Deficiencies linked to food cravings of Oranges!
Hi #steemit family,
Alright strange thing is happening to my Mother the last week. All my mother wants to eat is Oranges!!
As I am winding down to tuck in for the night it hit me.. Halooo! cravings can = deficiency somewhere in her body.
Feeling like real fool for only realizing this now, I hit the dearest google to see what I could find.
Here it goes...
Craving Oranges could mean the following:
Magnesium shortage.
Low blood sugar levels.
I find this so interesting.
As my mother has been very ill the last while it makes perfect sense that she would have low blood sugar as well as magnesium shortages!
Soo... this girl on this of the monitor had a eureka moment! lol pretty slow on the uptake the last while with all the drama and chaos happening in my life that is for sure.
As most of you already know, my mother is fighting metastatic IBC breast #cancer which is really being rather naughty the last few months. We started her on #Cannabis oil therapy about 1month ago now, she had always been taking in cannabis oil since her first surgery in 2013 but when the cancer came back with force we decided to hit it hard with cannabis oil this time at 1g/day.
What happened next is truly remarkable but also rather frightening, the bone cancer is starting to shed off of her ribs etc.. now this is great right?! WRONG... with great leaps forward also comes consequences. Bone cancer actually eats into the bone, so when the cancer sheds off or "out" of the bone it leaves that bone extremely fragile and vulnerable.
This is exactly the case we are sitting in since last week..
More than half the ribs are definitely broken and floating as a result of the cancer shedding.
This is extremely painful and also difficult to deal with if you are a very up and about person.
Any case with the result. . lots of sustenance intake loss for the last two weeks I'd say and now we are sitting with what looks like a magnesium and low blood sugar situation, which luckily can all be sorted out without too much fuss and worry :-D
Follow me to stay up to date as to what is happening ;-)
Lots of love,

Have you heard of Spirulina? Might be something to try. Also apricot seeds.
Hi, yes I have it ;-) unfortunately she cannot take it in at the moment.. very touchy to tastes.. I've even tried sneaking it into her smoothies, meals in different ways but no luck. apricot seeds are fantastic as they are full of laetrile but also.. at the moment with their vile taste they are not even close on the going down the throat list for now, but I also have them in her cupboard as it is part of her normal regime of supplements for cancer..
I appreciate your comment and advice. anything is so welcome, knowledge is power and power helps to heal many ;-)
Lots of love ,

I've seen some research about how smell is the greatest influence on taste. They managed to get people to taste strawberries after feeding them chocolate. They blindfolded them and put strawberry perfume under their nose as they ate the chocolate. Might be something to consider as a way of tricking the mind of what it is eating. Dunno though, just an idea. Such a tricky situation.
Take care and hang in there.
Oh god - such a hard traject. I recently got trough the first round. I too used the oil and now i focus on as much suppletion as possible for bone minerals. The therapies all cost on magnesium but so much more, as you told us. Wish you and your mum the best ♡
thanks for your comment @dutchess!
Yes it seems to be taking a huge tole on her but I hope that it is for the benefit by the end of her treatment with the oil.
I would love to have contact with you and find out as much as you are willing to share about your journey while using the oil for yourself, would you mind to share more with me? my email: [email protected]
Recently she broke a few of her ribs due to the "cancer shedding" off the bones.
I truly hope to have more contact with you xoxo
bless you and healing energy to you for your health problems
Lots of love,
@mysticlilly16
I was thinking about that too - do you havea fb account too? Because messenger would be easier for me than mail. Judith Konings-Engelen is my account name
Sorry to read that your mother is currently battling cancer - Hope the cannabis oil is bringing some relief - It is strange how a craving can indicate that there is an issue with your body. Glad you managed to find an answer through google - At least you have something to work towards - All the best you you, your mum and your family - I'm a new fan xxx
Thank you for your kind words xoxo
