As a gentle comment...I guarantee the reason you have

digestive problems is because of not eating vegetables.

 

The gut bacteria loves plants...the bacteria feeds off the fiber & helps

boost the immune system, as well as many other positive benefits.

Yes.  We eat salad with dinner six out of seven nights. Husband a convert and now loves salad as much as I do.  Mostly romaine, with a few other types of lettuce mixed with it as the base.

Yes--never stopped. I made sure I knew where it was grown--locally--and that it was organic. Paid more for it but thats the way it is.

I stopped for a couple of weeks, then started eating it again when the source of the infection was determined.  My store carries Romaine and lettuce mixes that are deemed "safe" at this time.  I crave salad for lunch.  Gotta have it.

Re: Eating Romaine Lettuce Yet?

Nope.  I am off of all salads made of things that can't be peeled or have no history of issues until this is solved for long time.  May never go back.  I eat spinach, collards, and turnip greens cooked.  But I'm off lettuce.
