Dear Alls,
it's been a while since i'm more and more interested in raw food movement and i find this discussion board one of the most useful health/food resources ever!
I'm 26 yo, live in a small far away country, have this small raw dairy business and starting up a chocolate production. fun loving, curious, adventurious, like everybody, but not like everybody anymore.
it's been more than a year since i face never ending health issues. I am at this point right now when i feel depression is taking over me and i don't have energy fight back the diseases that are attacking me anymore. It's just that i am doing what i can and it's not enough and i feel really tired emotionally and physically already, but in the depths of the heart i know there is a way but i'm still on a wrong path.
i had these tonsil infections, then i removed them, then somehow i got the prostate inflammation, then uti, been battling for over a year now, now kidneys are inflamed as well. then there is a problem with digestion from huge cocktail of antibiotics and other medicine. So, it seems that soon there will be no healthy organ in my body and i know what that means..
please, i ask for help. could you guys give me directions/strategy/suggestions/advices on getting my health back. i believe that every positive thoughts/ideas/suggestions/words will come back at ya synergetically!
and i think that other people who are facing same problems would appreciate reading all your suggestions, ideas. we have a strong and wise community of people down here, let's help and don't turn back on each other.
sorry if this topic sounds too pesimistic, but i hope it will turn out into really useful and interesting discussion.
blessings to all :)
p.s. maybe it will be possible to send truly amazing raw honey that we collect to some of you guys, as i said - it is synergy :)

Thanks bro! it means a lot :)
sisterbecky: i try to eat as healthy as possible and tried so many variations already.
first of all, i did not and am not eating too much raw, except fresh juices everyday and smoothies, salads. i try to use superfoods, exercises, saunas, meditation, fresh air, no smoking/alko, different herbs, natural and unnatural treatments.
at the moment i'm going to two/three doctors already and i think i need to concentrate more on self-healing, using extreme methods if necesary, like kidney detox, master cleanse, fasting.. but i don't have the system, where to start, what to combine, what to include, extreme! my last chance
superfood2: for how long do you suggest eating high fruit/veg excluding other things? and one more question, if there could be a problem when consuming sugars, as i know that bacteria could feed on that sugar (even if its fructose). what are your thoughts on that?
Dear Cami,
thank you for this detailed answer, it was nice reading it.
fist of all, i would like to ask how did you manage to find out to what are you allergic to? just eliminating or food tests?
I'm really happy that you are doing great right now! I think person can learn how to deal with his problems and to maintain it forever!
best wishes,
Zip
ambigious:
thank you for informative reply!
I am not taking any antibiotics or strong medicine at the moment, just random herbal stuff.
You are absolutely right about getting to my colon, it's been horrible digestion for a while now, just need some extra tests to find out what happened.
one thing about fasting makes me think that it might be a way: some time ago i did a short 2 day juice fast and it reduced urge to urinate to the minimum. could somebody explain, why that happened? this seem to be doing something that i don't understand fully but has a strong impact. when i came back to proper food, symptoms kinda returned.
just for those who face similar problems: all kind of sport activities (especially outdoors) really do their job, i guess by increasing blood flow in organs, some symptoms disappear for a while, others reduce as well.
ambigious, thanks for advice! will be preparing for juice fasting, just don't know for how long yet, as long as possible, i'm too skinny already :)
will buy GSE for sure
dreasraw, thank you for beautiful respond. it is well documented, that stress worsens things, so i try to be as relaxed, as possible. even to see myself from a third person position. will try to implement your suggestions to my strategy
camiheartsraw, will try to figure out who does reliable allergy testing. thank you for the tips!
