I can't remember if we've discussed this, but I'm severely intolerant of corn (only GMO- organic corn does not give me issues)- which often causes inflammation of various kinds in the body. My kids inherited this from me. When our family switched from corn we all lost a ton of weight and I became the poster girl for perfect blood chemistry. Before that, all my lipids and enzymes were out of whack. So you might play around with organic foods and food elimination diets to see if that helps you.

I am with Kaiser, and I can watch my blood panels- and even though I eat tons of home baked desserts, I don't gain weight and my insulin never moves- it's the same as it was 15 years ago. You'd think I was an athlete (which I am definitely not.) I have a heart rate of 50-55 and bp of 115/120 over 65-75. :-)

I appreciate your restrictive diet, but we had no idea how much specific foods could impact our wellness. And because our lives have been so amazing since the change over, I like to spread the word. It's not corn for everyone- for some people it's soy, or wheat or rice- and for some people it's only the GMO food that bothers them. And the medical profession is downright dismissive of this. Even though I barf and crap myself after eating corn (even when I don't know I've been fed it- as has happened a few times in the past)- my doctors didn't believe me.
