--He who Endures to the End shall overcome--
Hi ketkev,
Your post: This has to be my last post until this evening. I do not claim to have all the answers. That is why I have to put all of my trust in Christ in her affliction. Which the bible says to rejoice in affliction. 90% of your protocols she has tried. She has not eaten any type of sugar for over 10 years except fo blackstrap molasses and what may exist in the occasional piece of fruit. Her diet is impecable. No grains, Nothing from a box or a bag, Only from the ground or an animal. The only thing I have not tried in your particular forum is the refractometer. Telling me how much sugar exists in a fruit or vegetable means nothing to me when you are recieving the best homegrown organic produce around. Anything she eats that has been chemically fertilized or been sprayed with pesticides makes her sick. I had done my own personal blind study with her on this. I do not need a device to tell me this. Most of the advice I see you give is too people who are eating refined foods and such. This is not the same situation. This is a person who has done the liver flushing, hydrogen baths etc for years before she even discovered this forum. Mix this with only eating the sprouted live foods, or clean protiens adopting your blackstrap drink. and anything else that makes sense and you have my wife. You have a person who has tried so much and gained so little ground. A person who has been doing this stuff for 10 years and making little gains. God took Ezekiel's wife for his glory. God raised up Pharoh just for his glory, God put a thorn in the side of of one of the new testament writers for his entire life just to humble him. God says to rejioce in sufferings. When you suffer as much as she has this is all you have to lean on. that this is for his purpose. That all things work together for the good, to them who are called according to his purpose Romans 8:28. I may buy a refractomoter, but as an engineer by profession my reseearch leaves me wanting as to the effectiveness of the concept around measuring sugars
Answer: Maybe your profession is Limiting you?
Most Engineers I know have a hard time seeing the gray areas and can only see Black or White, which is required for them to be Good Engineers so that they can build safe buildings etc, but may prevent them from figuring out the un-knowns that have too many variables as in the health field !
Kinda like a Good friend of mine told me he would not want to fly in an airplane I would build for it would probably crash, but that because of the way my mind worked I was able to see and figure things out that other folks were not able too, because I could see many of the gray areas and was not bothered by these in finding the Solution to the problem, whereas an Engineer could not Deal with nor Solve the problems I would be able to !
Each person has Talents and we are to make the best of what we have been given !
Then as we learn we may have a problem in one field or the other, it is our job to make the needed adjustments to overcome these short-commings and make the best of what we have been given !
It is my belief that you may Fear what you may learn from a refractometer more than not knowing !
Generally the Fear of the un-known is Greater than the Known !
So, you can continue to fight yourself and keep justifying "WHY" you are Un-willing to get a Refractometer to Better learn to Better help your wife Improve or you can be Honest with yourself and admit that you may could learn something very Important that may Improve your wife's Health !
Your claim that you raise a garden and it is the best food may or may not be True, but you can Prove it to yourself and your wife with the use of a refractometer !
What I am suggesting is that you do not need to Guess, but may know for a fact, if the foods your wife is eating is Good for her or may be Improved upon !
"WHY" do you fight learning the "Truth" about the foods you are eating as to what Quality they may be?
Cause and Effect !
You and your wife are the ones Suffering, and if you want to continue to do so, then keep doing the same things, as I am sure you will continue to get the same Poor Results !
Smile Tis your choice.
