mentioned he was having a late breakfast that took him to supper.

I've somewhat started the same on the days I'm not working, can cook

and get the same result. When I work, which is more physical than

home, what I eat late breakfast is more of a snack, doesn't take me to

supper and I need a snack about 3PM. Home isn't a big breakfast but

more than workdays as work right after jostles the digestion even if

it's the easier to digest for me paleo diet.

Don't understand the paleo eating woman needing to constantly snack.

When I was doing the above SAD I was bogged down in constant digesting

and no energy from constant snacking or the hypoglycemic many small

meal model. Paleo likely is not be for her if it's not satiating her

for hours and giving her energy.

Thanks for your time on leptin. Makes sense!

Though snacking does directly interfere with the digestion of main meals,

that's far from the extent of the harm it causes. It fundamentally

disrupts the body's entire hormonal system, pushing the snacker into

insulin and leptin resistance, excess fat accumulation, etc. etc. etc. Of

course, the composition of the snack helps determine the size of its harm,

but needing to snack at all is a sign of a problem and I'd guess almost

always means that the snacker needs to eat more saturated fat and fewer

carbs, particularly refined carbs, at main meals.

I'm not sure there's much of an advantage to eating two meals instead of

three except possibly for enhancing fat loss if you need to (as I do) but a

snack at 3pm is probably a bit late, unless you eat late and go to sleep

late, which I'm guessing you don't.

Well, there's paleo and then there's paleo, just like there's Atkins and

Atkins, if you know what I mean. Without knowing what she's actually

eating (and possibly what other issues she's facing) we don't know what's

really going on.

You're welcome! It's actually more complicated than I made it sound, since

leptin apparently ties into so many different hormonal systems, but that's

definitely the basics of it.

Wheather its two instead of three the one or two earlier are small,

almost snacks. Fried apple and sausage with cinnamon is usual

breakfast. Exploring apple's galactose and pectin in the small

intestine. Works better than avocado and salami for work breakfast.

Don't really need fat loss. 3 PM snack is 2 hours before supper and

it's usually a few spoonfuls of nut butter. Bed 10-11.

Do know what you mean. I suspect canola oil ok on some paleo diets

could throw off a relatively healthy otherwise individual.

Will have to read it.

I did that food combining thing for a while, but I am not convinced that

fruits don't combine well with other foods. The Persians often cooked fruits

with

meats. Being cooked, fruits are possibly being rendered less nutritious.

OH, you haven't tried coleslaw with chicken and apples or grapes, or a tossed

salad with grilled pork sirloin and peaches. I use kefir cheese in the salad

dressing with a light oil, coconut or grape seed. Maybe mayo and sour cream

if you don't have kefir - it's real good with fruit and salads.

Oh, what do you all have to say about grape seed oil? I wonder about it.

Seems like a strange thing to make oil with to me. You can change the subject

line.

A fresh glass of fruit or vegetable juice.Seriously, if you followed the above four suggestions over the course of a year, you would not only satisfy your snack cravings, but you would also lose at least ten pounds... and probably more than that.Whoa, that's great, eh?

Nuts are high in arginine (not sure about peanuts). I think viral people want to

avoid high-arginine diets and have (or supplement) diets higher in lysine.
