Re: Cervical inflammation
by kathryn101 20 y
Angielynn...Has Lichen Sclerosis been mentioned? If not...
what kind of inflammation are you talking about?
Lichen Sclerosis is on the order of a Yeast infection...but
horribly, HORRIBLY worse! You really need to get the biopsy..
you barely feel it...it’s not as bad as it sounds. That would
confirm or rule out Lichen Sclerosis, also. It’s very unlikely
it’s cancer. But you DO need to know for sure what it is.
Do you drink a lot of orange juice? Just something like that
could be causing you a problem.

REVERSE Lichen Lichen Sclerosis!! 2/2012
by healthygirl110 12 y
I’ve been able to reverse Lichen Sclerosis by going on a Low Oxalates diet. What are oxalates? Oxalates occurs in low to high amounts in a wide range of plant foods including fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, spices, herbs, and almost all nuts and seeds. Meat, dairy, and eggs contain negligible amounts of oxalate. All of these foods are either low, medium or high in oxalates.
How does eating a low oxalates diet solve Lichen Sclerosis? For me I have a leaky gut. Why or how did I get a leaky gut? I have celiac disease.. (FYI..Oxalates from food travel out of your stomach and create a p ...
