If not, I may have an insight here...
I read in Sally Fallon's book, "Nourishing Traditions" , that in the bran covering of grains, some molds may grow. A very small amount is allowed by law. It may be that you are very sensitive to that mold, as I am. Oh now I remember, they are called aflatoxins!
I find great relief from all kinds of inner distress while sticking to Atkins! I wonder if IBS lurks within me also. But as long as I put only meats, raw salads, cheese, eggs, fats, and a few cooked veggies down the hatch, all stays calm down there. But just let me slip up once, and eat whole-grain bread or rice, and things get weird.
Ok, 'nuff said. You really don't want to know more.
Isaiah 55:6-7 wrote:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
I'm hyperthyroid

BUT I have lost 18 pounds since the first of the year without meds on a low carb diet. I started out on Atkins, but switched to Protein Power since it is not so restrictive and is much easier to live with.
I am to the point now that I MUST buy some smaller clothes. That's a problem I can happily deal with! :)
About the Atkins diet for hypothroidism...be very careful. Especially if you eat any of their prepackaged food. Much of it is soy based. Soy and thyrpoid meds do not mix. Soy renders the meds useless if taken at the wrong time.
RR, I don't know how they would affect you if you don't have a thyroid in the first place. Are you seeing an endocrinologist? They could probably answer you questions, whereas anything I said would just be guessing. :)
1. Too much protein can put an excessive load on the kidneys. This should be of particular concern to diabetics of all stripes. Even for healthy people, the extra work of processing all that extra protein is stressful for the kidneys.
2. The excessive proteins push the body, and the cellular environment into an acid condition, which is the condition required for cancer to grow unchecked by the immune system. The acid environment also has negative affects on the immune system.
In pre-WWII days, a German scientist, Otto Warburg, received a Nobel Prize for his work in sussing out the fact that cancer cells don’t generate energy the same way that normal cells do. Cancer cells get their energy, not like normal cells, from the mitochondrial oxidation of fat, but from glycolysis, the breakdown of glucose withing the cytoplasm (the liquid part of the cell). This different metabolism of cancer cells that sets them apart from normal cells is called the Warburg effect. Warburg thought until his dying day that this difference is what causes cancer, and although it is true that people with elevated levels of insulin and glucose do develop more cancers, most scientists in the field don’t believe that the Warburg effect is the driving force behind the development of cancer.
But it stands to reason that it can be used to treat cancer that is already growing. Since cancers can’t really get nourishment from anything but glucose, it stands to reason that cutting off this supply would, at the very least, slow down tumor growth, especially in aggressive, fast-growing cancers requiring a lot of glucose to fuel their rapid growth.
"My first line of treatment is to have patients remove carbohydrates from their diets," explains Dr. Vernon, a petite, energetic mother of two who also serves as the president of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. "This is often all it takes to reverse their symptoms, so that they no longer require medication."

Heb 13:9
Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
bchandler, I did not intend to be harsh. But I do feel strongly that what the Bible says about God including meats and cooked foods in his commandments to humans, should not be denigrated or overlooked.
I also agree that we need to take responsibility for what we put into these temples of God, physically. However, the Word says that to be occupied with foods, as if they were somehow going to bless us spiritually, has not benefitted those who have done so.
As for me, I will believe the scientists, instead of the emotionally- charged hype put out by people who have barley-green, supplements, or juicers to sell to me.
And anyone who develops a "ministry" of telling people that God originally told people to eat only uncooked vegetables and fruits, is being Biblically dishonest.
With what do we build cells? PROTEIN! We have got to have more protein, to repair and rebuild those cells that are dying off at such high rates!
And I aim for wisdom in my choices of foods- Dr Atkins does not truthfully tell his followers just how wise they need to be in this.
Gen 1:29 And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food.
Gen 1:30 And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food." And it was so.
Gen 6:7 So the LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the heavens, for I am sorry that I have made them."
Gen 6:11 Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with violence.
Gen 6:12 And God saw the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.
Gen 6:13 And God said to Noah, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
Gen 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
Gen 9:2 The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea. Into your hand they are delivered.
Gen 9:3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.
Gen 9:4 But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.
The Tiaga mushroom contains high levels of important, naturally occurring polysaccharide beta-1-3-D glucans. This configuration has been shown to act as a nonspecific immune activator.
The white blood cells that inhabit the lining of the digestive tract, from the mouth all the way through, take up the beta-glucan that is absorbed, and transport it to the local lymph nodes (Payers Patches) as a part of their natural antigen-presenting function. That “function” is to release cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, GM-CSF, Interferon’s) and induce systemic immune activation.
From there, all other white blood cells are informed, and a whole-body cascade of immune modulation is initiated. The mechanism described above is called phagocytic transport.
Obviously, it’s preferable to have an abundance of healthy neutraphil cells. Neutraphils also appear to be able to provide undifferentiated stem cells to areas of the body which may be in need of repair. This is how regeneration can occur.
Utilizing Dark-field Electron Microscopy, Interferon levels have been observed to have risen as much as 2000% of normal within twenty hours after ingesting extracts from this Ganoderma family of fungi, which includes the popular and well-known Reishi variety. It has also been observed that the number and viability of the neutrophil cells can increase by as much as 4000% within the same twenty hour time frame.
