Ep 25 - Working Past It - What to eat and when not to

In this episode I discuss what I have learned about eating when you are trying to recover from a chronic neurological injury like TMS injury, ECT, Psychiatric drugs, CFS and others. We spend every day eating which makes understanding what we eat and how we eat an essential aspect of our improvement. I discuss how to decide what to eat when eating with some basic simple principles that I have found far more effective and powerful than all the specificity of diets out there. Then I move on to discuss different aspects and methods of fasting and some of what should be considered.Finally I discuss in short but decisive measure that we must change the way we think about food for these methods to be effective. Fasting has been shown to shorten and eliminate withdrawal syndromes.Prolonged water fasting is not recommended if you are on most medications. It may be quite effective to withdraw from a drug and then fast after to eliminate the impact of any withdrawal syndromes. There is not much literature available on this method.
