Can you believe I’m still catching up on my google-reading from vacation? This sounds amazing – hope we still have some fresh local blueberries next week so I can make it!

Fish oil sounds like a nasty medicine given to English children in a Dicken’s novel even though I know people take it today! I much prefer to get my omega 3s from salmon (must try this recipe) and flaxseed. I also have a vegetarian supplement that I purchased at Whole Foods that gets the omega 3s from algae so no fishy after taste.

In reply to Leah @ Why Deprive?. Somewhat. But the soy from food sources is not absorbed in the same way as that from supplements. So soy supplements should be avoided, but not necessarily soy and soy-containing foods (within moderation).

In reply to Kortney.

Kortney, I had the same thought. I have the privilege (and I do mean privilege!) of having a great compound pharmacists as a contact and business partner to answer all of my complimentary and alternative nutrition questions 🙂 While soy supplements are to be avoided, the estrogen-like effects of soy foods are usually not an issue in those with endometriosis. Great question, though…I was under the same impression before talking to my brilliant buddy 🙂

I love how many fruit sauces I’ve been seeing. Just can’t get enough of the combo of savory and sweet. I need to give salmon another try. I wasn’t the biggest fan of it last time I had it. Sad I know.

Curious to hear about your sources/reasonings behind the soy in-take? Estrogen is terrible for my endo and soy only makes it worse – I can feel it inflame when I’ve had soy products. The less estrogen in my body, the better!!! Dinner, however, looks amazingly delicious!!!

I dont like fish, so I worry about getting my Omega 3s. I have a bottle of fish oil in my fridge and I try and take some every day. I keep it right beside the water so its impossible for me to forget about it. 🙂

Thanks for posting the endometriosis diet. Its funny though, I heard the opposite about soy. I guess it just depends on the person?
