Hi everyone,
I am on my first week of NSD. It seems working for the first three days but starting on the forth day, I am gaining pain and stiffiness again. Is that normal? How long does it take to see improvement?

Hi May Welcome to the forum !

The result varies... Some gets result fast while some takes months to see the result.
I am so sorry to hear you have more pain and stiffness. Hope your pain and stiffness are better soon !

Stick to NSD and I really hope you will have a good result

Best wishes
Jasmine

Hi May,

As Jasmine stated, it varies. For me, I clear up in 4-5 days after starch (without any assistance from drugs). But I do gradually get better day by day.

Maybe some hidden starch made it into your diet? That is what happens with me at times.... before I realize I ate something I shouldn't have I will feel some minor stiffness (I usually feel it 2-3 hours after eating).

Hope this helps some,

Tim

Hello May, it seems for some that the effect is noticeable initially and then the hard bit starts - AS and starch can mask sensitivities we develop (via our leaky gut) to other food items. Finding those is a step-by-step process but you end up healthier and happier. Happy hunting, it's your learning project...
So like Tim i suggest search labels for hidden starch and maybe stay off some of the pureed/sauce type foods as they have worse effects the smaller the particle size.
A wheat flour thickened sauce is FAR WORSE than a slice of toast.

I totally agree with you. From now on, I will list everything I eat and find out the possibility of hidden starch food. Thanks for your suggestion,
