I've heard cayenne can work for one auto immune issue I have, haven't tried yet. I eat bell peppers several times a week, we use it a lot in our food. Unfortunately one of the things they say is night shades can make auto immune worse for some people. So I may have to cut them out for a bit to see if it helps. Sorry if I'm rambling, very foggy brain todayHave you thought about cayenne pepper, jalapeno, or bell peppers? I made a cayenne tincture last year. I lately have started putting a few drops of the tincture, into my water. Cayenne is good for a lot of things, but it is HOT. The Tam jalapeno is the best of the milder jalapeno peppers to me. You could grow that yourself. Anybody can eat bell peppers. Some of them are very mild. I especially like stuffed peppers. They can be stuffed with all kinds of different ingredients. I can't do the straight cayenne, because it is too hot for me. I do like tobassco pepper sauce on my peas, and some beans. Not sure if that is good for the metabolism though. But the rest are supposed to be. Cayenne is good for so many things. Do a search on it.
I did knock out gluten for a while, and it helped with another issue. The problems now are mostly recent, only a few have gone back a couple years. A hint if you ended up trying gluten free, "goodbye gluten" bread is amazing, you'd never know the difference. And there are certain brands that far outshine others as far as gluten replacements, but the best bet is obviously to avoid it all togetherAnd welcome to MY world, poor lady Sheesh. Exactly my problems. Have you tried knocking out gluten or anything like that? I love bread, so I can't imagine doing this. If I cut it out, I'd have to kill someone. :-(
