I've read so many articles and this one by far has helped me so much. I can't eat pork, beef, apples or ice berg lettuces, but can eat baby spinach. I'm so desperate to find healthy home remedies to help me at this time. I've been off and on steroids for 10yrs and really don't like how it makes me feel.

Thank you so much for the useful information. =)
