Thank you! For how long did you do the herbs before you noticed any effect?As of this past Tuesday, pretty much the same, minus the eggs. I had cut out the animal protein a few months back after discovering it was triggering the daily adrenaline and syncope episodes I began experiencing after a bought of insomnia brought on by B vitamin supplementation -- the lack of sleep caused the adrenaline attacks and I suspect the AP kept dropping my blood sugar, reinforcing them. Due to the lockdown, the plant protein I had been relying on these past few months isn't currently available so I was forced to replace it with the collagen and shellfish I had leftover and thankfully, I haven't experienced any episodes. So minus eggs, my diet currently includes what I posted previously and:
Small amounts of fiber from:
Black mulberry juice (for making gummies)
- Medjool and Khadrawy dates (Fresh Organic Date Single Variety Packs | Shipping to USA | Shop | 7HOTDATES)
- Freeze-dried mangoes (Trader Joe's brand)
- Young Thai coconut meat (1Lb Frozen Young Thai Coconut Meat)
- Raw olives (Good Faith Farm)
- Tomato paste (for making creamy tomato soup with crab)
- Grilled corn on the cob (only occasionally)
- Roasted Kabocha squash (only occasionally)
Mushroom broth (made from shiitake, shimeiji, field and abalone mushrooms, herbs and sea salt)
Coconut oil mayonnaise for crab seafood salad (Chosen Foods Keto Mayo 12 oz. - MCT Coconut Oil Mayonnaise)
Low acid, water processed decaf coffee (Mavericks Coffee water processed decaf coffee are low acid and organic. - Mavericks Coffee)
I'll be adding eggs back into my diet as soon as I can get to the farm. I like salted scrambled eggs with crab topped with maple syrup.
The majority of my calories (2500+ daily) come from fruit (4+ liters of juice and the rest the date nectar and whole fruit), next protein (around 80g with the majority of it coming from gelatin) and then just small amounts of fat (usually no more than 20-25g) -- more than that and my limbs start falling asleep while sitting, sleeping at night and during my dance practice.
