Re: weight loss and juicing

Maybe I'm tired sometimes right after eating sugar and fat because my body just needs more sleep to heal and is asking for it after it's basic need for food had been met. It's pretty common to be tired after a big meal. So if i eat 3 bananas and 2 T. olive oil with raisins on top, I can feel drowsy ...

Re: Emeira's Diary

I think that candida gets out of hand when the body's immunity is compromised. When the thyroid is low, immunity is low and viruses and bacteria have a field day. A low thyroid is also often responsible for missing menstruation. When i eat well, my temperature goes up, which means the thyroid is fun...

Re: weight loss and juicing

I was also going to say, measuring your weight day to day will not tell you much, because these weight fluctuations are mostly due to varying amounts of water in your body as well as food in the gut (e.g. 700kcal more is generally more food by weight). Weekly or monthly might be better, but in my o...

Re: weight loss and juicing

What you should strive for is a level that you feel very comfortable with, physically. Too high will make you feel nauseous. Too low will make you feel down. The right level will make you feel energetic and happy, without feeling jumpy. When your energy level goes down, you need to replenish your b...

Re: weight loss and juicing

I got my glucose measuring device today and tested at 108. What is the ideal number range to strive for on the wai diet? and what number is best for weight loss? I understand that this wasn't a fasting blood glucose test which should be 80-100 in a healthy person. I'll test that tomorrow morning. An...
