Hi,
I have been keeping notes for a month or so now re diet and symptoms.
Many times there have been symptoms, which in the past I might have
associated with a type of food....
But now I wonder...
A few days ago the weather turned black and rainy for a few days.
Very humid. I got sinus symptoms... and felt terrible. Like my neck and
shoulders needed a good massage - spaced out - vision disturbance.
And then I think the symptoms motivated me to eat californian dates. They
tasted too sweet. I then got symptoms of 'craziness' like a drug addict...
had to lay down and went 'unconscious' for an hour before dinner... used to
happen sometimes after eating bread...
The next morning still hot, wet and humid... felt terrible so put a radiator
heater on ... sat close to it and did some yoga... then put the heater in my
office... a couple of hours later the symptoms had lessened by 80%....
So - if there are background factors such as weather, outgassing from
plastics, pollution, stress, etc .... then it becomes challenging to pin
point and accurately blame a food item, don't you think?
The impossible challenge seems to be how to remove all of the factors from
one's lifestyle... and then test for the negatives...
Maybe I should move to a location that is hot and dry, and then retest the
food groups?
