What's new?
Diet: Experimenting with fruit and overall more carbs again. Yes, even grains (gasp!). Starting with buckwheat for now. Boom, I am having more energy. I know, what a surprise (not). I got this sneaky little theory that low carb works best for men anyway, while women need more carbs (and fruit), or at least they do better on it. So many theories in my head, hehe. Do I go back high carb vegan now? NO. I try and go back to a diverse healthy diet (seems like the disordered eating is still having a hold on me, but looking on the internet, I don't seem to be the only one :D). Anyway, yesterday I went for a long hike in the sunshine and even did a bit of running in between. My last attempts of running were awful. I wasn't even eating super low carb but kinda low carbish with mainly some sweet potato as my source. (Maybe a real low carb aka ketogenic diet would be different energy-wise). So back on the bananas and I feel like a light switch has turned on again. Maybe that was the reason for my low libido as well. D'oh! I keep on making the same mistakes it seems. I wonder though if I should rather focus on starches than fruit sugar to keep blood sugar balanced. Experiment continues. The massive bloating slowly went down! So this could be due to: lauricidin suppositories, peppermint oil orally (suppositories in the making), cbd oil or diet changes (less vegetables, more fruit - you would expect the opposite though). Maybe it's a bit of all. Which leads me to the cbd oil. Not quite sure yet about the effects but it usually takes some time anyway (which is a bummer because I am always doing so many things at the same time so I never quite know what works and what not - keep on making the same mistakes). Was feeling more cheerful though lately. I am mainly the guinea pig because I want my grandmother to get on it for her severe arthritis pain. I am trying to learn more about the endocannabinoid system. I am one of those rare cases who never got high smoking weed. So there might be a genetic receptor thing going on. It could also be that it's shut down due to disease (toxins?). So with the cbd I am hoping to wake up my endocannabinoid system. Maybe it is similar to other psychedelic drugs like ayahuasca. My first ceremonies were pretty low key. It seems as if my body was so toxic that it takes a while to wake up those receptors. My last ceremonies anyway were beautiful with lots of visions so maybe I should try smoking weed sometime again ;) I am almost through my sample of the Mitosynergy copper. I am taking two extra strength in the morning with no notable side effects so I wonder if that is a good sign? Maybe I am not deficient in copper after all? But of course it has been just a couple of days. I would love to give it more time but it's quite a costly supplement, so I will have to reconsider that. So far it has changed nothing to the better though as far as I can see. Some people said it helped with cold hands for example. Nah, still ice cold. Well my thyroid is still sub optimal (no white moons on fingernails and I can see it's still a big enlarged. I continue my iodine intake). I found a private lab nearby that will test anything you want for pretty cheap so that will be my next step to test my zinc and copper levels, besides lots of other stuff. I know I am still zinc deficient as I am still showing signs (white spots on the nails, dandruff). For detox I make a yummy cilantro pesto the other day, now that we are having lots of organic cilantro. Been eating a bit daily. In my very toxic past this would have made me very sick but now I can handle it so that's a good sign. I mean, how much more do I need to detox? I am very very hopeful though for the Advanced TRS that should arrive soon. Again, expensive, but I read so many positive comments now about it. I will let you know! I am starting back on my morning ritual practise of affirmation, visualizing and gratitude. SO important. My meditations were a bit meh lately but I also didn't put that much effort into it. Maybe time to switch it up. I think that's it. :)
