Three years later and I'm happy to report that I continue to thrive on what is now more of a low starch diet than a no starch diet.
My starch tolerance has continued to improve over time. I do the 'weed and seed' protocol a few times a year now, which seems to keep the bad bacteria in check.
Not that I stray very far from my LSD, but I do enjoy being able to eat a pizza now and then without having to worry. Most of all, I enjoy being pain free. I feel so much better now than I did in my early 30's, when my joints were sore and stiff and swollen all the time. This site was a game changer for me, and I will always be grateful that I found it.
Suspected USpA. HLA B27, xray, u/sound, blood tests all -ve. Ancient history of plantar fasciitis, SI joint pain, knee arthritis. Recent history of tendinitis, neck pain, debilitating finger pain and stiffness (especially mornings). No diagnosis, no meds.
