That does sound a little scary! It may have been just the release of toxins in general....as it’s not just all about the copper. Thanks for the info. I appreciate it! I want to start the enemas and so I will proceed with caution.... Arienne   [End]

I did GAPS for just over 6 months. My gut pain went away and I lost 15 lbs. It did nothing for my fatigue or my constipation, but I realized it was the grains that caused the gut pain in the first place so I took them permanently out of my diet and currently use a lax version of the diet.

Hello All, Thank you for all of your replies. I drank bone broth daily for 3 years before I got sick, then I realized I had a food sensitivity to chicken and I find the beef bone broth nauseating! I feel am well hydrated due to the fact that I am no longer dizzy and I can move about with a bit more swiftness than previously. And yes, Coconut oil had been my moisturizer of choice for many many years now...LOVE that stuff! Also, I did NB for three years with no results, so I am kind of left to my own devices trying to remineralize. I plan on getting a hair test in a couple months in o ...

Hello All, I have this tiny network of wrinkles all over the back of my hands, forearms and legs and some on my forehead. I’m only 40 and my skin looks older than my moms’s who is 25 years older than me. Now, I assume this will stop once the body gets into a healthy balance, but is it reversible?? Also, what are people using to either stop this or reverse this, if its even possible. Please share! Thanks so much, Arienne   [End]

Hello All! About two weeks ago I stopped taking NAC. I was taking 500 mg, 2x per day. Around this time I started experiencing some nausea after eating my first meal of the day and it was so bad that I had to take homeopathic Nux Vomica....which worked like a charm. I had been taking the NAC for over a year an a half and for whatever reason, I thought I should not take it any more. I did not have this pain or nausea before I starting taking it so this discomfort is new to me. I realize this could be gallbladder related to, but I never had an issues with that either. I suppose the best ...

Hi Paulette, I find your post very interesting, because I have not had a cold in years...since before I got sick. For me, I would consider a cold a good sign that my body is getting stronger. stronger enough to handle it..... having said that, I look forward to having one! I suppose we all have different immune systems. feel better soon :) Arienne   [End]

Hello there, My test looked identical to yours.....and for 3 years!! Yes, I did NB for 3 years and nothing, absolutely nothing shifted. I cant believe I stayed with it for that long! I did coffee enemas and the saunas, eradicated many infections using herbs and homeopathy via muscle testing and digestion improved, but still nothing with NB. I was obviously missing some other important part. I am still trying to figure it out! Best to you, Arienne   [End]

Adrenal cortex CAN be stimulating if the dosage is too high. My understanding is that the cortex only has cortisol in it, not adrenaline. It is also very nourishing to the adrenals. Thats all I got! Hope it helps. Ari   [End]

I’m so sorry to hear that, although its not really surprising. Ideally, one stays on a NB program for about 10 years or so. Of course, that does not mean it will take that long to return to health, but just as it took your body many years to become unwell, it take years to completely unravel all the layers. That is what NB is designed to do. I wouldn’t be surprised if most have not heard that from their NB practitioners, as it would certainly push a lot of people away. Dr. Wilson has been doing the program for many many years himself :) I am sure you will bounce back rather quickl ...

Hi anatomy, Yes, I have heard of this and I researched it....also, (not sure if anyone responded to your ozone post, but I am familiar with that as well)....ACT did not resonate with me, but of course, I found it interesting.....same with the ozone stuff, which is on my list of things to try.

Het there, those red dots, raised or flat are cherry angiomas. I cant remember precisely what causes them (of course in allopathic circles, they have NO IDEA), but i seem to remember that they have to do with copper toxicity or , my god, I had it on the tip of my tongue......having to do with some toxicity having to do with the thyroid..... They are absolutely benign and harmless, so no panicking!!! :) Ari   [End]

I have been wanting to get a glucose monitor for a while now and with the recent posts regarding toxic hunger, I now want to get one and see for myself. I would really like some guidance as to what to look for when purchasing one. Is there any one brand that is better than the rest? Any special features I should consider? Any input would be greatly appreciated since I do not know anything about them. Thanks so much, Arienne   [End]

If there is stress on your adrenals, your liver becomes congested and vice versa....if your liver is congested that creates stress in the body depleting the adrenals....but if you focus too much on liver detox, you’ll stress the adrenals further...so support both liver detoxification and the adrenals. Slowly and gently is key. best, arienne   [End]

Perfect timing because I was just going to post information in response to the few dehydration issues people have been having lately. There is a new electrolyte powder product that I just ordered from www.selinanaturally.com This s the company who makes Celtic Sea Salt. The mix has no sweetener and its tastes just fine!   [End]

Hi lalobear, I did not choose the Bruce Lee pic, but it sure is appropriate! To answer your question, Just listen to your body :) If you don’t feel like the carrot juice will benefit you, then don’t do it. I personally would not take anyones dietary recommendations as gospel, as there is no ”one size fits all”. I feel the carrot juice is far too sweet and to me, its just pure sugar, in one of its many forms. Best, Ari   [End]

Hi Marie, I juiced for years with success but as my health started spiraling out of control which led to CFS, I was no longer able to tolerate it. I was juicing mostly greens and a bit of beet as I have for many years avoided sugar so fruit and carrots where not apart of my juicing protocol. If you run into any issues, perhaps diluting the juice with water will lessen the effect. Best to you and your continued success! Ari   [End]

lalobear, The reason you felt worse was more than likely due to the fact that your detoxification pathways are less efficient with AF, and you may have been experiencing more detox which was uncomfortable and put more stress on your body xx   [End]

Perhaps you wake up dehydrated because you are not consuming any hydration while you are sleeping, unless, of course, you wake up through out the night to drink? Having said that, I can only assume most people are dehydrated upon waking. How about drinking a large glass of water when you awake along with some celtic sea salt to rehydrate. Also, your grogginess could very well be low cortisol as many people with adrenal dysfunction have low cortisol in the am (just the opposite of what it should be). Well theres my 2 cents worth,.. Hope this helps :)   [End]

Yes, coconut water would be excellent as well. It used to be used in IV form and administered to the dehydrated in order to restore electrolytes.   [End]
