@pittybitty said in Tired, Low temp, but normal pulse - hypothyroid?:
Every food has its little caveats and you have to figure out yourself which are problematic for your individual physiology and which aren't.
I agree with your statement and the detailed explanation.
1° "The fruit or fruit juice is because it is very easy to digest in comparison to other foods that include fats or starches".
=> Right. Sugar from fruit or honey is easier than starches to digest and assimilate. But it doesn't change the problem for glycemia (fruit juice vs fruit with fiber). I'd limit fruit juice.
By the way, I let most of my fruit 12' in a bicarbonated water, at pH 8.5 to get rid of 95 % pesticides. Not always the choice when buying fruits here.
(I've got a study if interested) (Or I could write a post)
2° fat is optimal for metabolism functions at 20 % minimum. Targeting 30 % is what I do, provided we don't need oil or nuts to reach this target.
2 exceptions: coconut oil and olive oil. Olive oil only used with my greens.
One exception for me, not as a general rule:
Macadamia nuts have no PUFA. I often eat once a day 5-8 nuts.
Pecans nuts, not advised but I limit the take to 6 half nuts when I need fat to balance my breakfast when I eat "Jordan simply crunchy" (oat with honey).
50 g oat
a big handful of thin shredded coconut slices
6 half pecan nuts
sometimes a tbsp chocolate buns.
hazelnut milk or cow milk 240 ml.
NB: This meal brings 1.5 g PUFA (omega-6). I target 6 g maxi PUFA for the whole day (4.5 g omega-6 and 1.5 g omega-3) on my Cronometer log.
Pecans nuts are not a good choice, as for most nuts, but there are very reach in antioxidant. Thus I limit the frequency. Nobody is perfect
