner: Sausage sliders made with, Shredded zucchini, carrots, onions & garlic (ground fine), stinging nettle, tumeric, s & P sauteed in olive oil slowly. served with apple cider coleslaw (cabbage, carrots, chives (from the garden) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lelani Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Day 15: Yesterday went well, going to my Nephews for Dinner they were going to buy A & W chicken, but I said I would make my Sausage sliders with Cranberry and Orange sauce. Yum Didn't eat any eggs yesterday and my pain level is down quite low. "Haven't ate any nightshades either.... Hmmm. Ok back to no eggs, no nightshades for the rest of my whole30 and see how the pain is. Gosh I love my wonderful eggs... and they get fed only organic .. and my tomatoes..... oh well if that is what is causing the pain it would be worth it not eating them. Ok Tomatos are my favorite food on earth... We shall wait and see and give it a chance. Sad..... Breakfast: home canned salmon, fried mushrooms, garlic and green onions in coconut oil, stinging nettle tea with ginger root. Keeping up with the pain med: ie: 2 tblsp of olive oil, 2 tblsp. squeezed lemon juice, 1/4 cup apple cider viniger (about 3 times a day) Stinging nettle and Ginger tea throughout the day at liberty. Repeat Olive oil treatment as pain re-occurs. (this is not muscle & joint pain I am addressing, it is either Pleurisy pain or a kidney stone, either way this works well. I get pleurisy from smoke and we have been burning outside. Used to be cigarette smoke was the only thing that gave me it but now any smoke can bother. Don't think it is a kidney stone, but this pain med combination works really well. and totally whole30. I will not take prescription anything unless life or death in hospital, do what you want to me dying situation. Drives my Doc nuts. Ha.. Lunch: I was going to have some canned tomatoes (not much else left in the pantry) but as I am cutting out eggs don't want to confuse myself if nightshades are causing my pain. will try some again at the end of my whole30. Sooo what for lunch our cupboards are pretty empty and my garden is not yet growing. We live an hour from shopping, will go tomorrow, Budget is pretty Bleak too. Ha Soooo Lunch today. Coleslaw and Salmon, Dinner: Moose steak with hmmm I hate it when we don't have too much left in the pantry... Oh found some green beans, more coleslaw, boiled potatos, (they are nightshades so won't eat them, just for hubby " Pretty much down to the last of those from the garden. (Note to self grow more, can more) One onion left, sautee that with some big garlic cloves and dehydrated Kale from garden. Ok that should be good. Pain level holding on "LOW" so far today it is 10:30 am Pacific time. Note to shelf: List of Nightshade family fruits and vegetables. Oh I love em all sooooo sad. Potatos, tomatos, peppers, tomatillos, eggplant, (hate it anyway)OM Goodness Sweet Potatos and Yams are not nightshades Yay I did not know this. All the studying research I never thought to check That makes me soo happy. I know what I am buying tomorrow. Hmm Can I grow them up here I will find out. The berries I eat are ok.

lelani Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Day 23. I blew it big time last night. Why I ask myself. Depression, worry, anxiety. no matter how hard i try I seem to be aimed to feel sorry for myself. Errg.. Well get up and fight I say. so today, it is anti Candida whole 30 all the way I am starting this today (have already) I only did a whole22 this month but, I am patting myself on the back. Try try again. I think Candida is taking me over. too much fruit and potatoes I know this but some how I think because it is whole30 this is ok and my body will straighten itself out. But it can not. I must get rid of the Candida overgrowth. Went to the doc for more blood tests etc. just in case my extreme pain is something I might need help with. All my other blood work is good ie: cholesterol etc. I am finishing off my whole30 for April even though I have to restart. Then May first I will officially start my ANTI Candida whole30. Day 1 of restart to finish. Breakfast: 2 eggs fried in cocoanut oil, 1 carrot, onion & cauliflower sauteed in cocoanut oil, Himalayon salt and organic pepper, coffee with cocoanut milk (full fat) comfort food for me today, extremely depressed, on the scary side. Lunch. & Dinner I will post tomorrow. Finishing work then going out to garden as pain will allow. Going on Anti Candida means veg and meat with very low carbs, I will allow myself one carrot a day to keep sugar levels even but not enough to flair up the Candida.. I have chosen first thing in the morning for that. No fruit or starchy veg at all for 3 months. I am going to kick this candida in the ass once and for all.

lelani Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 I knew it would take me a few days to brush up on my anti Candida diet. I know carrots are a no no. so No to carrots, I will miss you for at least 3 - 6 months. I will add you and apples back when the time comes. I had Sauteed hamburger, onions, garlic and celey with green cabbage slaw for lunch today. Cause I am lazy I think I will have this for dinner as well. Hubby will add some home made spelt bread and we are done. for today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
