Cure for digestive diseases?

There is nothing in any link that would invalidate my knowledge concerning hazardous chemicals, I was a safety advisor to a research institute within a university, or the logic I have employed to emphasize that separating chemicals found in food into natural = safe and synthetic/artificial = hazardous, is simply wrong.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Crohn's/Colitis and the steps you've taken to improve your health. It's inspiring to hear how much effort you've put into researching and exploring different diet plans to find what works best for you.

Making subtle but fundamental changes to your eating habits can indeed have a significant impact on health. Eliminating foods with chemicals and preservatives is a wise decision, as it allows you to focus on consuming whole, natural foods that can be more beneficial for your condition.

It's great to know that you've found a reliable source of information through your wife-to-be, who is a food professional. Having trusted guidance in your journey can make a world of difference.

Your experience and discoveries may indeed help others who are facing similar challenges with Crohn's/Colitis. Sharing what has worked for you might inspire others to explore healthier eating habits and consider the potential impact of chemicals in their food choices.

While there is still much to learn about IBD and its root causes, taking control of your diet and making informed choices is an essential step toward managing the condition and potentially reducing flare-ups.

Although we are aware that many everyday appliances, such as an airfryer, an oven, and a toaster, emits radiation, it is essential to consistently strive for clean and unprocessed cooking methods.

Thank you again for sharing your story and the resources you've found helpful. May your journey continue to bring you better health and well-being.

Id suggest listening to the links I added which it's clear you haven't

Synthesised = artificial in relation to chemicals.

Virtually everything in the realm of synthetic/artificial chemicals has had extensive toxicity testing. Usually it is the LD 50, which tests how much chemical either kills 50% of the subject animals (such as rats) or 50% of cultured mammalian cells. I knew someone who ingested a toxic chemical in a laboratory and the medics eventually contacted a retired scientist in a nursing home to find out the LD 50. As it happens the person had ingested more the dose lethal to 50% of rats (in a ratio to body mass), but after days on life support and other interventions, he survived. Artificial additives to food often have had more thorough testing than chemicals occurring naturally in food.

Like I said, each individual chemical, natural or man-made is unique as to its levels of hazard to a human ingesting it.

Note the word artificial in many answers.

I'm talking about chemicals like they are foreign objects (not meant to be ingested) that potentially could be the route cause if inflammation that then processes into disease.

Yes everything is chemical when you break it down, but to be clear I'm referring to toxicity.

However, pharmaceuticals are ingested, as are, if you are very unlucky, toxic mushrooms, plus I was replying to the specific wording in your later post, not answering thread-starting post.

My point is that everything is chemicals (except energy) and that synthesised chemicals are not inherently unhealthy, and naturally occurring chemicals are not inherently healthy. The healthfulness, or non-injurious nature, of any chemical will be individual to the particular chemical (plus dosage, interaction with other chemicals etc.).

For example, water is necessary for life, but if ingested in large quantities over a short time period, can be toxic (drinking more than a litre per hour can lead to water toxicity symptoms).

The idea is to ultimately strip out artificial and modified food stuffs and regain the goodness from well produced foods. Not don a loin cloth and move into a cave to hunt antelope

The logic is sound.

aye times were different. they lived out in the cold wet exposed weather naked, if we did the same youd understand that if we lived in their condition we wouldnt last as long. the human body has gone weaker due to reliance on modern things.

a human could once tank a direct hit from a rhinoserous and be fine but now our bodies are so weak our bones break from far less force.

and whats up with our teeth? such bad teeth and yet cavement didnt have toothpaste and they had perfect straight white teeth lol

*aren't included in food products

Those are included in food products which is what this post is about.

Also, we don't actually know the long-term effects of the chemicals used in any product as research is always evolving so I'm undeterred by that perspective I'm afraid

Well, quite a lot of natural chemicals are remarkably unhealthy, like alpha amanitin from death cap mushrooms, kills in about three days after eating. Also, many pharmaceuticals have positive effects on health - that is what they are designed to do. Perhaps without the beclometasone in my asthma inhaler, I might die, I would certainly be in increased distress and discomfort if I did not have it.

I guess I'm also supposing that perhaps all artificial chemicals we ingest lead to detrimental health outcomes?

Smoking, drinking, pharmaceuticals... the list is endless

Fair point. I'm referring to additives used to emulate natural food properties used in food manufacture which are increasingly being linked to disease manifestation through clinical testing.

Define chemicals

I would argue most of what you describe as the cause hear are chemical based causes with the acception of the sun damage to skin

But I'm also suggesting that these all cause inflammational damage which then leads to cancer.

So my suggestions on diet are ultimately about avoiding substances that cause inflammation in the body and lead to it worsening, so my points still stand

Good and thank you for changing the title from 'a cure for cancer?'.

Just to clarify. Not saying that diet may cure cancer. Just that it may contribute to it forming in the first place (mostly in the bowel and intestines)

I don't mean all cancers (I have adjusted the title, my bad), but digestive types perhaps.

Food safety is one thing, but I'm talking about food quality. Emulsiphyers for example are used to emulate good textural or food consistency. But they are unecessary.

Listen to the podcast link. He is passing on the latest research and valuable information which it sounds like you may benefit from hearing.

I hear you though

Glad to hear this will definitely help. I'm sticking 100% to chemical free ingredients and this is the best I've been symptomatically for 10 years so I wish you the same (I've been drug free for 4 years too)

Noted, will adjust
