This morning I woke up with the WORST head ache! At first I thought I ate too much yesterday after breaking my fast. But after more careful examination, I realized that the two tiny little pieces of chicken that I ate last night were likely full of MSG.
Just that small dose of MSG kicked my ass! I couldn't believe it. Imagine what would have happened if I had eaten an entire meal full of MSG? It would have probably killed me.
There are a few things that I learned from this fast. Most notable in relation to this post is just how clean by body has gotten. If even such a small dose of something could leave me feeling that bad, I must be pretty sensitive to it. It makes me wonder how anyone can survive at all eating large portions of that food. But they do. My buddy ate two plates of it right in front of me while I nibbled on my edamame. And he's fine.
Today I noticed that I really don't need to eat that much. I am guessing that as my body clears and repairs, it is becoming more able to extract more nutrients from less food. As a result, I am less hungry and more quickly satisfied.
Today's food:
Meal 1: 3 Peaches
Meal 2: 4 Bananas
Meal 3: Handful of cashews (raw)
Meal 4: 3 Kiwis
