I feel you. Those were my 2 favorite drinks, too! CO2 in carbonated drinks is highly acidic. I have pH test strips and it is insane how much acidic content in sodas even diet ones you'd think just the sugar is the acidic part. Funny thing, crystal light affects me more despite not having CO2, go figure. What I do when I cheat is take 2 capsules of sodium bicarbonate (or a teaspoon of baking soda in water if you don't gag like I do) or take a high dose of turmeric (4 capsules of 800 mg) and it counteracts the acidity. I took a pic of my results.dogmom said:
Dairy, gluten, soy, eggs, refined sugar, seed oils are the primary ones. I couldn't understand why I was up all night in raging pain for years; pain killers didn't help. I was having a hard time walking, and started calling out of work more and more because my joints hurt too much to complete my job responsibilities.trojanpeptide said:
I learned about AIP to manage inflammation. It had a pretty dramatic effect. I had believed living in pain was just "the way it is," but removing these foods was a way to "restrictive freedom."
I honestly can say I do not miss those foods, because the brief enjoyment of eating them was far exceeded by the days of pain. I eat very well and nourished with plenty of health fats, proteins, carbs, and vegetables.
Thanks for your responses @GrandmaJ and @Crumplestiltskin . I looked over the case for complex starches made by Dr. McDougall and have to admit, I do not eat too much starch nowadays. Don't get me wrong, I Love my potatoes, but maybe too much so. I eat some beans and edamame, but nothing too serious.
As far as cutting "Dairy, gluten, soy, eggs, refined sugar, seed oils", this is a large part of my diet which hasn't ever really caused me inflammation. I don't think I'd need reta if I cut those foods.
If it gets bad again today, I'll try some more KPV, but its behaving atm. I've made a GHK/KPV mix that I normally use each morning, 2.5/0.5mg respectively. I was running the last bits of the mixture and it really hurt to inject, enough that I just wanted to quit altogether. But I remade the solution this week, and filter sterilized using my newly crafted BAC water, and you know, these last two mornings I used it, ~ absolutely no pain ~. I wonder if the last batch went bad? Maybe systemic inflammation related to endo exposure (or worse)? I really should split the batch and freeze half. I will when I receive new sterile flasks.

The fact that fda/pharma have demonized it tells me allll I need to know. Plus that I already knew that borax has legit benefits from prior research.laansasa said:
For me, BPC is a game changer. I have arthritis in both knees (4/5 in one and 3.5/5 in the other). Used haluronic injections last July and then found BPC a few months later. Although the injections are only supposed to work for 6-7 months max, I am 10 months post, and with the help of BPC, I can get into a catcher's squat, which I was unable to do for decades.
Yeah, have you seen the borax conspiracy? Interesting read. I attached it for you.amosmylove said:
Also, I recently got some eye drops that my ophtalmologist recommended and guess what is in them? Borax and Boric acid of all things! Go figure!

The only thing that helped me, and changed my life, like improved it 10 fold was Pentosan Polysulfate Sodium injections. 2 jabs a week for 6 weeks SUBQ.
I went from not being able to lift weights, or move my arm above my head, excruciating pain, to being 95% pain free.
The only discomfort I really have is lifting weights with an overhand grip in certain positions. I solved this by going to a neutral grip.
Changed my life, i recommend it to anyone with osteoarthritis.
As people have already mentioned, adjusted diet really helps.
That being said, I have arthritis in my knees from years of hard on the knees sports as a younger person and carrying an extra 180lbs around for 15 years.
I did get some relief from BPC and TB...but so far the best thing I have found is the bioregulator Cartalax. Cartalax along with diet has reduced my knee arthritis pain by about 75%
