I'll start of by repeating (not for you Crohn2357, for anyone else who has recently tuned in) [edit - oops, that sounds like me being a smartarse shit, sorry, wasn't having a go at you Instant, i just referenced this thread in the other keto thread.] - Ketogenic diets are probably not where you...

Ketogenic diets have there place but there are issues that need to be thought through This thread covers a lot of the details... http://www.crohnsforum.com/showthread.php?t=44795 My advice..... There are much better diets for Crohn's than ketogenic. If you are determined to try it listen to...

Hi, sounds like your making good progress... Safe starch - “any starchy food that (after being properly cooked and prepared!) is low in fructose and relatively free from natural toxins (like lectins, saponins, and gluten and related proteins).” Doesn't mean you need a lot of it, increase...

Avoid radical changes and listen to what happens when you make small changes Anything in the 'Paleo' spectrum is worth considering, but avoid extremes Giving up gluten, reducing carbs, and eliminating processed foods is a basic starting point. Some form of elimination diet will do wonders to...

The first item in every category but one was organ meat, it was second in the other category, Cereals, on the other hand, generally rated low in the B vitamin ranking.... Make you wonder how ideas gets traction?

Hi, i'm doing ok, hope you're ok too, Yup, that's pretty much what he was saying, "It's important, we don't understand it, we don't know what we're doing, stop making wild claims." No, there is no one who knows more about how you feel than you, others might have (better or worse) theories...

Hi, "No veggies? I must've been crazy... " sortof... The fibre is/can be a problem when flaring/unwell etc -Low fibre tends to help during a flare and more fibre helps stay in remission, That's about feeding bugs - out of whack- starve 'em, in balance - feed 'em When in good health (whatever...

Glad to hear you are doing well. There is a little research as to which bacteria degrade histamines, do a google but so little research that any strong claims are probably exaggerations " Species that may be beneficial: Based on limited research into probiotics and histamine intolerance, the...

don't know if it's been posted, i know it was a thing a while ago.... http://www.medicaldaily.com/gut-microbiome-parasitic-worms-crohns-disease-381987?utm_source=internal&utm_campaign=right&utm_medium=related1 My takeaway from this..... NSAID caused thinning of mucous, parasites triggered...

I have dabbled with ketosis, and have felt better while in it but from what i've read i have not thought it safe to try to be permanently in ketosis. Having said that i am trying to cut back my carb to 50/70 grams a day to be intermittently in ketosis. I think most of the studies that i have...

No idea but let us know how it goes. I feel like I've had a hangover/head cold for about 5 years now

Crohn2357 my pleasure, i love those green cooking bananas curds are casein protein, whey is whey protein, not saying it's good, just saying it's different

crohn2357, have you considered whey protein?, while high in glutamine, whey is a "high quality protein" (those with complete amino acid profiles) . Just based on reading, no experience with it. I started with bone broth, gelatin and slow cooked gelatinous meats, and this looks like a good...

Firstly, i think L-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD - the enzyme that turns glutamate to GABA) is produced in the pancreas, and there are a lot of papers referencing the link between viruses and GAD autoimmune reactions, Pretty quickly gets past anything i can follow or comment on.... I did say...

It does sound good, there's just too many supliments and so many interactions, does my head in.... Need to bone up on methylation now, see how it affects glutamine/GABA.... or just buy a jar and see if the fog in my head clears a bit.....

yeah, could go either way? Glutamine to glutamate and then to GABA unless something is out of whack Suck it and see:lol2: not sure if it is totally right.... http://www.holistichelp.net/blog/how-to-increase-gaba-and-balance-glutamate/

complicated it is, biggest non-food source of histamines in the body can be the gut bacteria. some bacteria produce histamines and some degrade them. Histamine intolerance is (in my view) pretty much a symptom of disbiosis, but a symptom that prevents you from correcting the disbiosis. On top of...

crohn2357, i can not really offer any more advice, while i read alot about food and crohns, its way too individual, and i'm just some random guy..... i'm loving plantains and green cooking bananas, just fried in thin slices with coconut oil or lard. less sugar than bananas, but starch and...

Yeah, I looked into l-glutamine and it seems to be really helpful for alot of people. But I have anxiety issues so that's why I concentrated of getting it from foods (all the other associated amino acids in balance), and it seems to help. For every one article against it I find 10 or more in...

crohns2357, been thinking and all i can add is: slow cooked gelatinous stews, bone broth, gelatin and collagen hydrolysate, and if you can tolerate, half teaspoon of liquid off sauerkraut, building up slowly to real amounts
