In the county town I live in we have 1 and 1/2 endocrinologists. 1 neurologist office and 1 pain specialist. In fact today, I was told that the doctors my PA (Physicians Assistant) tried to refer me to are not accepting new patients. You can imagine the hard time I have had finding doctors I like and who are knowledgeable.
I have been looking for a natropath and the only one is one hour away. There are the general chiropractors and asyria specialists that sell vitamins and pills. I have tried those "healing" remedies from age 19-43 without any positive difference in health.
To my delight and surprise, I was blessed to find a PA who believes in treating the whole person. Including recommending, natural vitamins and food. Today she confirmed that many people are now having a sensitivity to wheat. She said many people are going to the "clean" eating and are feeling better. She defined clean as "not processed foods".
It seems difficult to cook"clean" everyday for those of us who work full-time. Making every meal from scratch seems super human. Like our moms, grandmoms or great-grandmoms. I have cooked at least one completely "clean" meal once a week for 21 years. Usually on Sunday. I just did not know it was called "clean". Lol.
Clean and gluten-free have been a simple adjustment for me, but it seems, not for my body. After my first gluten-month my body decided it needed more synthroid medication. I have been dizzy and nauseous with a constant headache and ringing in the ears for 30 days.
My uncle the pharmacist said once, "Healthy living through medication". For those of us who have to live and work towards being pain free everyday it is a saying that is comforting. Knowing we can't always control what goes on with our system, but someone somewhere made a fix for us from elements on this planet. A big kudos to those scientists and researchers.
Have a Happy Healthy Day.
