List of health issues, fixed and unfixed

These are the conditions and annoyances I’ve attempted to solve over the past 12 years with nutritional therapy. The goal is to move everything into the “resolved” list — only occasional maintenance needed with whatever nutrient(s) caused the problem in the first place. (Although occasionally the causes change over the years.)

Please note that I did not have all of these at the same time, and some of them just made fleeting appearances now and again. Some I had before going gluten-free and some arrived after. In each post I’ve bolded whatever supplement or treatment was of help for that issue, or the main factors causing it. In all cases, I had also been taking other supplements besides the ones indicated.

I will link to each post as I write it.

Resolved: nutritional deficiency(ies) corrected and supplementation only needed every once in a while

acne
carpal tunnel syndrome
depression
digestion, lousy
headaches and migraines
hypoglycemia
hypothyroidism
leg pain
memory loss (see #2 on this page)
rhinitis/sinus issues
sciatica
vertigo

Controlled: symptoms have abated with supplementation, but return when it is stopped

abdominal pain
asthma
brain fog/difficulty concentrating
fingernails, weak and stupid
hair loss/hair thinning
appetite, lousy
menorrhagia
TMJ

Unresolved: haven’t figured out the problem, or know the problem but cannot fix it for various reasons (e.g. bad reaction to required supplement)

cravings, maddening, usually for chocolate
eye floaters
fatigue, perpetual but not technically “Chronic”
failure of world to recognize my true genius
insomnia
iron levels, low (and occasionally mild anemia)
tinnitus
