GI PSA: Avoid Carrageenan!

I deal with IBS and chronic diverticular disease and found out not long ago how damaging this emulsifier is.
I was literally poisoning my system.
You’ll find it in all sorts of milky/creamy foods. Ice cream is a huge culprit….especially Blue Bell. Also, some nut milks and non-dairy creamers have it in them. Hell, found out today Starbucks egg white bites have it. SMH.
I encourage those with GI issues to read the labels and such.
Take care folks!

We live in a world that has prioritized making a buck rather than health.
They put that shite in there to maximize sales and profit.
Watch out for other things like titanium dioxide. I found out I am allergic to it and when you start reading labels, you realize it is in everything.

What exactly is this stuff?

Eat whole foods with minimal ingredients.
It's so fricking annoying how much shite is added to everything. Like, you'll be on an airplane and they'll give you a bag of cashews or something. Ingredients? Cashews, soybean oil, sunflower oil. WTF

Its a thickening agent used in a lot of pre workout and amino supplements. No reason for it to be in there and I avoid any supplement company that uses it. JYM puts it in just about every product they sell.

“IBS and chronic diverticular disease”.
I had IBS for years and 5-6 episodes of diverticulitis.It was miserable,alternating constipation and diarrhea.
Finally gave in and had colon resection in 2010 and it has been life changing.
Surgery wasn’t fun but it was worth it.
Nothing I eat bothers me now and I’m pretty much regular as a clock.
Only thing that constipates me are mustard greens which is kinda weird to me,they give my wife the squirts.
We don’t eat many mustard greens.

That is disgusting. Can’t even imagine having intercourse with a female that nasty. She’s probably obese as well. Damn that’s disgusting.

It’s derived from red seaweed (aka Irish moss). It’s used to thicken creamy things.
Do a bit of googling and you’ll discover it’s used to inflame the GIs of lab animals and the UK is currently banning it as a carcinogen for colon cancer.
shite destroyed me
