Hi all! Its my first Thread, but Im reading this forum for about 3years!
(Sorry for my english, its not so good)
Im Nutrition Student in a university here in Brazil, and biochemestry and physiology is good to learn there... but here I can learn a lot more details!
Ill explain my health issues: In 2013 and 2014 I was Raw Vegan, eating a lot pufa nuts and seeds (lots sunflower seeds). After this time I began feel all the pufa overload symptons you can imagine, low temperature, testis pain and low libido.
Pufa was a big problem of course. But reading a lot sources (paleo, ortomolecular, TCM, Ayurveda, Ray Peat, Max Gerson, McDougall) I start to feel maybe I have a big problem with Copper Overload, because seeds, fruits and vegetables have so much copper and little zinc (these two minerals are like antagonists in many places inside the body).
When I Eat Copper rich foods (fruits, orange juice, gelatin, liver, nuts, peanuts, beans, salmon...) I feel bloated and puffy face, but this effect its so quickly to imagine something in the small bowel... these foods inside my stomach reacts begins these effects.
Egg white hurts me too... but this havent copper. BTW, beef have so much zinc and litle copper and its the MOST SAFE protein I CAN EAT! Almost never I had problem digesting BEEF. Another meats are not so safe... chicken and pork are much more dificult.
Egg Yolk its fine, egg white is too much hard to digest. Cheese sometimes is easy and sometimes is not. Ricotta and Whey are too hard.
Resume: I can only eat Beef, yolks, little hydrolized colagen and little cheese. And a lot sugar and some white bread... these carbs are fine and I see these dont have any copper... but fruits react so fast!
Calcium are hard to me a lot times... when I supplement I feel bloated.
Magnesium and zinc are fine.
Im thinking copper overload are hard to correct, because acumulate in a lot tissues, and enterohepatic cycling reabsorb this from bile... Im thinking when I eat Zinc I can eliminate more copper in stools because these minerals compete to be absorbed in small bowel...
WHAT YOU THINK?
