Some notes from last nights reading - I downloaded recipe book from endo-resolved website, so far very interesting (not got on to recipes yet just lots of good info) and very empathetically written.
Cold-pressed, virgin coconut oil
Improves Crohn’s, IBS, and other digestive disorders
For those with Crohn’s and IBS, the anti-inflammatory and healing effects of coconut oil have
been shown to play a role in soothing inflammation and healing injury in the digestive tract.
For women with Endometriosis, this oil can be incorporated into your diet in many ways - as
cooking oil, added to salads in a dressing, as a spread in place of butter, or added to your
baking. And don’t forget that you can use it straight on your skin as a moisturiser.
Aloe vera juice
Pineapple to help with pain as it contains something called bromelaine
Decaffeinated green tea - caffeine is inflammatory
Lactobacillus acidophilus - get this from health food store to restore gut flora
Water – spring water or filtered 8 glasses daily
Sea salt only, others too loaded with additives
Noni Juice - miracle drink but as I have not heard of it I am more wary!
Supplements - confirmation that I was right to order Magnesium, zinc and calcium, Omega 3 and Vitamin B complex.
Still uncomfortable today but it is an at home day. I need to get on and read some recipes and decide what I am eating today.
My mum is lending me her smoothie maker as that will be my breakfasts for the forseeable future!
