What does it mean if I’m from Australia???? Tell me so we both know! I am
very glad to see that our endearingly, nutty, secreting, crazy, amusing,
rutabega eating, sea-weed gulping, herb tripping, adorable Axel is back to
his old self!
BTW, to answer your question - I was thinking you’re crazy - in the fun way!

Sounds … interesting. What else do you usually put in your live nut
smoothies?
I was thinking about this the other day. I should be able to decrease
my hypoglycemic preventive measures regularly by adhering to the type
O - low carb diet.
Sometimes I don’t get to eating dinner until close to 8pm. I try hard
to have dinner (my last meal) between 5:30 - 6, but work and life can
interfere. Next thing I know, it’s 8 o’clock and I’m fixing dinner.
I think about skipping it and recall those days, not long past, of 2am
wakings and choose to err on the side of eating.
Only because it’s neutral. I’m trying to stick with HB foods,
although I do occasionally partake of the big bird.
Yes, mostly because I’m not eating fruits or grains - other than the
oatmeal and that was solo.
On occasion, but since I don’t have difficulty falling asleep, only

staying asleep, it’s never been a priority.
I recently read that chickpeas were good for this as well.

You must have missed a few posts. I’ve given up oatmeal for protein
and fat before bed. Final results won’t be in until I’m back to a
normal schedule. I’ve been on vacation since I began this program and
my sleep schedule has been somewhat unpredictable as a result. I’m
opting for salmon or walnuts before bed, depending upon the time &
substance of my last meal.
As for oatmeal, I have only relayed what I have read and it’s relative
success. It is recommended in - and I have quoted from - the
Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine. Insomnia is what brought me to this
program and oatmeal saved my life, allowing me to *finally* sleep
through the night. Now that I am sleeping, I am willing to
experiment - especially in light of the fact that oatmeal is a grain
and a carbohydrate, even if it is neutral for type O secretors. I am
a bit concerned that protein - which generally promotes mental
alertness - will be a problem for me if consumed so close to bedtime.

Only time - and experimentation - will tell.
