Hi,

Here is where I am at now. Every morning I eat yogurt with flax meal, flax oil and cinnamon. Cinnamon is supposed to be anti-inflammatory. I also drink a smoothie with plain yogurt, plain kefir, blueberries and stevia. At noon I take one slo-mag. It has 212 mg of calcium and 128 mg of magnesium. I read somewhere that you can't absorb more than 500 mg (I think) of Calcium at once. So I take it at lunch since I have calcium at breakfast. At dinner I take another slo-mag, 1 epo, and 2 fish oil. I am stil trial and error with the oils. I do best when I have a morning b.m. Most days I go first thing in the morning after water and coffee. I haven't been having to have so much fiber I think because wheat seems to be my major problem, although I suffer from symptoms of a mild case of sjogren's syndrome. That's why I think the oils help me so much. I may have to increase them a little because my face is not so dry when I have enough.

I found that when I took the oat bran at night, I couldn't take so much water or I would wake up all night to go to the bathroom. I just tryied to make sure I stayed well hydrated during the day. I am on a gluten-free diet and that has changed my stomach problems completely. Today is one of the first times I haven't had a b.m. first thing in the morning, so I'll have to have alittle more fiber this evening. Sometimes I go in the morning and once during the day, and sometimes just in the morning.

My daughter has also started a gluten-free diet and has noticed a huge difference after only 2 days. I suspect Mono-Sodium-Glutamat (Natrium Glutamat) may be aproblem for us also. i SOOO hope you find your answer. I have struggled with embarrassing moments and some isolation for 25 years!! What a relief and yet sad to have no cookies, cake, crackers, bread, sandwiches, muffins, pizza!! But I won't complain too much as it is worth it and my 13 year old daughter feels the same. I thought it would be a fight with her, but she is relieved that she too may be able to stop having close calls with embarrassing moments.

That is where I am at now. Also I am eating more green veggies--mostly salads. That along with limiting sweets also seems to be good for me and helps me not to have underarm odor. I suspect the kefir is a big factor as well. I do end up eating more meat than before. What else am I going to eat? I don't really like fruit--so I eat a lot of meat and salad, adding fiber when I think I need it. Let me know how things go. I soo hope something in here or anywhere will help!!
