I need a good idea for breakfast for a exerciser. ( i seem to not feel so good )

[Guest guest]

That's funny yogabud how different people are. I was soaking mixed rolled

grains overnight then warming them in the morning and eating them with raw

cream and a little maple syrup. I thought this was an excellent breakfast

(still do) but it was making me feel like crap. So i switched to soft-boiled

eggs over a rye cracker with lots of raw butter and feel wonderful! So maybe

if you try my old breakfast idea you will feel good.

i seem to feel not so good after having eggs and butter.

so im thinking my body isnt liking the eggs too much

[Guest guest]

Are you eating the eggs cooked or raw? I have trouble with cooked eggs.

For breakfast I often eat, a smoothie: One raw egg, some raw cream and

frozen raspberries in a mini processor. sort of a soft raspberry ice cream.

Otherwise I eat leftovers from dinner.

haah Elaine thats funny.

well my feeling is just that. crap about 20 mins or so after

breakfast. I boil teh eggs adn have also eaten them raw ( with the

yolk and the white ) I guess it could be the butter to that is the

cause, but never thought of that.

i always tend to feel good after dinner. Sometimes my lunch has same

duldrum effect. BUt last few days not eating lamb chump chops and

changing it instead ofr chicken last 2 days i havetn got the

afternoon yuk feeling. If i can just avoid this in the mornings now

then i will be set

a) fruit smoothie with raw egg, raw milk or cream, salt, chocolate

chips (not really ;-) , Coconut oil and ocassionally some other item

is a great breakfast.

what does " feel like crap " actually feel like?

tired, hard to focus and if you try any form of exercise you just

cant contract the muscle like you should. loos of coordination,

sharpness = feel like crap

I don't know if we've discussed this before or not. What you

are discribing is not uncommon, its usually present with certain

folks on low carb diets. Essentially the protein elicits an insulin

response of sorts. Realize that insulin not only moves sugar from

the blood it also moves amino acids which is why insulin is present

even without carb consumption. The problem is when you wake in the

morning your blood sugar is already low from the nights fasting. You

then consume protein which places some insulin in cirulation which

results in further lowering of blood sugar, this essentially induces

a hypoglycemic state which correlates with your description. The way

to offset this is to eat some carbohydrate with your egg bfast

preferrably some fruit (ie. berries, cherries) this will provide a

small amount of sugar for the blood and in turn will not result in

the hypoglycemic state and in addition the fructose will have a small

inhibitory effect on the insulin response. I hope this helps.

thanks dr mike. i will definatly try this.

the carb intake has totally slipped my mind as a possible cause.

if i cant get berries ( i refuse to buy from supermarket as they are

like $6 for 250 grams ) but once a week i can get to the organic

food fare and pick upa punnet for $3

what would be some other form of food would you suggest?

for when the berries are unnatainable.

i was thinking of sourdough bread but i have not amde it before and

still need to collect the ingredients. ( i havent been eating bread

for a good 10 months now( store bought garbage ) so not sure how i

would take to it. heh

Generally Frozen berries are more reasonable, even organic froze in a

bit cheaper. That will be better than bread. I would look to use

fruit on this one instead of grains. If the berries fresh or frozen

are too expensive just use another fruit you find more affordable

with the exception of bananna, date, fig. We more often than not

will use frozen berries for smoothies.

coconut oil for a supper )
