Firm believer in that your health is in your hands here. It makes me laugh when people who eat bad, live bad, don't pay attention to their needs on every level think that when their system crumbles a trip to GP followed by prescription will miraculously cure them of all alignments. Funny

Nope, it's that difficult to get an appointment with my GP that I'd rather just wait out whatever ailment I wanted help for in the first place.

Change your diet and see how it goes then. Yes I do realise how silly that sounds but it only sounds silly to a brain that's been conditioned from the cradle to think that when in need the GP is the first step to recovery.

Do you think that you are the only one who knows this? Do you know anything about my lifestyle, health conditions, what alternative therapies I use, etc? Why assume you are the only one who has thought about this? Maybe some of us who have chronic illnesses have too. Why would you assume you have gone through the thought process and no one else has? Don't be taken in by all that propaganda, weigh both sides and one thing I don't do, it try to dictate to people without knowing their circumstances or what they have done and are doing.

Try having chronic health conditions that don't get affected by diet. I still try and convince myself that diet is key and I spend ages messing around with what I eat to see what does and doesn't work.

And it's exhausting, stressful and makes me feel guilty when I get it wrong. I've found certain foods make me worse. But ultimately I followed a strict exclusion diet (also incredibly healthy) for around 4-6 months and other than losing a ton of weight, it didn't do an awful lot.

There does come a point where you say "enough".

I don't think blaming people for their illnesses is helpful or useful. No one chooses to be ill.

I'm on a gluten, wheat, diary and sugar free diet. Avoiding any processed food and making things from scratch. I've only been doing it 7 weeks but haven't had the "rush of energy" I was promised! Other than dropping some weight (which is a positive thing but not the main reason for me doing it), I've not noticed any benefits yet. I had a hysterectomy 6 months ago and so I'm still struggling with the aftermath. I also have Fibromyalgia and M.E. so think it's just going to take a lot longer for me. I came off my painkillers and antidepressants about 4 months ago and I'm really struggling. Unfortunately changing your diet is a positive step but it's certainly not a magic cure.

When you have a chronic illness so you know how many well meaning people say "have you tried x y z" and offer all sorts of conflicting advice? It's ridiculous. When you've spent 5 years and a lot of time and effort chasing alternatives, and that promised "cure" again doesn't work for the 100th time you stop listening to people who are clueless.

Some of us are just born with fucked up immune systems. We're not all born 100% healthy and designed to stay that way.

Looking after your body doesn't fix everything and it's insulting to people to say it does.

Imagine telling someone with a missing limb that eating more fruit and veg would fix that? Think about what you're saying.

People are bound to be defensive when confronted with aggressive, confrontational, presumptive arrogant 'arguments' and that is why discussions like this never go well. If you took the time to ask questions and understand other points of view people would have much more respect for you and your lifestyle choice.

I am type 2 diabetic and do taken medication at the moment however the lifestyle changes I am making will hopefully result in my being taken off of them. It takes time to reverse a lifetime of bad choices and there will be relapses along the way. To simply stop any medication without making changes first is fool hardy and dangerous.

There's a lot of doctors in my family and one thing I've never been allowed to take in my life is antibiotics for sore throats even when it's a throat infection. Simply because there is little clinical evidence to support that they help it clear up any faster than just leaving it be, but everyone still demands them.

I think a lot of people lack common sense tbh and that's the root of this problem - although I don't believe that all GPs problems are as a result of this kind of thing, there are other factors in play too. Some people do really take the piss out of the NHS as a system.

I am a long term vegan but I don't preach. Back in the day, people preached to me, and I dint like it. That was before being a vegan was fashionable. You have to take it seriously and mix and match foods to get your complex proteins and various vitamins and minerals. It isn't easy. Interestingly, I didn't bring my children up as vegans (my mum cooked for them too and I didn't think I dshoudl impose my choices on them) but tow of them (the two who are adults) have now become vegans out of choice. It is much easier to do this today. My health conditions have nothing to do with being a vegan, and its neither here nor there ... but I agree, its very important to realise it isn't the be all and end all. Nothing is that easy

My dad was the healthiest man I've met and I go to the gym every day so I've met a few.

It's a shame the OP hasn't found the dietary requirements for stopping condescending behaviour yet.

I think posts like this turn people off to the potential health benefits of changing lifestyles to ease medical conditions, as in a lot of cases it can assist.

Natural and raw and vegan and any other combination of excluding specific food groups don't solve every problem. Anyone who thinks so is an ass.

Whatever good point can be made about lifestyle changes has been lost in this post by the attitude. Shame because it could have been a good topic.

I have lived an 'alternative, anti establishment' lifestyle for much monger than you, OP, and to be h honest, now everyone is jumping on that particular bandwagon, I think you need to rethink who exactly is owned .... as a few other posters have said, many of us have experience and weighed things up and come to our own opinion. Again I ask, what makes you think you are the only one who has thought about these things?

Yes. There are people like that. There are also people who need to rely on medication to keep them alive. The two aren't the same. I don't understand why some have taken what the op said to heart if they are not eating and living badly which is contributing to their ailments. That's what i took the op to mean anyway.

I am chronically ill. I need an organ transplant. If I don't have one, I will die.

When I first got poorly, I was in the gym 3/4 days a week, running around 40km along side other classes.

I ate well, drank enough water and looked after myself.

My body is still shafted. I'm kept alive by various medication. Sadly, without a transplant there is no cure. It appears that all the diet changes in the world don't stop you being a monumental bellend either.. shame!

Q: how do you tell someone is a vegan?

A: Don't worry. They'll tell you!

Sorry, just had to add that And to the vegans on this thread, I have to say, that takes some dedication. I couldn't do it. My son was vegtetatian for about 8 years, but had to go back to being an omnivore recently as couldn't get enough protein in his body. After a sudden condition resulting in him having 5 neuro operations in 6 days, including 6 hours of brain surgery on his 21st birthday he is now lactose intolerant and so can't eat much cheese. He also can't take soy due to hormone issues so tufo and many meat substitutes are out. In the end he realised that giving up being vegetarian and eating meat again was his only realistic option of having a healthy life and not just subsisting on nuts for protein.

I'm all for helping yourself and alternative medicines, there is however a place for conventional medicine. Even if it's sometimes a short term measure. Some long term chronic conditions, you need tablets or other types of medication for life. I don't think most people like popping loads of pills, but sometimes it's a necessity to stay active and relatively healthy.

There isn't a one size fits all approach for everyone.

"Q: how do you tell someone is a vegan?

Matt, I don't normally tell you I am vegan as I dont like preachy meat eaters so I am not a preachy vegan. I told the OP as he let's vegans down by banging on about it. How do you know if a swingers is on the thread ,... they'd tell you, etc, could be the same for any group. Anyone who wants to seriously be a vegan needs research into complex proteins and vitamins and how to get them. I dont replace proteins with nuts. There are loads more choices these days I am not vitamin D deficient, I know this because I was tested, but plenty of people who eat meat are too. Dont be judgemental about vegans or put them all under the same heading ... same for meat eaters, how does it feel if everyone is told they are the same. We aren't ....

"Yes I am but my lifestyle doesn't contribute to my health conditions. I lead a healthy lifestyle but they are chronic, managed by medication.

Change your diet and see how it goes then. Yes I do realise how silly that sounds but it only sounds silly to a brain that's been conditioned from the cradle to think that when in need the GP is the first step to recovery.

You don't know anything about my health conditions or my diet. So don't be random or disrespectful

Exactly - on defense right from the start. How typical

People are bound to be defensive when confronted with aggressive, confrontational, presumptive arrogant 'arguments' and that is why discussions like this never go well. If you took the time to ask questions and understand other points of view people would have much more respect for you and your lifestyle choice.

I am type 2 diabetic and do taken medication at the moment however the lifestyle changes I am making will hopefully result in my being taken off of them. It takes time to reverse a lifetime of bad choices and there will be relapses along the way. To simply stop any medication without making changes first is fool hardy and dangerous. "

Good luck, another lady who is in the same diet group as me is in the same situation and after 4 weeks the GP said she could come off two of her tablets! x

OP, does most of your health advice come from the internet though?


"What on earth prompted this attack on forumites?

Luchador, sweetie, do you do this to people at social mixers and dinner parties? Do you find that you are the epicentre of a rapidly expanding circle of space as people avoid your self-important, supercilious haranguing? Do you ever wonder why?

Here's a piece of hypocritical advice; leave the advice giving until it's actually solicited.

Don't overthink it - it's just the internet love."

Mainly from books and desperation after mainstream medicine failed me one time too many.

Do you know what they call alternative medicine that actually works. "Medicine"If it's alternative it's often snake oil.

Zap him with some wall socket current to get those limbs in motion, sit back, relax and watch God's work right in front of your eyes."

That's probably the least witty and tasteless thing I've read in a long time.

You know jack-shit about people, their lives and their health issues. So don't make sweeping assumptions. It just makes you look like a pompous idiot.

How old are you OP? You are behaving like a child in the playground. My 9 year old talks about getting owned.

If you have been lucky to help relieve your symptoms with a lifestyle changes good for you. But not everyone is that lucky. Medical science is full of strange bizarre occurrences. Take the number of fit and healthy young men dying from heart conditions at a very young age.

So climb back into your cave and have your khale and banana smoothies and stop trying to wind everyone up.

It's not funny though is it. We need to educate people that frequently their health is in their own hands.

Obesity is a huge issue so is alcohol consumption yet both are seen as something that people have no control over. The issue is far more complex than you describe.
