Most all of us take our body for granted. It struggles and we just keep eating what we want even though it sends us signals, quiet and loud, not to. I say this as I drink a cup of Jasmine tea which is making me nauseous. It only does this sometimes so I keep drinking it. It has even made me puke once, at a child's birthday party. Embarrassing! Why do I keep drinking it? I love it. I wasn't reactive on the Array 10 (some excuse). The only other thing I really drink is water. How boring! But clearly, CLEARLY I shouldn't be drinking jasmine tea. My body has been kindly asking me not to and I'm a bitch and ignore it.
I've been thinking a lot about this today as I have been so itchy and yucky feeling in general, knowing I have flagellated bacteria burrowing into the lining of my digestive tract does not help (have you SEEN the pictures???). I need to listen to my body. I'm not digesting protein well (haven't for eons and duh keep eating it) and I can't really chew it properly in the first place so I need to work on decreasing my consumption while increasing amino acid support insert *gag* here. I need to be eating more soups, green juices and I need to try smoothies again with perhaps ginger or cinnamon to make them "hotter". In Ayurveda they said cold foods dampen digestive fire and I really don't need my ability to digest dampened at all. I've been afraid to try hemp but I've got to do better about giving my body an opportunity to heal.
No plan yet but you can be sure it will include drinking cabbage juice. Which Katie swears is delicious. Okay, not so much. I've got several digestive health books on request at the library. I've perused them all before but need to take another look. Hoping to formulate a plan and start slowing incorporating some things over the next week. I probably should do it before my weird outrageously expensive African tea gets here. That supposedly can cause some mucho bad reactions for a short period of time. I am just so done. I was contemplating going elemental and just climbing into bed. Instead I will get my butt outside and walk the dogs. Just keep moving forward!
