In reply to Peter Tkaczyk. Peter, I would encourage taking milk thistle (two or three per day) and/or five drops of dandelion root. For food, add one-half of a red apple, one-third cup of beets, and one medium carrot to your diet each day. DB

I have a slightly different question. I love in Norway and in the past I have had some natural Doctors just tell me without testing that I have something wrong with my liver. The reason being is that the skin on. My right foot gets dried out and the skin is peeling. It. As bad a few years ago then got better but now it’s back. What can I do to remedy the situation. Thank You very much. Peter

as a massage therapist, I see many clients with inflammatory issues, and although massage will relieve them temporarily of muscle pain due to certain inflammatory conditions like MS, Fibromyalgia, RA, I try to get them to assess their diet to attempt to get at the root of the issue. There may also be a tie-in to many body aches, pains and issues due to chronic Lyme disease being treated incorrectly, dismissed or misdiagnosed.

In reply to Diana Chapel. I would eliminate all grains for three months. I have read there can be issues with millet, and quinoa has been a marker on cross-reactivity testing; common with gluten sensitivities.

In reply to Bob Ackerman. What is interesting about "Leaky Gut" is it can be caused by a variety of factors; lack of oil that promote intestine healing can be an issue for some, gluten can cause inflammation in the intestine and low carbon dioxide on a blood test reveals a deficiency of L-glutamine. One's oil level and C02 can be assessed, eliminating gluten can be easy done by watching what one eats.

When eliminating grains for three months, does that mean all grains such as quinoa, millet?

Dr Bob,

I went off grains about 12 days ago. Prior to that I had chronic pain, mostly knee pain, but general aches and pains all over. Within the first 5 days the pain subsided. I now have no pain. This made a believer out of me. I have lost about 9 # already.
