Endometriosis is a condition that can be alleviated by the right type of diet.
It will not be cured through diet alone but what you eat and when can improve the symptoms often associated with the condition.
Since the liver controls the expelling of Oestrogen and digestion it is the main organ to focus on for helping with symptoms of Endometriosis.
We can lower our Oestrogen levels naturally by avoiding fatty foods and eating plenty of vegetables and roughage.
This would include harder vegetables such as carrots, broccoli, beans and brussel sprouts.
They also contain high quantities of vitamins which are vital for the liver.
We can give the liver extra boosting ingredients such as turmeric (vegetable not the spice), liquorice and dandelion tea.
Milk thistle and Vitamin B6 is good for the liver and are easy supplements to find and take daily.
Since the immune system is low within Endometriosis sufferers it is a good idea to boost the immune system by giving it extra immune boosting supplements, such as Echinacea and Horseradish.
It is also advisable to add boosting juices to your diet such as Noni Juice or Mangosteen juice.
They contain larger quantities of vitamins and minerals than standard juices which boost the immune system.
Eating fruits high in Vitamin C will also aid in supporting the immune system, such as cranberries and Kiwi fruit.
The body is also experiencing cold or damp in most cases of Endometriosis.
This means you are likely to be cold inside your body (Traditional Chinese Medicine explanation).
Drinking warm drinks filled with "warming ingredients" will often help soothe the body of the cold.
These drinks should contain cardamom, ginger and cinnamon.
Eating soup will also greatly benefit Endometriosis sufferers since it contains vegetables and is naturally warming for the body.
Include Evening Primrose Oil and magnesium in your diet to relieve the cramping and PMS symptoms.
Avoid meat and any fats in your diet.
Meat contains high levels of fat and is difficult for the body to digest adding strain to the liver and all related digestive organs.
High fat content will increase your Oestrogen levels and make the liver work harder.
Avoid fats found in milk, cheeses, yoghurt, meat, butter, peanut butter, crisps, ice-cream and biscuits.
Soy is not an ideal replacement for milk for Endometriosis sufferers.
There is a toxin within soy milk which is more detrimental to Endometriosis sufferers.
Eating fresh fish is a natural fat which is good for the body containing Omega3 and Fatty Acids.
Avoid the heavier fishes like salmon.
Cut out gluten.
80% of woman who have taken this step experience relief from cramping of Endometriosis.
This is any food that contains wheat.
That includes breads, biscuits, some cereals, pasta.
Try this for two months and see if it improves your symptoms.
Replace your breads with rye corn or rice ingredients such as rice pasta, rye bread and corn pasta.
After two months add the bread back gradually and see if the symptoms come back and you will know you have an intolerance to gluten.
Avoid high levels of sugar in your diet.
Sugar can actually be a cause of pain in the body and cause inflammation.
Diet is only one element on a path to recovering from Endometriosis.
These methods may alleviate some of the symptoms associated with the condition and provide some relief from the pain but they will not cure the condition or eradicate it completely.
There are many other methods to help with Endometriosis and ways to really deal with the condition.
