In a video posted on her tiktok page she said
"So I'm currently on a holistic journey to shrink fibroids that means I have to go what I will call a fibre diet and these are some of the things I have had to give up.
:Red meat so lamb, cow, goat. All that is good meat is white meat. Sausages processed meat, any form of red meat to the waste bin.
:White carbs so white pasta, noodles,rice, bread I don't need them
:Dairy so cheese whole milk I don't need them.
:Refined sugar, cookies, cakes, condiments, processed food in general I don't need them.
: Carbonated drinks, caffeine, high sodium food, soy, things that are really high in salt.......So we are avoiding these things because they are high in estrogen and you don't want that because those makes the fibroids grow.
But all of this is useless if you are not keeping your stress levels down. But I live in Lagos ,we will be fine''...

It is even worse trying to manage Fibroids and trying to get pregnant...I pray she gets relief soon since surgery did not work for her.....
Chai! 😭
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to those living with fibroids...May God heal you all completely Amen

DeleteLies about relaxer
DeleteGod will heal you completely,beautiful. 🙏🏿
ReplyDeleteMay God crown all your efforts with success and results
ReplyDeleteOh dear 😘
ReplyDeleteWishing you speedy recovery 🙏
Most White carbs are our staple food here. It is achievable but not easy eliminating them from ones diet in this Nigeria where cost of eating healthy isn't funny at all. May God heal her , all having fibroid and even TTC
ReplyDeleteAdd prayer to it.
ReplyDeleteAdd prayer to it.
ReplyDeleteThis fibroid is a woman's nightmare. Thankfully, I had an open surgery that worked. I did Transvaginal scan after 6 months and everything is cleared. SDK, if you see me before the surgery, you did ask what happened to me? Now am all fattened up and good. Na permanent healing we dey pray so. Ini Dima, am sending you love and hugs, you will be fine. God speedy healing. 🧡🧡🧡🤗
ReplyDeleteThank God for you Caren, Ini dima you're healed in Jesus name.
DeleteJesus Christ! Wetin come remain to eat again?
ReplyDeleteMay God come through for her
It's well with you Ini, God i like food too much o, i don't want to be in a position where i will have to let go of all those things she mentioned up there, i may not survive it😎
ReplyDeleteMy dear, it's difficult but doable. Whatever you feed your body now will reflect in decades to come. So, would you like to thank your body in about 30/40 years to come for the lifestyle changes made today?
DeleteThe pain and discomfort that comes with this fibroids no be am. My tummy's not big like the last time (thank God), but the cramps and backpain is really bad. If I have the means to take them out again, God knows I will.
ReplyDeletePls take them out asap, Candy. If you are in FCT, best hospitals are the teaching Hospital at Gwaz. My doctor works at the teaching hospital but has his private practice. I had it done at his private hospital. How do you cope with the cramps and heavy flow? I passed out one time oh.
DeleteMine is just stomach getting big I'm battling with; my stomach that used to be very very flat is not so flat anymore. No other symptoms, thank God for that. I've started avoiding all the food Inidima listed (hasn't been easy cos I love ice cream), and also taking matcha green tea and doing castor oil wrap. I heard they are really good with shrinking the fibroid. My diet now is a lot of veggies and fruit.
Delete@Candy, you can try it too since you've had surgery before. From reviews I read, it even better when the fibroid is not too big yet.
Caren, I start taking pain meds a day or two before my period comes to help with the pain.
DeleteAnon, sorry about that. 🤗. I'm doing lots of tea, veggies and fruits.
@Candy, taking it out is so expensive
Delete@ Anon, following your suggestions
BJ, my dear it is. One just has to make a conscious effort to eat healthy.
DeletePls my people who has used evening primrose? Is it a good supplement? I'm experiencing menopause symptoms since I turned 42, I'm now 43 and it's getting worst.looking for remedies
ReplyDeleteEvening Primrose and Vitamin E capsules will come handy for you as you transition...All the best....Also Wellwoman 40+ too
DeleteTake Magnesium supplement, b-complex and vitamin D. If you feel it will be too expensive buying them individually, take Daravit woman. It is fantastic for premenopausal women.
DeletePlease what symptoms are you experiencing?
DeleteAnnony, my symptoms are hot flash, night sweat, 23days circle from 28 days, missed or delayed periods, migraine and irritability
DeleteIt is well with you beautiful Inidima.
ReplyDeleteShe should also do away with permed hair because she doesn't know the actual one that triggers her fibroids.
ReplyDeleteThese things actually works, and even help with the heavy flow but e no easy to keep up!
ReplyDeleteThings are really costly.
Just buy fruits and veggies for a week and do the calculations. Omo, e Choke.😢
Very good move by this lady. Especially dairy. Avoid all soy products and any high estrogen foods. Household products containing bleach. Hair dyes and relaxers. Increase vitamin D. Green tea is your friend. And as she says, reduce stress!!!
ReplyDeleteMiss Mimi.
It is well with you
ReplyDeleteIni, I feel your pain
ReplyDeleteI pray it works out for you 🙏
It's well with you Ini ,I pray for total healing upon you
ReplyDeleteGod pls heal her and every person fighting with fibroid. Open her womb and bless her with children if she wants them. I pray for all TTC women too, my elder sister included. Soon your homes shall be blessed with the laughter of your own children.
ReplyDeleteAmen
DeleteAmen 🙏
DeleteAmen
DeletePraying for my little sister as well. May God bless them with healthy babies❤️
DeleteAmen
Deleteit's well.
ReplyDeleteNot easy o
ReplyDeleteHave mercy Lord
ReplyDeleteIt is well with you Ini, you will be healed completely,
ReplyDeleteIf someone avoids all the things she mentioned what will the person now eat?
I wish I can tell my own story one day, just dat I'm not good at writing ,.... And I will continue to thank God for showing me MERCY..... If I think of what I went tru fear will grip me... MARK Chapter 5 vs 25-34 was my HOPE.
ReplyDeleteIt is well with you
ReplyDeleteYou may not necessarily have to do away with all the listed food but you can help yourself by adding a lot of vegetables to them. Imagine spaghetti with lots of ugwu in it. Yummy. The other day i made egusi soup with three different vegetables. Bowel movement was fantastic and i felt really light on my waist. I relax my hair once a year.
ReplyDeleteThe US FDA is considering a ban on hair relaxers marketed to black eomen. In my decades in medical care here, I have not seen the number of fibroid cases in white women that we see in black women. It is incomparable and it’s not dietary. Yes white meat is better and a low carb diet helps generally. However, the natural hair movement had other underlying reasons and it started from our young Millenials and Gen Zs not due to fibroids but self esteem “I’m black and proud” issues in the society. Researches linking relaxers to fibroids were an outcome. Btw AA rarely bleach their skin too unlike Naija women. Some studies have suggested that
ReplyDelete“Hair relaxers have been linked to uterine fibroids in Black women. Hair relaxers often contain chemicals like phthalates, formaldehyde, and parabens, which can disrupt hormones and mimic estrogen, a hormone that can stimulate fibroids. These chemicals can be absorbed through the skin or inhaled. One Harvard professor says that 50% of hair products marketed to Black women contain phthalates, compared to 7% of products marketed to white women”
Lies.
DeleteMay God heal every woman dealing with the monster called fibroid. Wetin person go dey chop like like? It is well

God please come through for her and all Battling with Fibroid.

DeletePlease note sisters, every woman should include vitamin D3 in their routine drugs. Lack of vitamin D3 is one of the major causes of fibroid.
ReplyDeleteIs there any supporting research?
DeleteIt is well.
ReplyDeleteBy God’s Grace it will work for you . Please add prayers to that. Wishing your heart desires
ReplyDeleteI wish her well
