Re: warning: fasting is dangerous!

Hello greykodama,

a typical day or week of eating for me? and Do I eat seasonally?

In answer to the first part I rarely eat breakfast at the traditional time. Breakfast, or break--fast for me is usually at what everyone refers to as lunchtime, followed by my main meal in the evening. This allows my digestive system to rest more than the "norm" and provides extra energy in the morning hours.
This of course goes against the grain of most nutritional teaching, but is advocated by Natural Hygienists of which I have been one for over 30 years. Dr Edward Hooker Dewey MD wrote a book on the subject entitled: "The No Breakfast Plan and The Fasting Cure".

In answer to the second part, yes, I do eat seasonally: those items of food that are grown locally, and mostly but not entirely organic. I eat more fruit in the Summer months (lunchtime) and mostly raw salad vegetables (Dinner) in the evening, and winter vegetables such as cruciferous veggies (steamed) at that time.
I also combine my foods properly in the prevention of putrefaction and fermentation, and only when hungry: sometimes this means only one meal per day, but this depends on my level of physical activity when I eat more and/or less, depending on calorific expenditure, plus my appetite/hunger. I always listen to my body and what exactly it is telling me; this applies to my rest and or sleep and exercise as well.

Lunchtimes I will sometimes have what is known as the "Properly combined sandwich" in place of fruit: two slices of lightly-toasted home-baked wholewheat bread (which turns the starch into digestible sugars) with a smattering of Butter, between which I place slices of beef-tomato, cucumber, lettuce, (avoid iceberg lettuce as it has little if any nutritional value) and slices of ripe avocado.
Delicious.
