MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Hi Tex, WOW. I didn’t know about the stories of pets developing MC. Seems the environmental factors/toxins played a big role in those cases. I’m hoping that at the very least, removing the mold in our bathroom can only help my symptoms and recovery, and relieve his issues. I really hope he’s not dev...

Oh and one more thing. I’ve been struggling with sleeping more than 7-7.5 hours the past several months. In the past, I slept 9-10 hours easily. Now, it’s like the moment I wake up I’m tense and my mind is already racing, hence the trouble falling back asleep. AND along with that, I’ve noticed some ...

Hi all, It’s been a while since I’ve posted, just wanted to give a quick update. Having normans most days, with occasional isolated “blips” here and there. Much more improvement in the past two months. My nausea has also improved drastically. I’ve also been very consistent about using topical magnes...

Hi all, Does anyone know of a good dental retainer that is gluten free that can be ordered online? Similar in style to the ones made by Invisalign. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24137038/ This article is what prompted me to investigate retainers more… I took a break from using my old retainer, but...

Alright, I agree. Seems it would be better for me to stick with topicals for now.

Hi all, so unfortunately I think I am already showing signs of not tolerating the oral mag. I took one pill (100mg) with a meal. And then 7 hours later, had some significantly loosened stool (went from consistent Bristol 4-5 to now a Bristol 6). I’m not sure how to interpret this. Should I stop it c...

Understood, I will give it a try. Thanks! I have recently started having some issues with insomnia. Pre-MC, I used to sleep 9-10 hours easily. But lately, I seem to be waking up after 6-7 hours and struggling to go back to sleep. My stress levels are low right now, so I'm wondering if this is a clea...

Thank you both!! I will go ahead then with Doctor’s Best.

This is the one, right? https://www.amazon.com/Doctors-Best-Abs ... D0RT0?th=1

What dose should I start with? And how high should I aim to increase the dose over time?

Hi Laine, you've got me excited about the idea of trying out pressure cooking. Thanks again for the advice.

Hi again Rosie, I had a follow up question. I’ve started researching magnesium supplements, since I’ve been able to tolerate spraying lots of homemade magnesium oil on my skin (using Ancient Minerals Mag, on arms, legs, lower back; 2-3x daily). Is there a liquid or tablet version you recommend? I’ve...

Hi Laine! I hadn’t thought about pressure cooking, I will definitely have to try it now. For my turkey, I bake thighs/drumsticks/breasts in the oven until they’re nice and crispy, usually overcooked according to the internal temp. I found a brand of ground lamb (Thomas Farms) that works well for me,...

Rosie, thank you so much for your reply. I’m sorry for the delay in responding to you, life has been hectic recently and I haven’t been on the board in a bit. I agree with your advice, after putting some more thought into it, I realize that trying a multivitamin right now may do more harm than good....

Hi Tex and Rosie, thank you for your replies. Sorry for the delay in responding, it's been a busy week! Rosie, thank you very much for sharing your experience. Currently the only oral supplement I'm taking is vitamin D3 by Pure Encapsulations - it has very minimal ingredients (hypoallergenic plant f...

Hi Tex, thank you for the suggestion!

I am planning to look into this one more now. But so far I noticed that there a quite a few ingredients that I'm not sure if I can tolerate at this stage? Like the fruit blend and almonds for instance.

What was Rosie's experience with it?

Hi all! I would really like to start taking a supplement or multivitamin of some sort to cover my deficiencies. I am currently still eating a recovery diet (turkey, lamb, zucchini, yellow squash, white rice, coconut oil), though I am having normans most of the time. Testing new ingredients has been ...
