Across the net I've seen info stating that things such as salt/sucrose/caffeine increase adrenaline, is that not the case? Peat says that salt and sucrose decrease stress hormones, right? How can we ascertain whether we're achieving a healthy raise in temp/heart rate/metabolism or if we're just getting ramped up on stress?.
I'm starting to gravitate back towards more Peat-style eating but I'm wondering if all the benefits I felt I was experiencing on my Peat-style diet was just buzzing on adrenaline rather than increased thyroid?. Towards the end of my Peating I was having sleep trouble, feeling antsy and eventually had some kind of panic attack/low blood sugar lameness that totally bugged me out and scared me off the path I was on.
You can see what I was eating and some experiences in this thread viewtopic.php?f=56&t=1495
(Laptop crashed as I was writing that, came back and the text was still here, snazzy!) :)
