Mate, firstly, if you don’t believe that there’s a potential cure to PFS through diet then that’s your choice. But no need to launch into into yet another pointless argument. The REAL problem with the Theories section is when people decide to waste their time rubbishing theories and abusing people.
Secondly, read some of the links that people like Xhorndog have been posting. They’re informative, are written by nutritionists/neurologists etc that aren’t trying to flog some product, and they DO have scientific backing and are clearly showing the link between the gut and hormones, neurotransmitters, and the like.
Even if we don’t have candida or leaky gut, there’s evidence to suggest that strict dieting can resolve our issues over time. It happened for IHP. The creator of the GAPS diet (a brain surgeon, from memory?) managed to cure her son of autism, and countless others of neurological issues. In the past, if you’d have told me that diet could cure autism, I’d have punched you in the face and told you that you’re a moron.
I believe that, if nothing else, the diet and protocol that IHP put in place put his body into heal mode.
Now, for the record, let me state that I firmly believe I have PFS. Finasteride fucked me up, and I have never been the same since. It did something so sinister to me that the act of simply quitting the drug was not sufficient to make my symptoms go away. That much is true. And I’m sure that the molecular study will identify what it is that is wrong. But if someone can cure MS with diet, autism with diet, cancer with diet, then why can’t we cure PFS with diet too?
ANNNNNNND Now that I posted that, you’ve mentioned that you were being sarcastic. Sorry, I didn’t catch that sarcasm at the time even tho English is the only language I speak!
