Is this peaty enough?

PeaterDinklage

I eat pretty much within the general guidelines of Dr. Peat, but want to ask the more veteran peaters what changes I can make to have less stress and specifically reduce anxiety.
Breakfast:
3 Eggs
100 gr. cottage Cheese
2 slices (80gr) high quality fine sourdough bread
10gr jam and 10gr butter on the bread
Maybe some Brie cheese

Coffee:
2 or 3 after breakfast with milk and honey

Lunch:
Potato/rice/sweet potato + haddock (High quality)/ground beef
Maybe orange juice sometimes

Dinner:
Similar to lunch, potatoes + meat
With large glass no fat milk

Calories are roughly 2700 a day and work out 3x a week weight lifting.

Supps:
3000iu Vit-D
ZMA Supplement for gym recovery
Chamomile tea with hydrolysed collagen before bed
Recently added lamb liver roughly once a week and eat the carrot salad roughly 5x a week

Any help at all would appreciated. Quite new to this sphere and would greatly appreciate any guidance or help/changes to this diet/plan.

@PeaterDinklage This looks pretty good but I think you may be consuming too much starch. I know this varies from person to person but a peat inspired diet is generally pretty low in starch. As it can slow gut transit and increase endotoxin etc. Try to reduce to one serving of starch per day, maybe potatoes with lunch and replace those calories with citrus fruit, OJ, and/or more milk. More milk is generally good, Peat generally recommended around 2qt a day, this will keep stress hormones down. I don’t really trust sourdough unless I bake it myself and even then it’s hard to find good flour that’s not fortified with junk, might want to avoid that. For cheese you might try a parmigiano reggiano as it’s made the traditional way with animal rennet rather than GMO enzymes. Little changes like these can add up. Also I think supplementing zinc long term can lead to issues with copper levels, I’d be careful with that. Best to get zinc from oysters if you can as it’s balanced with other minerals.

Something as simple as eating less starch and drinking more milk/OJ could start to turn things around for you. Best of luck.

@PrinceMyshkin Thank you for your reply, yes I had that starch suspicion and will definitely try to make some more changes. Didn’t know about the zinc supplementation but will look into that.
