Does anybody have a problem eating mangoes and or papayas? I used to be able to eat them both and then didn't have them for a couple years and now I am doubled over in pain for about 3 hours if I eat them really really bad pain. Now I'm just afraid to even look at them. I don't know what causes this. I've read a few too many of them you could have this problem but I only eat one so that's not the problem. I eat them on an empty stomach so they're not mixed up with any other food so that's not the problem. I just love mangoes and papayas and I am so sad.

I have allergies every year and this year I decided to hold off on taking steroid progesterone for about a month then I took the 5 day regiment given by Doctor and it did not help at all. I know they are anti life drugs but when you have trouble breathing quality of life declines so I did what wad available that I knew of. Anyhow, I have trouble getting in full breath Doctor said oxygen level is 97% so they didn't think I needed an inhaler. It is like deep in my diaphragm I cannot get that full breath but only partial. Sometimes can get full breath but not often. I know that this way of eating is the best I've ever had and no way am I throwing in the towel I wanted to ask if anyone in the community dealt with breathing issues which may be due to the changes in digestion and diet? Curious if anyone has any ideas about how to get some relief?

I'm getting bored with my daily big salads so I thought I'd ask the community for smoothie recipes? I want to have greens in them and could mix in other salad things like cucumber, mushrooms, or etc. I don't have a Vitamix blender or anything fancy for smoothies yet just a basic blender but can puree so should be able to make smoothies I just haven't gotten creative yet

I can’t wait for persimmon season, just the thought makes my mouth water😆 I live in the UK, so grapes and bananas are always a staple year round. How about you, what are your go to fruits this time of year?

Can anyone who's also drinking distilled water help me out? A few weeks ago I have been getting into drinking distilled water and have been really liking it so far. But since today the water (fresh and the one I had from yesterday in the fridge) tastes super super weird. Kind of like chemicals and mushrooms combined. I always clean my distiller well after each use and end the process before all the water has run through to make sure as much gunk as possible stays filtered out of the water but this time it is not drinkable. Has anyone with a distiller ever made any similar experiences? What can one do about it?
