Maybe someone can help me out with the following:
Trying a very low-fat approach now for several months (< 30g) but I consistently get estrogen related symptoms when going below a certain threshold. I think it has something to do with increased PUFA release because Vitamin E (and also coconut oil) helps to get symptoms in check quickly but that has another downside: After a while of low-fat + Vitamin E (1500 IU) I become very hot, sweating profusely, stressed out, anxious and I think very sensitive to Adrenaline (coffee can be very dangerous in such a situation). Also, gastrointestinal hypermotility quickly escalates into full-blown diarrhea. In such a hyperexcited state Niacinamide 500mg brings me down quickly.
What should I make of all this? I don't want to increase my fat intake because that would immediately lead to weight gain (>70g fat seems to be the threshold here, I'm now at 88kg and want to loose fat). Nutrition-wise everything is ok according to Peaty standards. ~2800 kcals/day.
Specifically I want to ask if there's consensus that Niacinamide as a lipolysis inhibitor would halt my ongoing fat-loss? Please see here http://peatarian.com/44809/lipolysis-confusion ... I think we didn't come to a definitive conclusion in that thread.
Thank you.
