| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

| | What are you trying to do to poor Evie, Claire. Give her a doze of the "Runs" with that recipe. Have you tried it, and did you have plenty of toilet paper for afterward, LOL.

| | No Scott lol I don't get the runs from juice, I get sick if I eat whole fruits and vegetables, hence why I have to juice everything. There are a lot of foods I can't digest whole. I have a tiny stomach (only 20% normal size), no duodenum, and part of my small intestine is gone now too.
Thanks Claire I never thought of beetroot, I will have to try that one. When you say you mix apple juice and white grape juice, do you mean juice that you're already bought in the store? I'm not permitted bought juice.... have to use all fresh ingredients.
For a while I was making a juice of 2 carrots, 1 green apple, 2 small radishes and a slice of green pepper. It was actually pretty good but I'm a bit sick of it now. Cucumber is really disgusting as juice, so is rhubarb. I don't think I'd like tomato either, as I don't like regular tomato juice. Melons are good, they make a lot of juice and are sweet too, I added a bit of broccoli to melon juice a couple of times and didn't taste the broccoli much. |

| | How about soups? Hello Evie, yes I did mean shop bought apple/grape. If you're not allowed the shop stuff then just try and balance it so its more apple and less carrot or other veggie. So you get more of the sweetness and yummy fruit and less of the revoluting but good for you flavour! Have you tried homemade soups too? My mum's been making a carrot soup recently, I'm not sure whats in it but its carrot and something else. I'll ask her if you like.
Scott: just get back to your deep fried mars bars washed down with Iron Bru! You're not ready for this kind of thing yet! |

| | Hi Claire, how are you. No my friend I don't eat Deep Fried Mars Bar, disgusting stuff. I like Iron Bru, which is actually very good for you. And I eat a lot of pasta and things like that. How was the Isle of Wight. And I make a mean Sausage Stroganoff, its brilliant. So put that in your pipe and smoke it, as we say up hear.
Evie, why don't you make yourself a good Scotch Broth soup, just like your Gran in Scotland used to make. That is guarenteed to fill you up and its great on a cold winters day. Or make yourself a big plate of Scott's Porridge Oats. Great Stuff.

| | Thanks Claire. Carrot soup does sound good, if you don't mind sharing the recipe I would appreciate it!
Yes Scott, I love Scotch Broth, it's my favorite soup actually. I haven't had it for a while but it's very good, I should ask my aunt to make or get some. I like oatmeal too, but can't have that at the moment. I'm only having fluids and some semi-solids. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
