Leo,
yes.. I understand that your advices are not medical opinions! I’d say that the best thing about them, at least when one considers the ways of ocidental medicine nowadays!
I’m trying to find some professional TCM practitioner here. There are some acupuncturists… but I really would prefer someone specialized in diet matters in TCM.
Anyway, I’ll keep researching on the subject to get more useful information.
Who would suspect that skipping salad and fruit would actually do me some good?
I don’t know what happened to our culture. It is very common to find the idea that “everything natural is good”.
I read some stories about people getting into serious trouble due to these “raw food diets”.
By the way.. I was a vegetarian for almost 10 years, but not anymore.
I guess I did some stupid things concearning diet, if I didn’t get much healthier I’m absolutely sure that I got much wiser…
I must say… I’m feeling better today, even though I know there’s much to improve. I got back home from the university and I was able to sit and study for about 2 hours.
Maybe this means nothing to some people. To me it is a great accomplishment. I’m feeling more alive, although I still feel like my energy levels are quite low. Even if I feel like resting a bit, it is more unlikely that I will sleep.
I think your remark on not taking things for granted is so important and true.
Such a ‘simple’ thing as staying awake… most people won’t even think about it. But not being able to do it was ruining my life in many ways.
Oh… It’s nice to know about ginger! I like it a lot! Can I consume it by itself (chewing or making tea of it) or it would be better to consume it in combination with other food?
Considering what you said and something I saw on the internet I created a recipe, please tell me if you think it is ok: I did a kind of juice with apples and ginger (I processed everything in the blender) and then I cooked it. So it is not juice nor tea, it may be called an apple-ginger soup if you wish.
I don’t remember the TCM classification on the nature of apples right now, but when I saw it i thought I should have some, but I was not sure if I should eat it raw…
Thanks so much for your help!
