Despite eating peanut butter and jam sandwiches, since ditching the butter and cheese bean tacos, my fungus has been dying off. (first day results, after sleeping shirt off)
I feel so much better. There is often a short period of withdrawel, but after that I'm on top of the world! No more digestive issues. No more sick feelings in my stomach. No heart burn, no bloating, not immense pains in my gut, nothing. My poop always comes out nice everyday, whereas before I wouldn't be able to poop but once every 3 days, and even then, it was super hard to get it out. I could get very little out, and it would often get stuck halfway out and half of it would have to fall off while the other have is still stuck in there for the rest of the day.
Canned Pears and Peaches
Today I ate a plastic cup of organic peaches and pears, then I noticed a medium sized disgusting looking pimple on my left temple. I remember I was eating canned peaches and pears around the time I got a pimple oen my temple, and suspected the poptarts.
Also, earlier this year, I was eating cabbage, and got cysts on my temple. I still think it was the cabbage. But it's possible it was the bag of pears I was eating, though not probable cuz I ate those for a long time and should have noticed.
I eat canned beans everyday with no problems, so I think its either an ingredient of canned peaches and pears, or something bad happens with the glycemic index of em while contained like that.

Hey buddy, good luck with your diet adjustments. If I may, I would recommend ditching canned foods altogether. I know it's convenient to eat canned foods, but they contain more preservatives, and many people react to the preservatives in canned foods rather than the foods themselves. Even if some canned foods are ok, I would encourage you to try and ditch the cans altogether.
Also, if you don't want to get too paranoid about what you eat, I would recommend a few supplements to prevent big flare ups for when you do eat something that bothers you. I personally have been taking SOD enzymes to minimize my histamine reactions to foods, and I can relax a bit with my diet. Digestive enzymes can also work, especially if you suspect lactose intolerance or gluten sensitivity.

Thanks for the advice. I thought about ditching cans. Are organic canned items any better? I'll probably get frozen fruits and veggies from now on to replace the cans. And I'm not too big on supplements. I've considered b12 since my base diet is vegan.
I find if I cheat on bad refined artificial sugary foods, that I may go through a full day of withdrawal where I have much less energy and very strong cravings. This day has occurred after up to a day of abstinence. So basically it's often day 2 that it happens on. After this day of withdrawal, it's often much easier to avoid these awful foods.
Also, a week of good foods does a lot of healing of the leaky gut.

Canned items are canned items, no matter what's in them...the BHP and other things that cans contain (& give off) is worrysome. There are of course cans that are more consumer-friendly, and it's usually stated on a label so that you can at least pick "healthier" cans.
Frozen foods also have preservatives to stay frozen. Why not just eat fresh fruits and veggies? I know it's less convenient, but if you can replace some of the frozen & canned foods in your diet, that might make a huge difference. I must say, though, that when I didn't have much time to cook, I used to thrive on microwaveable sweet potatoes...I actually looked healthier and I think they helped my leaky gut/ histamine issues a lot.
I'm not that big on supplements either, but if you find the right ones from trustworthy brands then they can make you (& us in general) less paranoid about what you eat & less fearful of having a few cheat items in your diet.
For B12, though, it's difficult to find the right form and right %...I still haven't found a B12 supplement or a multivitamin with B12 that I'm satisfied with.

You're vegan too?!?!
Yeah, I've heard that about cans. Didn't know that about frozen, though. I'll eat as many raw plants as possible. I have a phobia of most plants. I freakout when I'm touched by deformed foods or creepy plants. Especially mushrooms. I was shaking when I grated cauliflower. Yeah I noticed sweat potatoes Helped me a lot, too. They are a superfood.
I heard of this B12 supplement from a trusted, good quality source. When I find it, I'll tell yu what it is if you want to try it.

Sorry to butt in, but what brand do you get your SOD enzymes from?

I take Good N' Natural's SOD. Very satisfied so far!
No, I'm not vegan but I used to be vegetarian for about 15 years.
What's the best B12 supplement in your experience?

I ate dipped cookies in milk almost 2 weeks ago, the wound of the cyst is still here today! It's pissing me off. It causes so much anxiety, but I found today when someone sat right on the side that my wound was on, I sort of accepted the fact that it's here and not hidden, and calmed down and got comfortable and I wasn't even anxious anymore!
Great day for me!
I have yet to find a B12 supplement that doesn't break me out. Solgar has a decent one that also has vitamin C and other stuff (I think also vitamin E), but I think the % of B12 was still too much for me. I read on the low histamine chef's website that duck eggs are an excellent source of B12, but they can be hard to find. I would rather get my B12 from food than supplements.
Cornbread! Cornbread breaks me out, usually with an odd, large inflamed pimple on my forehead that looks like a bug bite. So weird. It's redish and wavy and inflammed looking.

Yeauh Yeauh, I prefer all of my nutrients to come from food. I'll consider that source from florida once I finally find it.
