A little warning, and need advice

Thanks for your input and advice, much appreciated.  I started taking the co-codamol for tension headaches, which morphed into painkiller headaches, so that now that I've come off the codeine I no longer get headaches, apart from the occasional hangover lol!  I'm not too worried about my digestive tract as the pain is only intermittant and bearable, I only take plain paracetamol 500mg now, and not the max dose in a day either.  Used to be on the nsaid Naproxen, and before that, diclofenac, neither of which I understand are good the stomach, both of which I have now been taken off.  I do take Omeprazole for reflux which works well for me, I certainly know about it if I ever (rarely) forget, or even delay, my morning dose.

All the best

I didn't know that, thanks x

I've just started a complete oil change in my diet.

Only having rapesead oil as its only 2 to 1 in the omega 6 to omega 3 still to high in the omega 6 but not much compared to others and its higher in mono which is the preferred meditranion choice in there diet.

And also fish oil capsiles and sardines each day lol.

Sardines are great they hold just as much omega 3 as a wild Atlantic salmon.

One small can of sardines 100 grams at 40 p is the equivalent of the same amount of omega 3 as some verry expensive fish and they taste great.

Its working for me to as the oils are verry good for joint mussles and the brain and imflamority.

I'm having fish oil and rapesedd oil only with every meal but at the correct level 33 percent of the total cals for the meal.

I tell ya I've never been so good cut out white sugar too and just getting my sugar from honey fruit and carrots now

To that seemed to help me a lot.

And probably I'm only having no more than 40 grams of sugar a day as well I tell ya its been hard but since learning how yo make healthy deserts its a lit better Lol

yogurt pare and honey go well but I try to stay in no more than 12.5 gram of sugar hit so easy on the honey lol that stuff will kill ya unless I'm exercising and then not much more if that's the case.

I like slow. Exercise over longer period so I have no need to over do it on the sugar

You can normal tell.

I git my cal levels to the whole day with about 200 cals a day all healthy foods and its working for me.

Im feeling great judt eating brown rice and jackets now as my staple carb and banned the rest for now

As of thisoment I'm craving sugar but we all know that's a good sign let me know if any of you guys want some really good diet advice on a fuel week I can give yas all a diet that will defo have ya feeling better. Oil levels for each meal healthy snacks preperation of food rake care dudes

But quite searioyse I didn't know I had only been eating only 100 cals a day for long periods and other periods mostly that was probably sugar and fat.

Like one meal a day and stuff not good

Yes, a lesson well learned, but the thing to remember is that when one has mental health problems as I do, and addictive tendancies, common sense tends to fly out the window!  I am doing well today though and being kind to my digestive tract, trying to eat sensibly and not overdoing any one food or drink, I'm also keeping of the alchohol which can also upset my bowels.

Thansk for your reply and I hope my experience, indeed our experiences, can guide others who come here.  I've made some bad mistakes over the years as well as having recovered from bipolar disorder with the help of my psychiatrist and gp and want to share that knowledge to help others.
