-
You still feel hungry even though you are physically full
-
You develop a sweet craving
-
Your energy level drops
-
You feel hyper, nervous, angry or irritable
-
You feel depressed
Any of the above feelings might be due to an improper combination of
proteins, fats and carbohydrates at our last meal. You might be eating
the perfect foods for your metabolism, but having too much of one type
of food in place of another. This can easily produce the symptoms listed
above.
Everyone Has Their Own Unique Metabolic Type
Many of the patients that come to our clinic are eating very
high-quality nutritious foods, yet they are still quite sick. They
haven't touched sugar or junk food in ages and still suffer with many
health problems. There are a number of reasons for this, but one of the
major reasons is related to the fact that they are not eating the
appropriate foods for their metabolic type.
A Simple Fuel Analogy
Just as gas is fuel for our vehicles, food is fuel for our bodies!.
Imagine for a moment that you have pulled into an exclusive gas station
that has secured the highest quality gasoline from one of the world's
leading refineries … gas that has been screened carefully and shown to
be free of anything that would possibly harm your car's engine.
It would seem reasonable to believe that your car is going to thrive on
that high-quality gas once you put it in your tank. However, what if you
were driving a diesel-powered vehicle? If that were the case, in a few
minutes your car would stop running, and you would have a very expensive
repair job ahead of you.
The fact that the car stopped running does not imply that the gas wasn't
any good or that your car was defective. It was simply the wrong type of
fuel for your car. Like your car, your body was designed for a certain
correct type of fuel … that is, a certain correct blend of the right
food types. The further you deviate from this ideal, the more health
problems are likely. That is why some of the sickest people I see in my
practice are those who are "designed" to be eating high-proteins foods
but have decided to be vegetarians. Conversely, carbohydrate
types who choose to eat high amounts of meats also don't
do very well.
