When I read yesterday that he felt a few hours of euphoria I took that to mean that he is loosing balance in brain neurotransmitters as a result of not enough protein and good fats in the diet. Euphoria or depression mean an imbalance in the brain , too much serotonin and not enough dopamine in this case. Insulin raises serotonin plus he is not getting necessary amino acids such as L-Tyrosine which would increase brain dopamine. |
Where is your information coming from? I just would like to know how a food that is lower GI than most of what the US eats for breakfast is going to overwork one's system. Low Gi means low impact on blood sugar. Also it takes a lot more work to convert protein or fat into blood sugar, so I would say he's giving his system a break.
