This is a list 3 recipe is just in from a sweet patient who took the time to share it. If you take out the parmesean-list 4 you can add it, UNLESS I have indicated the parmesean is ok for you.

More and more researchers are connecting the brain and gut. Here is yet another outstanding article: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3232439/

Fundamental to our health is our sense of  being protected and nurtured by our parents and our self worth is so tied into that dynamic as well.

This link is a bit off that topic, but, not really. I read this today and thought it was really lovely and wanted to share it for those of you with small children-especially daughters.

So much of what we do as women, as mothers, impacts our children in ways we don't even realize and this piece is so well put and a shining example of that.

Enjoy, Dr. M

.....for all of her hard work in negotiating the solution to Natren increaseing their prices so dramatically. Orders can be placed through the following company, here is the link : Www.luxebc.com

OFten when my patients have babies and if they have problems instead of using the various probiotics for babies out there, I recommed using the adult ones in MINUTE doses with of course, the permission of the baby's pediatrician.

I typically wil start with lactobacillus acidophilus. This often will address colic and skin issues as a start to helping their immune systems. this is the beginning and I build from there.

I am posting prematurely on this, but, it is 6:30 am and I need to get this off my mind as I thinking about it. As everyone knows, Natren probiotics are my primary choice and has been over many years, although I do divert from time to time for individual reasons. 

Interestingly, there is a huge incidence of IC with cats. Very strangely, my cat, who, I shamefully did not spay in time got pregnant and had a litter of not one, but, five kittens earleir this year. I found homes for all of them. The one I kept apparently has, yes, IC. So, I have treated him. He instantly responded positively, but then after about 10 days, began to have symptoms again. Then I realized, I had not changed his water. I did so and since then, which has been another ten days, there have been no symptoms. 

Don't forget that when you eat fruit to eat it as a dessert on full belly. If you eat fruit on an empty stomach, it will make your symtpoms worse.
