I'm curious about the extent to which people here have experimented with scrupulously organic diets, to see if it makes a difference for them.
I never felt like organic food mattered a lot to me, until I started eating _only_ organic food. Now when I stray from the path and eat something that is not organic, I often feel quite sick. On the other hand, as long as I am eating organic, I seem to be able to eat just about anything without getting sick (including things like sugar and wheat).
Moreover, my reactions to environmental toxins have gone down substantially since I've started eating all-organic. I'm not sure how much of the decrease to attribute to the organic diet (since I've been detoxing aggressively also), but I think that it may be related.
I'm increasingly suspicious that I am reacting to some toxin (probably Roundup) in non-organic food in the same way that people with this disease react to things like gluten or mold. That would explain why I didn't really feel much difference until I went really extreme in terms of avoidance.
I'm just one case though. So I'd like to hear more experiences, if folks have them.
Thanks much for sharing.
Best, Lisa
