You need to eat alkalising foods!
-
Okay guys so if you eat primal and get the best quality foods but still feel like something is missing, you might be overly acidic.
I got sick for nearly 2 months and I felt something wasn't right about my diet. But I kinda went against my senses not to eat some foods (fruits) bc someone told me it wasn't good and I need to be in ketosis. I got a yeast infection on my tongue and it felt like it was eating the flesh of my palate. My tonsils hurt really bad and swallowing was horribly painful. I got called selfish by my family and my neighbours bc I didn't wanna take antibiotics. I didn't take those obviously but I unfortunately did take a ton of painkillers (paracetamol and ibuprofen) during that time bc I believed it was a necessary trade of bc I could barely eat bc of how painful it was and if I wanted to survive I needed to eat a lot. I also had barely any appetite but I thought it was bc of the association of eating with pain in my head.
Luckily I am better now I don't have any pain anymore but still white tongue, my breath smells, body scent is funky, I have dandruff which is also yeast overgrowth. I still have barely any appetite for animal foods (good quality) and I have to force myself to eat raw butter to eat enough energy a day.
I felt something was severely off and today I found out my body is overly acidic. my body rejects animals foods bc it is highly acidifying and I crave fruit mostly. I am focusing on eating a ton of alkalising foods.
For all the veg juice guys I was skeptical but you were right, kinda. There is alkalising foods that don't taste disgusting. I have natural spring water which is supposed to be slightly alkalising from the spring I get it at and I do crave it a lot. I googled what fruits have the lowest PRAL value (very alkaline) and I bought bananas, yellow kiwis, watermelon, the melon with orange flesh, apricots, mangos. And lastly dried dates which are supposedly HIGHLY alkalising. I ate dates with raw butter (butter has pretty much neutral effect) and immediately felt that was what I needed. I've been forcing myself to eat and it just tasted like what I needed. I immediately got my craving for raw milk back. hopefully my appetite returns to normal so I can enjoy and crave meat again and my symptoms go away. btw before this diet I ate a lot of meat but also a loot of vegetables which aren't optimal obviously but they are alkalising. So in the beginning my body went from too alkaline to optimal and I felt amazing everyday but slowly I enjoyed the food less and felt worse until I got sick. Now I went too far in the acidic direction.TLDR If you eat primal you eat a lot of animal foods I suggest you eat dried dates (with butter) or fresh fruits that are alkalising and they will increase your appetite and balance out the metabolic acidity of animal foods. Same purpose as veg juice but without tasting like shit.
If you don't eat any fruits you might run into some problems sooner or later.
I know this is all based on imaginary concepts but they aren't necessarily true but to my own senses I felt something missing and being repulsed by the foods that are acidifying according to this concept and eating the so called alkalising foods feels like what i've been missing. -
Btw my gf genuinely left me bc I was sick for so long

i am finding myself in a similar struggle, though im sipping raw milk without satiatjon and hydrating myself with fruits, sometimes it happend that i just dont want to eat meat at all, like now, even though im so hungry.
my tongue is also white often and my dad told me my breath stinks

@donaldrawtrump Yeah man I just saw your other post. I think you have the same issue. Vegetable juices are alkalising but they taste like shit so you shouldn't force yourself to eat anything. Go to the store get dates and eat them and tell me if your appetite returns and if it felt "right". Do you restrict yourself from eating foods you crave sometimes like fruits bc you believe they are bad for some reason?
-
avocado are very alkaline and can help neutralize acid from meats. so eating with white meat including lemon juice could help balance.
@primordialeats they are yeah it makes sense some primals eat them with their meat dishes but I think the plant fats aren't optimal tbh. White meat is still acidifying

@Liverlover i eat whatever i want as long as itd raw animal or fruits, i find eating avocado with meat causes me bloating and aches sometimes.
did you try lemon too?
-
Yeah okay. I haven't tried lemon, but I have eaten it in the past of course and it's not really that enjoyable to your senses is it. it's also not that alkalising according to the pral scale. It could be that you're body doesn't know the foods that it needs so you can't crave it. Same as raw meat and organs when I ate a normie diet you can't crave it bc you didn't try it. the melons and dates are enjoyable and should balance the body out.
-
@elliott85 Yeah but what do you think of eating alkalising fruits that are actually enjoyable unlike veg juice.

@Liverlover yeah i dont want raw meat nor slop, kinda just straving, but ill get a few eggs, still down for some
-
@elliott85 why is the juice bitter then, and how did goatis go ten years without?

@Liverlover even cats and dogs eat grass, maybe aajonus was right and not just a mossad agent

@donaldrawtrump Yeah that's exactly like I feel. I'll eat something when I get really hungry but I don't really feel satisfied.

@Liverlover buy terramin clay, put it in the vegetable juice overnight to absorb the pesticides which make it taste bitter.
fruits aren't enough, you need the hardcore juice
-
@elliott85 you tried dates?
@Liverlover what kind of dates do you buy?
