Are two days in a row that I go running for about one hour, up and down on the hills, and I don't feel fatigued.
I could run forever it seems.
If you have read Rich Roll's book, he says something similar.
Considering that I workout every morning and as a job, I do cleanings and sell solar panels door to door.
it's been about a week since I started following the eating guidelines specified in Fit For Life, by Harvey Diamond.
The levels of energy the simple guidelines from the book bring you are incredible.
Never had this much energy.
If anyone of you tried everything or simply thinks that you don't have the levels of energy you deserve to have, please read through.
Eating in this way, I just feel that I have the maximum levels of energy my body is capable of.
Below the main, simple guidelines from the book:
1- From the morning until noon, eat only fruit. Any kind of fruit. Any quantity.
Probably most of you know this concept already. Fruit is digested in the intestine. It goes through the stomach and directly to the intestine.
When we wake up, our body is totally restored. If we eat anything but fruit, we put it straight back to its most demanding job: digestion.
Fruit is digested in the intestines and takes between 30 and 45 minutes to be digested.
If possible, no coffee nor vitamins before noon. Only fruit.
2- Eat carbohydrates and proteins separately
Carbohydrates require an alkaline digestive juice to be broken down. While proteins, an acid one.
When acid and alkaline come into contact, they neutralize each other.
This means that your body takes much longer to digest those foods when eaten together:
- Time to digest proteins: ~4 hours
- Time to digest carbohydrates: ~3 hours
- Time to digest proteins+carbohydrates: ~8 hours
3- Timing
After fruit, 30/45 before eating anything else.
After any meal different from fruit, wait 3/4 hours before eating fruit.
After a carbs+protein meal, wait ~8 hours before eating fruit.
This because you want your stomach to be empty before eating any fruit.
This because fruit is digested in the intestines. And if you eat it while still digesting carbs or proteins in the stomach, the fruit will get stuck there (hence the known problems of when we eat fruit at full stomach).
4- 70% of any meal should be raw vegetables
Besides fruit, anything else you eat, couple it with a big salad.
Ideally, the salad should make up 70% of your total meal.
It's only a week, but I never felt like this before.
