Being sick is no fun for anyone. Being chronically ill is frustrating, difficult, trying, and sometime saddening. . . I am deficient in Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV- a protein enzyme that breaks down gluten and casein protein- the protein that is in practically all animal products! . . When I eat animal products (meat, eggs, milk) my body has a super hard time processing them and makes me quite ill- like violent lactose intolerance- and I shouldn’t eat them. I work everyday to make better choice and get back to how amazing I felt three years ago on a primarily raw plant based diet. . . My goal of 2019 was to pay more attention to my body, eat when I’m hungry, stop when I am full, and stop eating things that make me so sick. . . #vegan #plantbased #rt4 #rawtilfour #caseinprotein #dietaryissues #autoimmunedisease #deaf #Deaf #hoh #chronicillness #nurse #nursingstudent #studentnurse #nursetobe #nurseinthemaking #psw #cna #rn #rpn #lpn #lvn #adn #bsn #bscn #nurblr #nursesofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BvKcUFrBvlU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sqm7eg8kg46
