It could be protein! Eat Manitoba Harvest brand organic shelled hemp seeds

and soaked beans!

I'll try it! Thanks!

 

Recipes you would recommend for the hemp seed? Or just put it in my green

smoothies?

 

Cheers!

" I'll let you know if that get's rid of the shakes "

 

Kelle,

In addition to the great info/advice you've gotten from Mark and Jonathan,

I'd recommend doing some reading so you can better understand why your body

is producing symptoms.

 

Briefly, the body's resources are overexpended when we eat foods that are

difficult to digest like cheese, oils, nuts, seeds, etc. It signals its

need to regenerate the lost energy later on (typically the next day) by

creating symptoms of tiredness, impatience, shakiness, weakness, etc., some

of which we mistake for feelings of hunger. If all we want to do is turn

off the symptoms, we can do that quite easily by once again eating something

that is difficult to digest, so the body will have to shift its attention to

that task instead of recouping yesterday's losses. (You may notice that if

you eat something very *easy* to digest, like fruit, the symptoms don't go

away or, if they do, they come back quickly.) But in the end you're deeper

into an energy deficit. It's like whipping a tired horse to make him run.

The best thing to do in response to symptoms is cooperate, rather than

simply turn them off. Weakness and shakiness are signs that the body needs

rest, not more work. Digestion is work for the body.

 

I was hypoglycemic before I went raw and still get 'sugar lows' (although

not as deep as they used to be) the following day after eating fat. When I

stop eating fat, I stop getting sugar lows. I've eaten nothing but fruit

(no avos, no fats, no greens) for the past 6 weeks and have not had a sugar

low.

 

It takes a very long time to get over the need to eat complicated foods,

including fats. It can't be done mentally, it has to coincide with the

body's physical healing. What you can do in the meantime is try to simplify

your combinations, eat your last meal very early in the day (no later than

5pm) especially if it contains fat, eat less fat overall, rest instead of

eating to stop your symptoms whenever you can, etc. I highly recommend

reading the relevant lessons of the Life Science course at

www.RawFoodExplained.com for more info.

 

Best wishes,

Nora
