• It doesnt sound like your getting enough calories in my opinion, try upping your fruit intake, quick easy calories and are a good source of carbs for energy. Fruits are also rich in vitamin C which is the most needed nutrient by the adrenal glands.…

• Im not sure about the rye mate, but if its fermented foods your looking for an alternative which is grain free is water kefir or cultured vegetables. I prefer water kefir more palatable. Supporting your adrenal glands is a good idea if its food all…

• It could be that food allergies are contributing to your blood pressure issues. When the body comes in contact with an allergen it releases adrenaline which constricts the blood vessels increasing blood pressure.

• I am also the same regarding stimulants although not these days after taking alot of stimulants i now get extremely panicky after burning myself out. I had very bad adrenal fatigue until curing myself. Here is the basal body temp test for thyroid: …

• Try and not stress and worry i know its hard especially if your blood pressure is adrenaline induced. What is your doctor saying about all this? Have you had other blood work done i.e thyroid etc. Although it can be inaccurate, testing basal body t…

• You are very right in stopping in the raw cacao as it is a cardiac stimulant and raises blood pressure. Im no doctor, but what is your GP saying? There are multiple causes of high blood pressure, treatment would depend on the cause. In anycase and …

• Not to stress is the best way to deal with it. Some cheat once and feel so down with themselves that they end up just going back to a SAD diet after months of eating healthy. Chalk it down to a cheat and like i say dont stress about it, cheating ha…

• Although eating healthy and raw etc is good, green smoothies, raw foods, juicing etc. There is nothing more then anecdotal stories of cures so putting all your coins in one pot is probably a bad idea when it comes to such an advanced cancer. Ive he…

• Nice one on the benefit, i take it you mean your sweating less. If so probably likely from the extra nutrition supporting the adrenal glands and nervous system and/or eliminating dietary allergens. Weak adrenal glands and food allergies can cause ex…

• Some actually find raw foods harder to digest than cooked foods and often the culprit is low stomach acid so yeah good idea to check. Bloating, gas, heartburn type feeling, burping are the common symptoms of low stomach acid.  

  in Bloating after a 7-day detox diet Comment by powerlifer
• Bloating is a common symptom of low stomach acid, you could try a little raw apple cider vinegar mid meal or some bitter herbs on the back of the tongue.

• Phyto-estrogens are ok, they are weak mimicking estrogenic compounds which lock up the receptor sites so more stronger estrogens aren't absorbed. Id personally give steroidal creams a miss, a good natural alternative to increase progesterone is Vit…

• What about chia seeds? They are rich in omega-3's, protein, and other vitamins and minerals. They also aren't goitrogenic either like flax is.
