I see my name here but the description don't fit with who i am . i am
not
the person that you see,  KIrt,  you are talking about yourself again
.
about my health problems ( no adrenal and thyroid function) i live
with them
for almost 20 years and am following the instincto guidelines for
only 11
years. and it didn't change that condition. My new problems are
osteoporosis
which is the normal outcome of cortisone therapy that i did for 18
years
,despite of this diagnostic ( almost all long term addisonian get
osteoporosis) i feel healthier with time.
 considering those facts I could not prostelytise instincto as a
miracle
cure for everything  ( i never saw it that way ) but as a very
rewarding way
to eat and be in my body.
