Re: Paleo diet & fatigue

Yes - I was on the SAD diet - I have never heard it referred to that, but how true! I mostly eliminated things when doing paleo (grains, legumes, dairy) and ate mostly carrots, celery, spring mix/spinach salads, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, grain fed beef, free range chicken/eggs, nuts, seeds and fruit... honestly, probably more fruit than veggies - not terribly adventuresome into unknown vegetables. And I'd been taking 2 Tbs flax meal with coconut oil per day along with magnesium citrate.

I hadn't stopped drinking green tea. I do drink water throughout the day as well as almond milk.

I eat coconut oil daily - I will try that on my scalp. Thx for the advice!

For the time being, I will eat paleo 85% of the day but I feel so much better having had the oatbran yesterday - I think I will stick with that for bkfst... but I will steer clear of the SAD. Tweet
