Can things I've learned the hard way.. help people.. before they suffer more?

[ceagle]

Started to get a lot of heartburn a long time ago.
Had a lot of tests.
Told to cut out nearly all hydrogenated oils and lard (essentially the same thing).
Almost no heartburn anymore.

Cut back sodium (under 2200mg/day) and caffeine soda (about 1 can a week).
Almost no more headaches, and (with some regular exercise) lowered blood pressure, too.

And balanced meals. Plenty of water. Vitamin C and wash hands after doorknobs and money.

Those are the basics anyway. I'm still learning.

Best of wishes... ^v^

Circulation trouble is very common in my father's side. And all of them are diabetic, except for one of my cousins (and my 3-year-old half-brother). I'm very worried. :\

What sort of medical assistance (sp?) did the orientation? I want to be looking for one soon. My father found out that he's diabetic only a couple of weeks ago. :/

Glad you could get over the trouble. Congratulations. ;)

It might indeed be a good idea to be wary of dietary objectives, and plan carefully, with exercise too...

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by what sort of assistance and orientation.. *peeps, and wingfuzzles your ears*... It was just regular doctors and some specialist referrals... Like, for a skin ailment you would see a dermatologist and for a foot one you would see a podiatrist ... For other specialties they have specialists too. I hope you have a good regular doctor... *hugs and wishes well*
