Although I pointed out a long time ago the antithyroid effects of excessive cysteine and tryptophan from eating only the muscle meats, and have been recommending gelatinous broth at bedtime to stop nocturnal stress, it took me many years to begin to experiment with large amounts of gelatin in my diet. Focusing on the various toxic effects of tryptophan and cysteine, I decided that using commercial gelatin, instead of broth, would be helpful for the experiment. For years I hadn't slept through a whole night without waking, and I was in the habit of having some juice or a little thyroid to help me go back to sleep. The first time I had several grams of gelatin just before bedtime, I slept without interruption for about 9 hours. I mentioned this effect to some friends, and later they told me that friends and relatives of theirs had recovered from long-standing pain problems (arthritic and rheumatic and possibly neurological) in just a few days after taking 10 or 15 grams of gelatin each day.
I take around 12gm with milk and sugar before sleep. No miracle cure but helps.
Also, I find ice cream with little honey and salt to help sometimes
The benefits of the carrot salad takes sometime to show, I believe.
It's not really after few months of eating it my digestion started getting better.
I have been making (salted caramel) milk share with gelatin for a while, sometimes it seems to work, sometimes it doesn't. But I am definitely going to experiment with the amount, I may not be adding enough.
