[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 797407, member: 160246"] Well, I'm almost 5 weeks into the LCHF diet, and I'm beginning to see signs that my colon is not tolerating fats well. This happened once before when I went to work for a restaurant known for its fish and chips - (I ate fries (chips) with my food 5 days a week, and developed the beginnings of ulcerative colitis within 6 months). The problem is the fat, not the carbs or protein. And I've been gluten-free for 3 or 4 years. Does anyone else here have both conditions? I'm most interested in learning if it's possible to make adjustments so I can stay on the diet for life, not just 6 months. I read last night in Drs. Michael and Mary Eades book, The Protein Power LifePlan (2000), that supplementation with glutamine is helpful for healing the inflamed colon. [Edit: I no longer believe fat is contributing to the symptoms I'm having, though there's a possibility my body doesn't tolerate well the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in flaxseed. The fish and chip restaurant I worked at in 2000 used oil high in PUFA in their deep fryers.] [/QUOTE]
