Do you healthy folks get die-off reactions after taking for example 4-5g of dried oregano or basil mixed with olive oil for example?
The reason this interests me is that I wonder if oregano could possibly "annihilate" probiotic microorganisms (as I'm assuming that physically healthy individuals also have several times more beneficial microorganisms over the less beneficial ones)...
Another reason this interests me, is that in case no such negative response would occur, it would seem possible to assume that this could be an indicator on some level that an individual is rather ok in regards to immune status.

Oh, and by "healthy" folks I mean genetically superior individuals who maintain top tier health even by dieting solely on potato chips, soda, omega-6 oils and CAFO-meat as well as individuals who achieved a state of physical well-being by following a raw paleo/paleo/WestonAPrice kind of diet.

I'll be really appreciative for some feedback on this...

I was wondering due to planning to organize a small-scale cooperation for group-orders for grass-fed ruminant meats (lamb, mutton, beef, goat),  which I know will be very hard in Poland, since as  I've heard from a very reliable source practically all sheep are corn- and soyfed around here.  I know grass-fed would be a sure option, but I don't believe there are any organized grass-fed meat initiatives or consumer awareness on this issue in this country. Any thoughts on this?

Health / tinea crusis - yeast rash on groin area
« on: May 10, 2014, 11:17:57 pm »
Hello users of this respectful forum,
I'm a dude who's trying to overcome his remaining health issues, in the form of:
-dandruff
-tinea crusis (which I guess would suggest that there is most likely some candida/yeast overgrowth in the intestines)
-very small gynecomastia.

My personal info:
-height - 1.92m (or 6' 3.5"),
-80kg (or 176 lbs)
-29 y.o.
-I've been lifting weights 3x a week for the past 3 months (gained 10kgs since then) and plan on continueing to do so
-location - Poland
-started a Robb Wolf-Paleo diet about 20 months ago.
-gluten-free and dairy-free diet since 2009; cutted out starches 20 months ago
-I've been taking fish oil supplements since 2010

my diet during the last few months:
-roasted organic chicken breast as main protein source + occasional raw egg yolks
-honeydew melons daily (about 80g of sugar) + some raw honey
-100-200g macadamia nuts (I've cut them out recently due to coming to the conclusion that they most likely have a negative affect on my GI health)
-50-150g of quality extra virgin olive oil (with total daily fat consumption usually under 200g)
-shelled hemp seeds about 30g daily
-supplementation the same as mentioned below in my new plan, just without magnesium

Health issues which I managed to overcome in the past:
-poor communication skills (asperger-like symptoms) - difficulty holding a conversation, etc.
-major issues with defecation (improved a lot after replacing starches with simple sugar sources)
-rectal bleeds (stopped occuring after I've cut out starches)
-abdominal fat (problem resolved itself over a few months after I stopped supplementing with chromium and methylcobalamin)
-low energy / chronic fatigue - resolved after I stopped supplementing with zinc and started maintaining a proper zinc:copper ratio

I plan to follow the mentioned below dietary plan with the hope of healing my remaining health issues:
-raw thawed lamb (imported from New Zealand) and raw  organic egg yolks as protein sources (about 100g of protein daily, unless I'll be satisfied with a smaller amount),
-raw honey/organic oranges/ non-organic honeydew or santa claus melons/ organic kiwi/organic mango as carb sources - 60-130g of carbs daily
-homemade sauerkraut as probiotic source,
-fat sources: quality extra virgin olive oil, egg yolks, lamb fat,  and maybe some organic avocado - 100-200g of fat daily.
-daily suplement regimen: omega 3 fish oil 2.5g DHA and EPA , low-dose multivitamin (RDA doses), minerals: calcium citrate 300-450mg, magnesium citrate 150-300mg, copper 2mg, iodine 150mcg, iron 5mg; acetyl-l-carnitine 500mg; vitamin D3 5000 IU in non-summer months, vitamin K1 100mcgs, vitamin A 5000 IU;
My reasons to supplement are mainly financial - a diet providing adequate amounts of all minerals would be significantly more expensive.
I would be really grateful for feedback from RP dieters on what I could possibly improve in this plan.
