I joined this forum about 5 years ago. I just asked a question about feeding my dog, well, then time passed. With his passing, I was reminded again of Ray Peat.
So, I have been perusing the forums and signed up with Forefront Health as they follow Ray Peat's method of eating. However, I'm so slow in the morning, not realizing my blood sugar is crashing. This morning after walking the dog, and not having eaten anything, I took my temperature...the digital thermometer seemed a bit confused with my temperature of 93.3f. Eating breakfast brought it back to 97.1f.
I have started Progest-E and eating 5 or 6 times a day following Forefront Health's recommendations. I have dessicated thyroid on the way.
I do get acid reflux and gas from drinking coffee and chocolate, and digesting food in general. I am slowly trying coffee, a tablespoon with milk, simple syrup, baking soda and collagen. Tomorrow I'll try cold brew coffee, see if it makes any difference.
Other than that, daily carrot (great result the first day, but disappointed after that, back to rabbit pellets - trying to lower my iron maybe...), lots of milk and oj, with baking soda, also chicken or beef broth frequently. I enjoy @Rinse & rePeat 's orang julius for supper a few times a week.
Will have to make meringues soon with all the egg whites I'm saving up.
I also made the lemon gummies with oj, so I can have a quick snack before breakfast.
Hubby thinks milk is gross, but he's pretty supportive. At least he's eating more fruit.
I live in Ontario Canada, so no raw milk, but I discovered a piece of PR cheese in my fridge, about 5 years old, lol.
I thought I'd share a bit here as I've learned so much (and gotten so confused) from the forums.
