New food preservation methods and the rise of food sensitivities

[MagsJ]

After having now recently accepted my condition, and been booked in for a therapy analysis appointment on Friday, I can wholeheartedly say (well not really wholeheartedly, under CF conditions.. causing the heart rate to lower) that I think perhaps I was too hasty in my acceptance.. in my eagerness for closure on the entire matter.

[MagsJ]

Still being caught out by some random toxin or other, but I'm learning how to balance out their effect with an intermediate remedial cure.. and in turn a reprieve.

Gotta report a local shop to Trading Standards for selling fake goods... been in pain and suffering gut inflammation because of it, so any loyalty to them has been overridden by the pain I've been put in.

I dearly hope you feel better soon. Post their name on sites as well, others may need that information.

I am doing what I always do at the beginning of each year, which is become very strict with my eating regimen and so not veer off the correct eating path that enables me to be symptom free. To be bloated or not to be bloated? errr.. that's an easy one.

Still in the fatigue cocoon/in the grip of its hold, but managing it a little better, and coping with it on and off.

Sounds like adrenal fatigue.

[MagsJ]

Symptoms for adrenal fatigue range from dry skin, hair, feeling tired all day, low sex drive, weight loss, insomnia or poor sleep, depression, anxiety, etc. Sounds a bit like chronic fatigue syndrome, doesn't it? But for CFS/ME crew, joint and muscle pain, tender lymph nodes and sore throat are symptoms we call our own.

I'd definitely call them my own, but I'd prefer I didn't have to..

Only 8 and 9 apply to me.. prolonged fatigue and sensitive to bright light, the remainder have rarely ever applied to me so adrenal fatigue might occur somewhere along the chronic fatigue journey.

After having watched the videos after posting the links.. my response to them is:

I guess it's about suffering in daily (painful) silence until the pain decides to one day subside, but one day when.

I was out of London on Saturday and my symptoms alleviated.. though the fatigue was still activated as the day wore on, but there were less factors around to trigger it... is CF solely a big city ailment?

I'm a big believe in the hygiene hypothesis.

This also feeds into things like how our foods don't have crazy levels of afflatoxin so we don't get stomach cancer like we used to. Bladder cancer in on the rise, but that's a different discussion.

All this (and now fibromyalgia to add to the heady mix) because of some local anaesthetic injections that floored me... I'm guessing it was a more modern type that I didn't take well to at all.

Crisps that aren't over-preserved are back on our supermarket shelves since Article 50 was triggered.. I've had some, yum.

The additives issue was an EU instigation, so I hope it's on the reverse and I get my quality of life back.. along with more food choices again.

How changes in cell metabolisation are behind the cause of chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.. amongst other metabolic illnesses.

What is causing this change in cell metabolisation?
