    With me, by lowering my acids in my body, it then allowed my body to start to heal, absorbing the vitamin and minerals from food again that I had became deficient in. In my previous message I mentioned tea had tannic acid I meant to say tannin acid. The doctors never guessed right with me Wheatwacked, I had to work it out for myself. As long as I don’t h...

    I know it is things we have always loved but to get well we have to swap them for things gentler on our bodies, there are alternatives, I craved tea for months and months but I didn’t give in and now I don’t even think about it, I have got used to my herbal tea I only have one day and many of them I don’t like but I do like Peppermint and Camomile, there...

    Tea, was not good with me it has Tannin in (Tannic acid)

    Hector cheese has lactic acid in and if your body has a build up you are adding to it so you will get symptoms every time you eat or drink something with it in, that is what happened to me, it will take time for your body to heal but you may notice some improvements quite quickly, I thought I was ok still having Greek yogurt but eveytime I had it, I would...

    Hello Hector Have you been tested for Lactic acid build up in your blood stream and your body, it can cause all sorts of problems, and nerve pain being one of them, I believe this is what happened to me, no blood test showed this up, so I removed things from my diet that made me acidic ie, Dairy, Tea Coffee, Alcohol and in time I got better, I drink...

    Hi Jenny ohh that’s a shame your daughter is not doing so well, stress has such an impact on our bodies. I hopes the symprove works for her, I haven’t heard of it before, getting Vitamin D is so good for us too, preferably from the sun, could she get away for a bit to get some sun and a break from all the stress of work ? Take care Jackie

    Hello Jenny I was wondering how is your daughter getting along, is she feeling better now ?

    Hello Wilson All my symptoms were down to Dairy, I never connected them to Dairy until 52 years later as i always thought Dairy was good for me, it was only by chance that I discovered it was Dairy was when I was consuming a lot more than usual that my symptoms were becoming a lot worse, then I made the connection so I removed Dairy from my diet and...

    I’m doing well thanks Chris, missing the Dairy a lot, I’m finding more and more alternatives but none of them match the taste of Dairy unfortunately, there is a new site called Stuff that works which you may find interesting to look at, I can’t believe how many of us have allergies now. Did you ever take a breath hydrogen test for your milk intolerance as wh...
  10. Jackie Garrett
    It’s just a thought, I always think back that’s how I made my connection. All the best.
  11. Jackie Garrett
    How are doing Chris, are you getting better ?

    Hector When I was getting really bad nerve pain and I mean so bad I just wanted to cry, I couldn’t bend my fingers i had pulling pain in my arms, pain so bad in my neck, shoulder and would radiate in to my chest, I thought what have I been doing lately that was different in my diet, because I wasn’t drinking Tea or Coffee anymore I started to drink hot...

    Hello Hector C Are you sure that Dairy is not an issue with you too, I noticed you said you eat cheese, when I came off all Dairy and high histamine foods/ drinks all my life long symptoms went away, things that made me worse were Tea, Coffee, Alcohol, preservatives anything with Lactose or starter cultures in, so watch out for any supplements/ meds...
  14. Jackie Garrett
    Thankyou Wheatwacked for your comments. Yes a lot of people are saying how important vitamin D is in our diets, a lot of supplements will have Lactose as a filler, so those of us who are Lactose intolerant must watch out for that when purchasing their supplements.

    Scott, we are advised by our vets not to give milk to Cats, I know in the supermarket there is Kitten milk in a pouch, I’m not sure what’s done or removed or added to that milk to make it suitable for them to drink ? I don’t know if dogs are recommended to drink it.

    I think things through a lot and I question a lot of things, in a way I hope my theory is proved wrong because dairy is so nice and there’s nothing better than butter on your toast. Thanks Trents
  17. Jackie Garrett
    Well Trents both cause problems I believe with raising histamine in the body but with cows milk you are ingesting a histamine that’s for a calf to make it grow into a big animal, and I question what that particular histamine is doing to our body it’s full of hormones as well. Is this the start of our allergies? Is this the underlying cause ? then it makes us ...
  18. Jackie Garrett
    I still believe my theory, maybe some of those people still have to watch how much Dairy they have before they have symptoms, maybe because their levels of histamine are lower their bodies can cope better because they are not having the gluten as well, in time I may be able to cope with small amounts of Dairy, but I don’t want to try quite yet. Once you t...

    There is an awful lot of information out there some contradict others, but it down to us and seeing what affects us, making a food Diary is a good way of finding out what we can react too, I hope everyone on this site can find a solution like I did, I wish you all the very best.
  20. Jackie Garrett
    That’s really good that some people improve by avoiding gluten, but what about the people that are still struggling, I just want to point out a few things that helped me and avoiding things with higher histamine may help others, you may not have to follow it long just until levels are lower, it’s just something to look at and see if it helps, fermented foo...

    Thank you Wheatwacked for that information, I do try and make sure I go outside and get sun when I can, i went to a functional Dr. Who said I was low in Zinc this was before I withdrew milk from my diet and had a lot of symptoms ,will go back and see if that’s rectified itself especially after I have changed my diet. She had this funny sort of machine t...
  22. Jackie Garrett
    Trents it’s because of what I avoided after many years of symptoms I got well and it made me realise what effects some food/ drinks has on our bodies. So to me it all just makes common sense.
  23. Jackie Garrett
    If we don’t question things how are we ever going to find out the answers ?
  24. Jackie Garrett
    Yes but Gluten and Dairy are added to so many things and that’s where we get accumulation it’s in a lot of things, to go into things deeper to find these answers which I really want to know we have to ask lots of questions, now I believe and it’s my belief that milk is the underlying cause and some of you won’t agree but that’s my opinion and I’m being h...
