Hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone knows why dairy products aint good for people with endrometriosis?

Hi

They cause inflammation in the gynae/pelvic area which increases the pain, so its better to stay away from them. The endo diet says that women with endo should not include them in their diet.

I use rice or almond milk for my cereal in the morning, but I have the occasional peace of cheese. x

Dairy is bad for most conditions , high on the list of no gos for MS & diabetics too.

I'm vegan & can tell you most fake cheese is pretty horrible. Also they are soya which we also shouldn't have.

BUT .... There is a product that everyone I know who's tried (including meat eaters) really likes .

It is called Engervita . (Yeast flakes) It adds a strong cheese flavour to things & very high in B vitamins.

Great for sauces or baking. Cheap too.

As above for inflamation, it also causes excess mucas production.

I've recently cut out wheat (inflammatory) , cow's diary (inflammatory and passes through the oestrogens from the hormones / antibiotics etc from their feed if non organic) (although a little organic butter ok...), orange and grapefruit (gut irritants), soya (oestrogenic - aggrivates endo), alcohol, cafine, refined sugar (although I have some in cooking)... chocolate (except soya free, sugar free dark 70% lint is good).

I have sheeps yoghurt, which is amazing, and sheeps cheeses.

I have either coconut or almond milk on cereal / porradge

I have wheat free bread and pasta

I now feel amazing, I have more energy, have lost weight, can cope on just paracetomol / heat pads.
