Re: The only way of eating that works for me
I am glad this forum is part of curszone - and thank you for your post, sharing your experience. I started Atkins, strictly Aug 2, but by mid Sept, I was very sick - not due to Atkins I think, but Candida, which I fed through eating too much cheese. I was getting no help at another site, that keeps throwing out people's questions, and does not consider any modifications to Atkins whatsoever.
I had a serious 5 weeks of brain fog - to where I could nto function (I posted about thsi on the
Candida Forum ) and I had to up carbs and calories - I had been below 20 for some time, and always below 1800 calories - I was sleeping well, felt more energy, but became so foggy mentally, that my Doc said up the carbs and calories. I started a bowled cleanse, and fighting Candida, after coming to curezone.
In the process of this cleanse (P&B shaked, upping water tremendously) , I also started on
Black-Walnut , garlic Bit B complex (also folic acid) and GSE. I had already been taking L-Carnitine and CQ10 - it was when I took CQ10 300 mgs for 4 days in a row, that my foggy head cleared up!
I am sticking to upping carbs - more veggies and a bit morefruit - much fiber (flax seed oil, and flax cereal) and want to be able to start induction after the holidays (I will be returning home then, and can be strict!)
I am so glad this forum is here - as I need a place to come to and learn more - from people who are examining the whole self - not just eating a certain way and not listening to the bodies, no matter how loudly their bodies are telling them to attend to diet and other needs.
I know that I will continue with the bowel cleanse, and follow with a
parasite cleanse, then liver cleanse - then I do so want to start on Atkins Induction again - I mean, I am a convert! Have made the behavioral changes. . .
I will be reading all your posts with much interest.
