Re: I cannot conceive on this diet

No silver fillings, just a few root canals.
Here's my story, I am very interested in opinions about it. I think this testimonial might also be useful.

I am now a 26 year old woman, 4 feet and 4 inches, 99 lbs.

I lived in a very small and unpolluted town for the first 18 years of my life. During my childhood years my favorite food has always been meat (not organic) I did not have any dietary restriction. I also consumed processed foods like Sugar and white flour like most children do. Despite this, I was in very good health. I had my 1st period at 16. At 18 I had regular menses and weighed 105 lbs.

I went to live in a big polluted city at 19,I changed my diet to a vegetarian grain based diet with very little fats. I had a troublesome relationship ended very badly ( unwanted pregnancy and abortion and 6 months of birth control pill). I suddenly experienced lots of emotional and physical problems including loss of menses, very bad edema, clogged lymph system, water retention causing a sudden (in the space of a month)20 lbs weight gain. At age 20 I was emotionally wrecked and covered with hard and painful cellulitis even on my breasts and arms.

Trying to find a way out of it and not even recognizing myself I fell into anorexic behavior. I lost the 20 pounds, but then I lost control and reached 92 lbs. I ate of everything but in very small amounts. I was skinny but still very toxic and edema/cellulitis was still there.

I started to heal when I met the man who then became my husband 4 years ago. I recovered from anorexia and gained weight. When I reached 102 lbs, I got my menses
back and became pregnant after 2 periods. Edema and cellulitis started to go away a bit. I had an healthy pregnancy and baby.

During the following years I started to read about health and nutrition and 1 year ago I went 95% raw vegan. I have noticed many health improvements and my edema is slowly going away and circulation has improved a lot. My tissues look almost healthy now. I am skinny, but I still have some lymph clogging.

I am now much healthier than I have been in the past 7 years, however, I am not fertile. I am sure I would be fertile again just by adding animal foods and maybe grains to my diet but for some reason am afraid to change, since this has worked. I am interested in dr Weston's website and will keep on reading, some of it makes sense, however, I do not think that it is possible to detox on such a diet.
