Default Crunchy or not?

Morning girls!

More on SEC.
There is a big difference between glutamate nuts and natural nuts.
Ever had a cheese ball rolled in nuts with fresh veggies?
If i sprinkle some nuts on a salad in a RM or the past days have had some at the end of a CM so far
I've been ok. Apart from that, it is very much like CAD/CALP without the glutamates and AS.
After all it is the Hellers who have done research, using themselves and many testpilots over the years.

There is advice on crunchy foods and it's benefits for some f.i. people who eat fast. Even crunchy, chewy and frozen candy. I eat very fast.

The SEC does say you can eat your RM/called an "Alternative meal" in the book
later durring the day as lunch or dinner ... but they encourage you to at least try. I was scared and reluctant first to move the RM to breakfast. So here I am trying the BBB (big balancing breakfast) for a couple of days.

Adrenaline, cortisol, low dopamine, low oxytocin ... her we go.
In the Stress Eating Cure
there is some real cool advice for stress-sensitive people chapter 32 f i there is this advice to lower
adrenaline - to eat cream/yoghurt with spicy foods to not aggravate the body to produce more adrenaline.
Chapter 3 is where it started to be interesting IMHO, worth the purchase.
Cortsol has been a big problem for me, causing stress/stress causing cortisol -
binding water, fat ... and more. I am very sensitive to too spicy food. Lots
of "yeah, that's right" moments and many great recipes.

Page 184 "Fatty foods release far more oxytocin than most other foods."
No wonder I crave and LOVE cream and butter ... I have needed to have it every day and how I feel from eating fat. Not overdoing though.

It is just an experiment, quite safe IMO since I am used to CALP and CAD
and I am enjoying it I tell you that.

Picked up some raw milk, mackerel and real glutamate chicken LOL.
Just like the books states - it's impossible to avoid all msg glutamates
but wise to limit them as much as possible.

Wish you all a great start of the week

Easy does it.
