Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Hi, I feel that I am overeating nuts because I feel my stomach is really heavy the next day. All this overeating started since I decided to quit eating grains. I used to eat sprouted buckwheat with raisins and that used make me feel satisfied. Is it the carbohydrate that was keeping me happy? Now, no matter how much fruit/veggies I eat I still feel hungry and crave for nuts/seeds. I usually end up binging on nuts in the evening, and feel horrible the next day. Should I be eating more starchy food? like Bananas and Carrots? Any suggestions? Can you share your experiences with regards to stay away from overeating nuts and seeds? Thanks, Ramesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Good morning, Ramesh! Sweet fruits are our friends. Eat lots of them all through the day, then your veggies and salads in the evening. I've been doing this for almost two years and I hardly ever get hungry. I have to go without food for an extended period of time to feel true hunger. Bananas are nutritious, delicious, easily obtained, and reasonably priced. They can also be fixed in a variety of ways so I never get tired of them. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hi Tommie, I couldn't help wondering what recipes you like with bananas? Also I have a couple of recipes that require freezing the bananas first, I wonder if freezing alters the enzymes the same way cooking does? and if not then why not?

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Hi Audrey, Eating how many dates at a times is healthy? I can't stop myself from eating 10-15 dates at a time. I wonder if that is too much sugar. What is a good food group to mix with Dates so we don't overdo them? Thanks, Ramesh Audrey Walker <chilove88 wrote: Hi Ramesh, I completely agree with Tommie.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Dear Ramesh, I used to eat FAR too much " raw " almond butter. What's worse, I used to eat it with honey, or on bananas (sweets+fats=digestion turmoil!). Plus, the almonds in the " raw " almond butter I was buying were deifinitely not soaked, and possibly not really raw either I eventually just got over that phase though--nuts slowly lost their appeal and I found myself wanting more greens and veggies...but I have to say, it was an expensive and bloating phase that I wouldn't wish upon anybody else. In preparing raw food for other people who are used to eating cooked food or are just in the midst of a transition to raw foods, I have noticed that, as you pointed out, starchy foods do seem to greatly diminish the desire for nuts and fats. Here's a recipe I created that is very filling and satisfying but minimally fatty: " Cozy Acorn Squash Soup and Crackers " serves 2-3 people 1 acorn squash, peeled and chopped into pieces 2 tbs raw brazil nut oil, or raw almond oil, or raw macademia oil, or 1/2 cup soaked brazil nuts, pine nuts, almonds or macademias * Remove seeds from squash and place on dehydrator tray, sprinkled with salt. * Process until smooth, adding a little pure water to facilitate processing. * Add in sea salt, black pepper, ground cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon to taste. You can spoon some of this onto a dehydrator tray to make crackers. Refrigerate the rest of the squash purée until mealtime. When you're ready to eat, pour the purée back into the processor, pour in some warm (105-110 degree) water and process until smooth and slightly warm and tasty. If the crackers and seeds are ready (15 hours, about), sprinkle seeds on top of soup and serve soup with the crackers. OK, it's a bit complicated but so worth it. My point is: yes, starches help diminish cravings. They're natural serotonin-boosters. But cooked food consistencies also help with cravings--mushy and dried consistencies, especially. You can make purées out of yams, squashes, carrots, yucca, jicama, all that good starchy stuff. Another thing: have you just recently started eating raw? At first our bodies are so used to feeling heavy and bloated that we will stuff ourselves to create that uncomfortable feeling that we're used to experienceing after a meal. If so, don't worry at all, it will pass. Yet another thing: maybe your body just needs a lot of nuts and seeds right now. It's possible. Just make sure you're soaking everything and try not to eat them with fruit or sweeteners! One more: promise yourself to only eat when you are truly hungry, to eat slowly, in small bites, chewing each bite lots and lots and lots, and pausing to check how you feel in between each bite, in a state of awareness of what you are putting into your body and why. If you eat this way, you will know the exact moment at which you have eaten all that your body wants you to eat of whatever you're eating, and you will not feel stuffed or heavy. Best of luck! -Storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Yup, if you're overeating dates too--10-15 dates contain a crazy amount of sugar, you know--I would suspect that your serotonin is low. Eat raw starches for an immediate serotonin boost: yams, squash, carrots (carrot juice with ginger is my favorite!) etc. And get your Omega 3 fatty acids! They will stabilize you so you will have fewer cravings. Flax seeds and/or eventually, a piece of sashimi-style raw wild-caught salmon, tuna, or mackarel. I don't wish to shock anybody here with this info--I realize most everybody here is vegan--but, in the name of science, I must admit that I have found that I get all edgy and experience severe fat cravings about once every 4-5 months, which it feels no amount of nuts/seeds will satisfy, then I have one small piece of raw fatty coldwater wildcaught fish, and I feel great again. I wonder why this is... Blessings! -Storm rawfood , " ramésh " " ponnéganti " <ciaoramesh wrote: > > Hi Audrey, > > Eating how many dates at a times is healthy?

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 Storm, Thanks you so much for your response. Yes, I am a recent raw foodist and also I am " vata " body type. They say typically vatas crave fatty food probably because they are on skinny side. So I am going to experiment with carrot juice with ginger. Is there any simple way of eating yam and squash with no elaborate preparation?

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 > Is there any simple way of eating yam and squash with no elaborate preparation? Ramesh, Yes of course you can always juice them, or eat them grated or chopped small (in a processor) as a salad, or simply carve them into round disc-shaped slivers and treat them like crackers. I use thin slices of yams like chips, with guacamole, or with raw tahini and honey, or by themselves sprinkled with lemon juice.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hi, I'm Thintap from Love Food Lane. I work with Storm. Simple, quick things you can do with yams: Cut them into skinny slices and enjoy them as " chips " ...for a dip, try blending yams, olive oil, garlic, sea salt, curry and a few carrots. It takes approximately ten minutes at most to do. Cutting up yams into tiny pieces and adding them to a simple salad is nice too. I'll ponder this some more. I'm also curiious about your commment on your Ayurvedic type. I think I may have a similar body type as well. I weigh 155# and stand at 6'5 " , though I feel quite healthy.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hello, Rune! There's a recipe on my forum for bananas that I love. http://reallyrawfood.com/forum/index.php?topic=14.0 or copy and paste the address into your browser. Another one that is yummy is Banana Oatmeal. There's a picture on my blog: http://www.reallyrawfood.com/2005/11/12/113183075532745526/ with an explanation on how to make it. I use bananas for my base for my green smoothies, too. My favorite of all time is bananas, mangos, and spinach. Just be careful of your combinations if you want them to digest with no problem. Bananas are sweet so they combine well with other sweet and sub-acid fruits but not acid. There's a basic food combining chart here: http://reallyrawfood.com/forum/index.php?topic=53.0 Good luck!

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Runestar, I failed to address your question about freezing bananas. To tell you the truth, I don't know whether the enzymes are altered or not but eating frozen food isn't optimal. If I have to freeze something, I thaw it before eating or using in a smoothie. I don't like really cold foods, anyway, unless it is exceptionally hot weather. Once in awhile, in the summer, I'll have something frozen like mango sorbet. Later!

jchalla Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Hi Ramesh, Anything we eat should be in moderation. I firmly believe that you can't eliminate one group of food totally. You have to reduce the portion size. I love dry fruits but it is not as healthy as fresh ones. These days vegetables consumption should be priority one, then comes fruits, carbohydrates, proteins (plant is better over animal protein), Fats are essentials too, like Omega-3 fatty acids. There are good fats and bad fats, like wise there are good carbs and bad ones too. I prefer whole grain/multi grain compared to white bread. If you happen to like Dates & dry fruits then just take 1-2 dates chop 'em into pieces and garnish 'em on your salad. Always start with veggies then carbs and then proteins. Some cultures insist on having some dessert/sweet before starting your meal that way you are satisfied and rest of the meal will help keep insulin rush busy. Best of all its very important to stay quite, pay attention to your food and chew it few more times to enjoy it thoroughly. Hope these tips help you. Btw your name looks very familiar. Do I know you? Best wishes, Jyothi Challa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sscookwaresets Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 hello ramesh, when ever you crave to eat nuts drink water... use it as a diversion. you can also try carbonated water if you want for a change. add lime to water , make it different each time you have a craving and soon you will lose the zeal to eat nuts. thx and let me know how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahyoung75 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Hi, I feel that I am overeating nuts because I feel my stomach is really heavy the next day. All this overeating started since I decided to quit eating grains. I used to eat sprouted buckwheat with raisins and that used make me feel satisfied. Is it the carbohydrate that was keeping me happy? Now, no matter how much fruit/veggies I eat I still feel hungry and crave for nuts/seeds. I usually end up binging on nuts in the evening, and feel horrible the next day. Should I be eating more starchy food? like Bananas and Carrots? Any suggestions? Can you share your experiences with regards to stay away from overeating nuts and seeds? Thanks, Ramesh I like nuts and seeds. These are a good source of proteins. You should eat raw nuts. Nuts contain rare amino acids that are destroyed in cooked protein. Seeds are good source of essential minerals and beneficial oils. As with nuts, do not overeat. You should eat fruits and salads.

eminem12 Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 There is no harm in consuming nuts or seeds since they are considered quite healthy as well as nutritious. Many peoples are advised to consume dried fruits including nuts and raisins to stay fit. But anything in excess can be really fatal for your whole body. You need to consume these foods in moderate amount. Try to include fruit juices, soyabeans, etc in your diet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godofpathos Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I suggest pre-portioning out your nuts. You can make a mixed nut trail mix with raisins etc. and then measure out a quarter cup serving size, and place them in individual snack-size baggies.

venumssi Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 No problem even you have took more seeds and nuts. The body consume fiber and essential micro nutrients through such healthy nuts and seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
