Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Dave, try it and see whether it agrees with you or not. also, don't know if you can cook in your current lodgings or if you are eating out. Pastured organic eggs have more nutrition than store bought, even so called " free range " which only means they live inside and have a little hole they can exit to get outside in a small yard where they tend not to go because they keep them inside in early part of life, then open the door and they are already habituated to staying inside. Same for the chickens. What about vegetables, salads, dark green leafy veges, yellow veges.... sue >I've read conflicting reports on whether fruit its ok to eat or not.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I would limit the fruit for awhile, no fruit juices, no overipe fruit, but maybe a green apple, coconut, and some dark berries would be good, pomagrade<spelling juice. just my opinon. honey to replace sugar, green and black tea's. I thank some oranges are ok but look for bad spots. greens and garlic,onions. > > I've read conflicting reports on whether fruit its ok to eat or not.

What I would like to do is eat maybe an orange or fuji apple (my fav) for a late night snack but don't want to take any unnecessary chances. > > Thanks > > Dave > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Excellent advice Barb and I was eating a couple of pieces of fruit in the evening as a snack but realized that I could be making my condition worst so I limited myself to 2 oranges during the course of the day only after meals. Yesterday after I ate my second orange I had a negative reaction so the best thing to do is cut them out of my diet > > It makes a difference if it is whole fruit or fruit juice. Fruit juice is more concentrated fructose. The fiber in whole fruit slows down digestion so your sugar shouldn't spike as fast. Also fat taken with fruit or fruit eaten with a meal slows down disgestion. Anything that slows digestion of fruit or sugary things, aides in keeping blood sugar levels low, so fruit eaten alone will spike blood sugar more than fruit eaten at the end of a meal or eaten with something fatty like some cheese. I eat fruit. I think it's too important to leave out. Just eat less of things you are concerned about carbohydrate wise. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Looks like a good plan to me. From all that I have read to eat fruits with vegetables can cause fermentation. So eating it by its self is a great idea. When I was at a health institute that is what we were encouraged to it at night if we were hungry- a piece of fruit. cathy > > > > I've read conflicting reports on whether fruit its ok to eat or not.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I think fruits can also ferment in the stomach so moderation might be important. I dont know but I think the minute some fruits ripen the sugar content goes up and the mold starts to grow and they start the fermentation process all by theirselfs. I dont think they should be left setting out of the ice box either. dark berries are good antioxidants. sour fruits are good but they sometimes make my stomach hurt. > > Looks like a good plan to me.
