RE: Raw Eggs – The Neural Powerfood

in #steem-health7 years ago

My personal experience as a (mostly) vegan is that the occasional egg doesn't seem to mess with my body at all. In fact, I often feel myself being naturally drawn towards them. But one thing is for sure... have too many and my body tells me to not have any more for at least a few days.

Listening to the reaction of our body is something which seems to have been lost in this world of information... yet clearly is the most powerful tool in learning what works and what doesn't.

Thanks for sharing. Upped 100% & resteemed.

Sam, you're "craving" for eggs is likely your body's natural craving for protein. I have the same issue with meat, in the sense that if I eat only eggs as my "meat" I find my body craving meat (usually bird (ex. chicken, quail, duck, etc.) ONCE per week, in order to feel like I have proper energy. I also agree with you that "overdoing" the eggs can become difficult as well. I don't know what's up with me and food, but I just find myself gravitating towards increased liquid nutrition (ex. tea, natural juices, water, etc) as I get older. I know, it may be psychological (like an eating disorder), but that's just the way it is there days. In this chaotic world I just feel like people are STUFFING themselves full of so much (ex. food, drugs, info) that my body is rebelling against food. As long as my weight is okay, though, I don't think it is an issue. With the primarily egg and fruits/veggie/liquid diet my skin and hair are in good condition, and I don't constantly feel bloated and weighed down. Just my experience...
