I have not found one that is free of yeast or mushrooms. If you make a great one at home or find one that is clean, let us know!

Eggs
Eggs

There are lots of brands. Make sure they are organic, NON-Omega enriched, and FREE RANGE (NOT cage-free). If you can source them from a local farmer even better.

Milk Alternatives
Milk Alternatives

If you are drinking and eating dairy, we ask that you please locate a local farmer. As hard as it is, local small farmers tend to be more humane than the big factories.

Teas
Tea

We suggest growing some organic mint in your garden and using that for tea. It’s great! Also try to keep organic ginger root in your home, you could use that for tea as well, or lemon rind.

Coffee
Coffee

There are MANY brands. Just make sure it’s organic and French roast. This is safest for those with symptoms. As you go, this rule can loosen up! 🙂 ALSO VERY IMPORTANT- DO NOT USE CAPSULE COFFEE!!! THIS WILL MAKE YOU FLARE.

Water Filtration
Filtered Water

Another option is getting your water tested and having a company build a filtration system just for your home, it is expensive. If you do this, do not get an RO type. This kind of water is devoid of much needed minerals and over time, we believe can cause disease. We have recommended bottled water early on due to the reliability of purity and reaction for those having IC. However, these days, we just can’t feel greatest about that being the only option. We are trying to grow, as we go through our practice and practically through life. Berkey has been recommended by many fighting cancer, and that is primarily what drew our attention to it. We are suggesting this brand for those patients wanting to experiment and see if this works for them. If you do choose bottled water, the brands we have had the most experience with are: Poland Springs, Mountain Valley, Arrowhead, Evian, Fiji.
