That was actually one of Ray Peat his goals, to create a healthy diet for people without a lot of money.
Milk, Eggs, Potatoes, and Chocolate are cheap foods you can buy in bulk, and are very low in PUFA and high in nutrients.
Orange Juice, Meats and Shellfish if you have slightly more money to spend.

Recently I've been eating eggs with butter, lots of milk and orange juice but I've ran out of orange juice and I can't keep drinking milk because of digestive issues and it gives me a rash on my face and gives me brain fog .. eggs to much gives me constipation and stomach aches .. I don't eat much because of digestive issues and money issues..

I would add White rice or Potatoes, Cheese, and Chocolate, to your diet. But that's just what I would do. Maybe some meat like Chicken breast or Steak once in a while too.

It's very limiting to life and the spirit, to be poor.

I suggest making more wealth. Being richer is THE most beneficial thing you can do for your life and health.

How would you recommend someone in the cycle of poverty pull out into wealth/abundance?

Gelatin supplement or gelatin via short cooked broth did wonders for my gut. I couldn't do milk for years until that - cracked lips within minutes. Now I can drink lots of milk daily.
