I’m laughing so hard right now. I’ve been researching the first couple of dozen posts on the thread for hours. I just came back to FR and found the MOST private messages that I have *ever* had in my life! lol!
I want to thank you all for your responses. I’ve got a lot of work to do. I’m especially grateful for resource info and product recommendations.
It’s going to take some time, but there is hope for an answer out there. :)
Just to let you guys know where I’m at right now.
I’ve recently revamped my diet to a adrenal support/hypoglycemia diet. It’s basically modified paleo. (Paleo plus tiny portions of amaranth and quinoa and some dairy. My daughter has developed a problem with dairy, so she’s doing pure paleo)
DIET RULES
Eat every 2-3 hours
Each ‘meal’ must contain:
- 10-15g carbs
- >5g fat
- Some protein (not limited)
FOOD LIST
- All meats
- Fish
- Eggs
- Seeds/nuts
- Fruit (small amounts)
- Unlimited veggies (low carb)
- Unlimited spices/seasoning
- ¼ C of cooked wild/brown rice mix is a serving of carbs
- Amaranth
- Quinoa
- Butter
- MCT oil
- Coconut oil
- Yogurt
- Cheese
- Milk
- Peanut butter
- Cottage cheese
- Bullion
THE ‘ABSOLUTELY NO FREAKING WAY’ FOOD LIST
- Wheat, oats, rye, barley
- Processed foods
- Sugar
- Anything fried
- No transfats (gives me severe tachycardia)
I’m adding diatomaceous earth, a good probiotic, colustrum, digestive enzymes, and L-Glutamine, and a good anti-inflammatory fiber drink that I’ve had good luck with in the past.
If anybody thinks that I’m starting out *wrong*, please stop me! lol!
That’s my beginning.
