Re: The right and the wrong, the truth and the opinion, the real and the false...
understand that the power that heals you comes from within. its your mind, your heart, your will; its the creative, sustaining Spirit that flows thru you, these are the things that heal. start, and stand, firmly on that knowledge.
as for the specific protocols and conflicting "experts" - the answer is very simple. you have GOT to get in touch with your body. you have to learn to feel your body on a deep deep level. once you do this you will be able to feel almost instantly what is healing and what is toxic. what helped me get in touch with my body was juice fasting and meditation, along with liver and kidney cleansing.
then you have to try different things. try this, try that, try the other thing. then, as you try the different protocols, be very aware of how they are affecting you. pay very close attention to both the immediate and long term reactions your body has to specific foods and herbs and protocols.
also be aware that at one point on your healing journey one specific protocol may be jsut what you need. on another part of your healing journey a very different protocol may be called for. YOU need to become the ultimate expert on YOUR body. YOU have to get in touch with your body and learn what your body needs right now. do that, and let all the experts and arguers do their thing.
you should NOT give up your frinds. they are where they are, you are where you are. let them be in their space, don't even bring up the health food subject unless they insist. you can almost always find something on a menu somewhere to eat while others are filling themselves with toxic food. don't condemn them, accept them and enjoy their company. laughter, good company, good stories, and human sharing of thoughts and love are the BEST medicine, better than any food or herb.
you CAN heal, good luck to you!
