Food: Hypersensitive; Hyposensitive or somewhere in the middle?

I'm really sensitive to what I eat.

At the moment I feel a lot better when I eat no carbs such as potatoes and wheat. I eat mostly vegetables and organic meats and also have a probiotic food like yogurt or kefir, quite a bit of it every day. Just started mixing a bit of raw honey in with the yogurt or kefir too, so yummy! I drink sauerkraut juice too. I eat fruit quite regularly too, mostly apples and grapes. I like to juice my own oranges too using an old-fashioned hand-operated orange press where you squeeze the chopped-in-half fruit onto the press and the liquid gathers in the tray around it.

The probiotics seem to make it easier to digest everything else. 

I almost never eat out at the moment though hopefully I'll be able to one day not too far away without getting great digestive upsets. 

I mostly drink water.

I tend to avoid sugar at the moment as in the past I noticed things like Coca Cola or ice cream made me very sleepy and feeling overwhelming urges to have more sugar. I do have maple syrup though, for example in a sauce mixed with cider vinegar and thyme with pork steak.

I'm trying to re-introduce carbs but am convinced potatoes are not much good for me. They give my body the shakes, even when cooked super healthily like boiled. I'm going to try some boiled white rice soon.

Oh my goodness! You completely confused me by changing your name! I've spent the last hour wondering how your post had disappeared because I thought you couldn't have deleted it as Cloudy Mountains had already replied to it. I've only just cottenned on to the fact that you've changed your username and not actually deleted your post!!!

It must be difficult having food sensitivities?

I'm glad that not eating carbs is making you feel better though! Honey in yoghurt sounds tasty! I've never had sauerkraut juice! Fruit is good, I'm really into pineapple and pink lady apples at the moment. I still use a hand operated press for squeezing oranges/lemons/limes when I need to use their juice in cooking.

It's good that the probiotics are helping you to digest everything else, do you become dependant on the probiotics?

I don't eat out often but I've been out, a couple of times for a meal at a relatively new Afro-caribbean restaurant, their food is really good! What type of restaurant would you eat at if you did eat out? There's a Hungry Horse near here which is good too :-)

Water is good, I'm trying to replace some of my drinks of coffee with water instead!

I swear that sugar is addictive! I haven't eaten chocolate or anything sugary since last year (apart from a few bits around Christmas time) and since not eating it, I don't crave it, I really couldn't care less for chocolate or sweet food at the moment. However, I used to be so addicted to chocolate and sweet things like cakes and biscuits, if you eat them regularly then your body gets used to it and craves them every day. 

I always make sure that I eat enough 'good' carbohydrates such as potatoes/rice/pasta/ otherwise my energy levels drop, I can't have a meal that doesn't include carbohydrates otherwise I get faint. Be careful though if you are sensitive to carbohydrates.

Sauerkraut is so good!

Potatoes are actually quite a common intolerance, especially when you don't eat them much. They share the same family as tomatoes which can have the same effect. Both belong to the Nightshade family, they contain Solanine which you can build a tolerance to, they are bad for any inflammatory illnesses. In sections of Chinese society they aren't eaten. You can build tolerance but if you have arthiritis or IBS try to avoid them.
