As we are all trying to avoid unneccessary and toxic chemicals, I think trying to keep improving is so important. Someone just sent this to me--a new cleaning syste, which uses NO chemicals. It looks amazing, and I am going to buy it. Take a look: https://www.zabadaclean.com/kitchen-care.html   Dr.M & B

We wanted to express our happiness over seeing such wonderful input and activity in this last week. It has been petty incredible for ICAMA to be revived. Thanks to all who have participated and contributed to giving it back its life force. Behind the scenes, we are busy building the new ICAMA site. It is going to have all of the functions that everyone wants, making it easier to share all of the things that people enjoy sharing. It should be up by the end of the month at the latest. We are working very hard.   M & B

It occured to me yesterday speaking to someone that when someone says they are eating a salad-that could be a lot of different things for each individual. IN fact, I was out to dinner last night and the waiter tried to have my daughter swap her spinach for another "salad" which consisted of eggplant tomatoes and cheese. Hmmmm....I don't think so! I said, "thank you, but, I think she will have the spinach".

While some cravings are good ones because your body is telling you what it needs--such as protein, green veggies, etc..  If you find your body keeps sending you to that frozen yoghurt shop or the chocloate section of the grocery store, or you can't resist the impulse the have some pankcakes and syrup before bed....hmmmm, that might make you pause to wonder why.

This just in from a patient this am. What an amazing article about the ecosystem inside of us. I know we have posted on this subject in a seemingly redundant manner, but, there is never enough said about it as there are endless points to hit on.

We have not done a post on cleansing for ages I think. I thought to di it this morning because someone I have treated for a long time decided to do a cleanse and the problems that came up are common ones and I thought people could benefit from that information. She had been feeling like she had gottne off track and been eating too much unhealthy food and was not feeling well. So, she took things to cleanse her body. She took things that sounded quite innocent and infact, though, in combination made things even worse.

Typically, people having IC struggle with keeping weight on. They find themselves feeling as if they are withering away and ultimately as they regain their balance from within, the weight comes back and stabilizes at a healthy place.

It has taken us quite a long time to get to the very sad place we needed to get to which led us to shutting down the Forum this week. So, for those of you who felt that we were acting in a rash manner you should know that nothing could be further from the truth. Let me tell you, it was very painful to do this, as this our life's vision and work, having dedicated 20 years of our lives to helping those having this condition. The following are our issues with the FB group-- 1-First and foremost FB page was set up without our knowledge, involvement, or consent.

This site has been the culmination of the now almost two decades of work that we have invested  in Dr. Brizman's treatment of IC-it is a branch that grew from that trunk of knowledge, dedication, and human compassion that has developed over so many years. The forum was created to be a safe place for our patients to support and share their journey with one another and be a rich rescource of information. Both the forum and the blog section of this site were equal parts of our vision that we worked very hard and long to create. For many years, this vision was a reality.
