Re: Iron deficiency

 

Thank you very much for your help.  Will try some of the many recipe suggestions and also experiment with the focc as a mayonaise.    All the best   Anthea

Hi Anthea 
 
Here is a link to the files section for recipe ideas:
No, you don't have to consume larger portions of focc, especially if you are small. 
If you can't manage the dessert portion after lunch,  (it is meant to be eaten after your salad) why not make it a savoury mix, as a dressing for your salad, or a healthy
dip for vegetables?
You would mix the oil and quark/cc as per usual,  then add things like garlic, ginger,  lemon juice,  chilli,  horseradish.... whatever you wish in pure form. 
 
Hope this helps.
Best wishes

Re: Iron deficiency

 

Good morning from UK.

I have been trying to follow the protocol but am struggling .  I find that I cannot take the lunchtime Flaxseed and cottage cheese mixture as I still feel full from the breakfast portion and I don't really like it anyway!   Is it alright to take a much smaller portion along with my salad.  I really cannot face only the FOCC for lunch.  I need the salad and veg.

I also cannot find the recipe suggestions for supper dishes.  I am struggling to make supper at all interesting and varied and I have lost a lot of weight.  Any suggestions gratefully received.    Anthea

Hi Marta
 
Beetroot is considered to be an excellent blood builder, proven to be very effective in treating anemia. It is also a blood purifier.
 
You could juice it from raw and cook it to add to meals.
 
Hope it helps!

Re: Iron deficiency

 

If you are juicing, add some spinach to the juice. I juice a couple of ounces of spinach with the carrot, beet, apple, celery, ginger, tomato.

It is unfortunate that he underwent chemo before Budwig. It makes it much more difficult, although still may be effective.

Hello everyone!
I hope everyone here is happy and healthy and doing really great! 

I have a question regarding iron deficiency.
My cousin, who started the Budwig protocol very recently, has very low red cell blood count and is basically with no energy, it’s hard for him to talk or to even lift a glass of water.
 
Do you have any recommendations about what could be done to help him?
 
He was diagnosed with colon cancer with metastasis to liver and lungs 2 years ago. And for 2 years he was treated with chemotherapy, which did not help. His hemoglobin was always low during that time and he even had a blood transfusion a couple of times , which was helping for a period of time, but then his hemoglobin would fall down again.
The doctors stopped the treatment and he’s been basically left to die (which hopefully won’t be the case) and they are not helping anymore apart from an occasional visit by a nurse.
 
he’s in pain, he has no energy, he has swollen legs and belly… 
 
we started the diet about 2 weeks ago. His sleeping improved, which is great because before he hadn’t been able to sleep...
 
How can we help him? Is there anything we can do to improve his iron levels? Or will they improve in the course of the diet? Is there anything we can do to help with his pain and swollen legs and belly? 

Thank you for your support!
 
Much love to you all!!!

Re: Iron deficiency

 

Hello Marta,

I hope he will be better after Budwig Protocol.

I have an experienced and efficient natural formula for iron levels. This formula is not advised by Budwig but natural.

Chop 3 celery into cubes, boil in 1 large pot of drinking water on low heat for 10 minutes, then add 1 bunch of spinach and boil on low heat for another 5 minutes.

Make him drink 1 glass of this mixture every day for 21 days.

It will be work.

Regards,

Mücahit.

Re: Is wine necessary?

 


Thank you so much! That helps a lot!!


Re: Is wine necessary?

 

Hi Marta
 
As Rod says, the champagne and red wine are optional.
Dr. Budwig used champagne for the bubbles/alcohol to assist the delivery of the lipoproteins from the flax seeds.
When the liver is compromised, you would obviously have to be very,  very cautious with alcohol.
I would use a freshly squeezed fruit juice with freshly ground flax seeds instead.
Papaya and pineapple are wonderful for the digestive enzymes they contain.

Re: Is wine necessary?

 

That text makes it easy on my old(er) eyes, ha. Wine is absolutely NOT necessary, nor is the champagne. You can mix the flax seeds with freshly pressed juice in the morning instead of champagne. Wine is a "treat", so to speak. At the time I got cancer I was also fighting alcohol issues. Cancer forced me to stop drinking, and I was not about to challenge the beast again.

That was October of 2015 and I am still kicking.

All the best, Rod in MN/USA

Hello everyone, I’m looking for some advice regarding wine in the protocol.

We have a patient with stage IV cancer (liver, lungs, colon).

We are just starting out with the protocol and are looking for information. 

We have read that he should drink sparkling white wine but we are not sure if alcohol is good in our circumstances. Would alcohol free wine have the same effect or is it actually important to have a normal wine. We are a bit confused. 

Some explanation would be much appreciated!

Re: is sheep yogurt ok for FOCC?

 

At 6% you have about half what is recommended in protein. You might be able to increace that by straining, but since you can get sheep milk it might be worth making your own CC. There are several methods, some very simple.

Bellwether Farms plain sheep yogurt has 10g protein in 170g serving size, so about 6% protein.  Yes, I can get sheep milk from health food store and surely I can learn how to make cottage cheese on youtube. 

 Thank you for the suggestion, Rod!

Can you get just sheep milk? Cottage cheese isn't hard to make. Some folks strain yogurt to increase the protein percentage. Tha may be worth a try. I do not know how much protein is in sheep yogurt.

I'm not supposed to have cow or goat dairy because these trigger excessive immune response on my lung sarcoidosis chronic autoimmune.

However, sheep dairy is ok.  I can get organic sheep yogurt, but I can't find sheep cottage cheese at any health food stores.

Does anyone think that sheep yogurt would ok for Bugwig FOCC mix?

Re: Friendship dairies

 

"RBST free"

I never took that into consideration with cottage cheese, so I don't think it is all the critical. There is nothing I can find wrong about their product, other than perhaps the cost. I just used Daisy brand for most of my FO/CC. It isn't organic, but it only has the basic 4 ingredients, no fillers or gums added.

Hi Derald,
 
I think that in order to get a comparable amount of protein as cottage cheese or quark, you will need to remove the whey.  Just put the sheep yogurt on a large piece of cheesecloth placed in a colander so you can drain the whey out of it.  

Very best,
Marilyn
