Dr Moseley gut diet

Earlier today a gentleman on this site asked if this has worked for anyone. I can't see my post so I guess it's in his inbox.

I hope the following helps the newbies.

I changed my diet two months ago and my RLS has vastly improved.

I have cut out sugar, dairy, meat and most carbs.

For breakfast I east seeded wholemeal toast with peanut butter or porridge. Add flaxseed to porridge. I dont eat bread again that day.

For lunch a banana and oat biscuits. Some nuts.

For dinner. Spicy roasted veg stew with lentils and beans. Followed by stewed berries containing cinnamon and cloves. On top I add flaxseeds, chia seeds, coconut shavings, chopped hazelnuts cocoa nibs.

I batch cook and it tastes even better after it has been frozen and thawed.

I've lost weight.

My RLS is vastly improved. It comes back if I drink alcohol, eat chips or crisps.

Hope that helps.

That's great.

Is avoiding meat an essential part of that diet.?

I have to keep up my Haemoglobin levels for phlebotomy and meat is really the only practical way to do so.

Cheers.

Otherwise, its very much the diet I keep to- simply avoid all White Stuff- flour, carbs , sugar etc .

Hi Madlegs

I don't think meat is exempt from Dr Mosley's diet so it's personal choice for me.

I also but organic food when reasonly priced.

I forgot to add, I take all the supplements suggested on here ie

B12

Iron

Magnesium spray- make my own 50% mineral water 50% magnesium flakes.

I made my own sour kraute as well.

Well, i am glad it has helped your RLS. :) I have never found any dietary triggers for mine, and as we say, we are all different when it comes to what helps.

Me too nightdancer, almost sent myself mad some years back cutting out all different food groups. The only thing that did was make me even more depressed .
