Frequently Asked Questions

I’ll start filling this out, as soon as I get some questions!

Here’s some answers, to several questions from an anonymous source:

In general, when doing the elimination diet, I recommend stopping ALL supplements and any but essential life-saving drugs. That’s because there can be hidden ingredients which make the process of unmasking not work properly.

In regard to other diets, do not try and mix them. There are certainly some problems mediated via lectins but D’Adamo’s theories do not hold water and asking your body the truth is better than relying on any set diet.

On the Budwig diet, treat cottage cheese and the flaxseed oil as separate. Each food is a single unique entity. Actually, I would not recommend cottage cheese because it’s dairy, not because it’s a ferment (it isn’t, anyway). Milk is a big problem as a cancer causer.

In general, you won’t come to any harm from a few days off other programs while you sort out your own reactions. But rather than put back dairy, I recommend egg, if you tolerate it. The real point from Budwig’s theory isn’t milk or cheese: it’s sulfur and eggs are pretty rich in sulfur (the smell of rotten eggs comes from the amount of sulfur)!
