Seejay, thanks. Your description of "browns" makes complete sense to me. I can envision the things you mentioned as part of my plan (with modification if any really DON'T work for me) but the grains??? Not so much.

Nancy, in this particular plan the insulin spike from the potato is desired - at a very specific time of day. That spike supposedly leads to a series of events resulting ultimately in tryptophan crossing the blood-brain barrier and a subsequent increase in seratonin. That is my understanding anyway - being completely new to all this. (others, please correct me if I'm wrong in my understanding!)

Reading, reading reading. And journaling.
