Hi Liza and Jean-Louis,

I trust the instinct to protect you from severe discomfort and give
you a disgusting taste if the food would cause nasty problems. But if
the food is tasting great I never would expect such a thing.

Example for me: although I am eating Orkos' olives I find that they
cause discomfort in my joints. But not only they taste great, they also
smell luminous. So what is this for? I don't know and hope it's good for
me. :-\

That's the best one gets and I would take it as "much care taken".
Okay. Perhaps you didn't suffer from drilling out your fillings then.

I am. If the fillings are intact they might be more or less harmless but
still they are leaking. Perhaps you can handle this but why should you
burden your body with this continuous leakage?

Liza:

I think there must be something wrong with your kidneys. Did you have
a check? Also I would try if Cassia can improve the situation. Perhaps
your body tries to excrete something via the kidneys which would better
be excreted through the gut (sounds improbable admittedly)?

MCSV sounds good and if they cause you too much discomfort then avoid
them awhile, then try again. I have problems with Orkos' olives (see
above) and if they become too hard I will give up the Olives (sigh!)
for awhile.

Instinctive regards,

Stefan
