So I have finally contacted Benedicte from Biochem Nordic to do something about my messed up metabolism. Turns out I have enlarged thyroid, including low temps of 35 C before eating and mainly poor blood sugar regulation. I was advised to not eat cereal type starches (potatoes and root veg and rice cakes are OK). I was just wondering why I crave especially rice cakes since other cereal type foods are out? Nothing satisfies my hunger/calms down my blood sugar like DRY starch appropriately combined with protein and fructose. Anyone of the same experience? I am curious if it is to do with cultural conditioning (and it's all in my head) having to have part of diet starch based or if it is the need for dry starch since everything else is so liquid? Tried parmesan which is dry, ice-cream, certainly dense compared to plain milk, but nothing satisfy my hunger like plain rice cake.
