Pass the Awesome! An experiment about life and the way it moves me |
Did he just throw his drink at the wall? Oh my god! He he just smeared food all over his own face!
Ignore him... just keep walking and he will ignore you too. No, not that type of food. I'm talking about when the food you eat that bites you back. Dietary no-no's. It seems I have a number of them. Never used to have any problems. Then adolescence hit. Along with that came rather extreme (for a guy) cramps. I never found out why this happened.... Then came college, and the high fat diet that goes with college food. My diggestive system flipped on it's head. It's never recovered... This is why I am almost always growing some kind of probiotic. Gotta keep trying to fix the problem A list of dietary offenders based off of experience Chocolate (anything but small quantities) Uncooked vegetables (anything but small quantities) Fibrous foods (anything but tiny (?) quantities) Overly rich foods= too fatty Moderate to heavily spiced foods Avocadoes ( anything but small quantities)= fat, and fiber Nuts (anything but small quantities)= fat, and fiber beans (anything but small quantities)- raw bean sprouts would likely kill me.... Oats (anything but small quantities)= fiber content Whole grains (anything but small quantities)- my long-duration sourdough experiment will test if fermenting grains for a long time will allow me to eat them Questionables Overly acidic foods meats- it seems my system isn't strong enough to handle them properly Known non-offenders White rice- I have eaten close to 60 pounds of it since the start of the year eggs water- whoot!!!.......... Green bananas Dairy- effects undetermined at this time I am a non-picky vegetarian. I don't like the idea of eating a full cow a year, or eating 30 horribly treated and depressed chickens a year either. I would feel much better about eating animals that led a full natural life- like deer, natural caught fish, and free range chickens. If someone cooks meat in a meal and offers it too me, I will eat it. They went through all that effort to cook it for me, it is hard not to honor that. So My diet has become a balancing act- constantly trying not to piss off my digestive tract while desperately trying to keep myself from becoming malnourished. In summary, it seems my entire digestive tract simple doesn't try very hard. I don't think I have any food allergies either. Most people have problems with constipation. There are a crap ton of ways to combat that... but what about the opposite? So my experiments with probiotics may have started out of boredom and curiosity, but they are now an attempt to heal myself. It has been a long time comin'.

I am so so in a similar boat as this!! Sorry I made you eat so much weird food for so long. Definitely wasn't trying to kill you.
