Hi my name is Franco, i was wondering if anyone on OMAD was diagnosed with any inflammatory immune diseases and since starting on OMAD how do you feel now? Thank you!

    Well, I have OA in my hip, which I think has an inflammatory component?

    I think three things have helped hugely with that (I get hardly any pain now): 1. Turmeric 2. Weight loss 3. Fasting

    Hard to tell which has made the most difference, but I do know if I stop taking the turmeric for a couple of days, I get a LOT of pain back....

    I have early onset OA and I find the fasting does help a little with the inflammation... Pain wise I can't say I've seen much of a difference but definitely in the inflammation

    I just got back on track due to some health issues and even a few days in I can tell the difference, so if you can tell, it's not placebo affect LOL

    My allergies are less severe it seems while fasting. I think I have some food allergies and fasting might help me to get some relief.

    Sorry for the delayed reply - I've been fasting for over a year now. I actually found the pain relief was really quick - like a couple of weeks. Though I really upped my turmeric intake at the same time, so it's hard to tell which had the most effect....
