A Bright Life Inspired by Dr. Raymond Peat
<span class=”atwho-inserted” contenteditable=”false” data-atwho-at-query=”@Loll”>@Lollipop</span>, I would try all of the fruit options but be leery of the chia and flax seeds not only due to the seed oil content but also both the Omega 3 and six levels.
@J.R.L I completely agree!! Like I said I would never touch seeds or flax. The only nut I eat is macadamia nuts and some pecans – I know Pecans are not the best BUT Love Love Love them since I was a small girl – lol. My Mom would have a bowl of the nuts still in their shell on our living room coffee table with a nut cracker in the bowl. I had to work hard for my pecan – now looking back, it was fun 🤩
I can relate <span class=”atwho-inserted” contenteditable=”false” data-atwho-at-query=”@Lol”>@Lollipop</span>, before moving into a more Peat inspired lifestyle nuts and seeds were an absolute staple for me, learning about PUFA and its health impacts certainly helped me to eliminate them from my diet.
While I would not advocate any other nut than coconut and macadamia nuts, I think if you needed selenium perhaps Brazil nuts might be okay only because of the high levels of selenium and you only need one to give your daily requirement for this nutrient.
@J.R.K I have been around and learning from Ray since 2015 when I began to shift my diet. I completely understand the full ramification of PUFA as it pertains to nuts. No need to explain. Ray also suggested Brazil nuts on several occasions. I have several charts that break down the fat content of nuts. I would be happy to share with you if you would like. There are some people on this platform that are new to Ray and need your support!
Today I ate more raw honey than I usually do when I have honey. There was just a bit left in the bottom of the jar, so I scraped it out and had that, too. Hours later, I noticed my heart beating strongly. Haven’t had that observation for a long time. Noticed it yesterday, too, though I had less honey then. So, honey for a raised metabolism!
I have seen a few posts on X about a honey diet. I basically passed them by. But it might be interesting to do a couple of days of no-fat Greek yogurt and honey.
