RE: Help please, severe tendonitis
Hi @cath.
Thanks for taking the time to help. It is interesting, and logical that what we eat has a direct effect on our health. I generally stay away from supplements and have a pretty healthy diet.
P.S. I do love my chocolate... from time to time of course :D
Yes, you can get a sensitivity to any food, just depends if you have had leaky gut (can be caused by stress, candida, or in my case iron pills which is the toxic form of iron I found out the hard way), then whatever food leaked out whole and got recognized by the immune system now will trigger inflammation (as the blood is not supposed to see whole proteins leaking out from the gut, just digested amino acids). In my case it was chocolate that was causing tendonitis in my hands, but I also noticed when I eat kelp my arms get sore, so I think there is something in chocolate that resembles the proteins in tendons and my body became sensitized to chocolate as it leaked out and now thinks it should attack tendons and I think there is something in kelp that looks like ligaments in arms, now when I eat kelp my body wants to attack that... After stopping my daily chocolate my tendonitis went away completely. I bought a 1/2 liter of chocolate ice cream a few years later and the after eating it 3 days in a row the pain was coming back. I'm doing NAET treatments and maybe it will desensitize me to it.
