Default Fibro Questions

Hello everyone, I am Sherry from Sask Canada. I have been an active low carber for a couple years and have all but met my goals.

This is not about me however. Its about my mom. Mom has Fibro and a couple years ago I researched Guiafinasen (sp?) and we started her on it. It helped her tremendously. However, I am not sure whether her body is becoming immune to the Guif or not over time, but she is certainly having a rough time of it these days. I am wondering whether she should maybe increase her Guaif but she has such awful stomach problems that the Guaif just sits in the pit of her stomach and causes her all kinds of grief as it is just to take it.

I have talked to her about low carb and she has seen how my stomach and various minor health ailments have disapeared since starting this woe, but I don't have enough good information about low carbing and Fibro to state an accurate case to her. She said "I can't eat salads and broccoli etc, its too gassy for me" I told her. "if you were on low carb, your stomach would heal all that" but I lack the information needed.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you
