Well, I think you should differentiate short term and long term goals. In the short term, it may be good to eat some more carbs of your choice for energy, especially if it is getting in the way of the rest of your lifestyle. I've read some information on phytic acid in brown rice or whole wheat carbs that binds to minerals in the body. I don't know if it's true or not. I think you should eat a little bit more carrots and beets, and other high carb vegetables. Sometimes I eat raw sweet potato, which is also high in carbs.

Your variety of meat does not seem very diverse, especially since the sardines aren't raw. I think you should eat more raw fish (prefrozen) and more raw unfrozen: grassfed or free range meats like beef, lamb, chicken, etc. If availability makes it difficult, check out websites like www.northstarbison.com and also Slanker's. Get some raw: liver, heart, kidneys. Liver will give you a lot of energy.


You may be eating too many nuts.
Basically all I've said is to try and decrease the things in your diet you think are not so good and increase the things that are good. Obviously, you don't want a diet where the majority of calories comes from nuts. And again, I think your meat variety should be more diverse, and you should eat more. Fish is low calorie but superb. Consider eating shellfish like clams, oysters, which have organs in them already. Oysters will give you a lot of energy, like liver.

Also, I've read that excessive broccoli or cabbage (or those predisposed to metabolic conditions) can cause anti-thyroid activity. Thyroid regulates metabolism. Metabolism is linked to energy levels. Consider changing the vegetables you use so you aren't always eating so much broccoli or cabbage. I think many, but not all, cruciferous vegetables can have this anti-thyroid effect. I personally don't avoid cruciferous vegetables, but I don't over indulge in them either. If I had an energy problem, I would strongly consider modifying diet, exercise, nutrition, and/or sleep habits/schedule.

In regards to your question, I don't think it will be harmful to add some carbs to your diet. but which ones I can't say because.....apparently whole wheat and brown rice have phytic acid which is bad, and white flour and white rice is bad too. So that's why I eat raw sweet potato sometimes, because it has no phytic acid in it. Sometimes though if I don't feel like eating sweet potato and feel sluggish,  I will eat some other kind of carbohydrate like a piece of white sourdough bread, or some white rice--and it helps a lot. I used to eat brown rice sometimes ( a few months back) but I'm not sure if I should eat it with this whole phytic acid business. I also don't think you should eat too much fruit, so you seem to be good on that regard.

   Mercury in raw uncanned, deep sea, cold water, undried, unfrozen, unpackaged, unprocessed fish of any kind is unproven to do any harm to people via eating it.

    If you want to be like a caveman, I doubt most of them carried around a bottle of apple cider vinegar to pour on their mastodon meat.  More nutrition can be gotten out of un-marinated meat.  Marination helps you digest vegetables.  Vinegar denatures meat, and this lifestyle is about renaturing or re wilding.  Use the vinegar until you get over the obstacle.  I never used any in the beginning.  I tried it a couple times eventually, but it dries the texture of the meat out and cooks to un-raw it even if not by a fire or producing heat created toxic molecules.

I would look into lifestyle stuff first before worrying about diet.
