Came out of the gym today, ate my daily 20oz ground beef + 10g cacao beans + 10g walnuts post workout snack, and then had the hardest craving for turkey pepperettes and whiskey. (Pepperettes are mass produced cured meat sticks) SO I thought OK I'll try some pepperettes.
My effin' head is pounding now. Heartrate very high compared to what it usually is. Holy headache. Every beat of my heart is like a shockwave going through my head right now, WTH! I'm shaking and feel weak and am bloated. Brutal. It's already subsiding, I ate about 250g of the stuff. What gets me is that people eat this stuff EVERY DAY!!! :-O
Ingredient list from the package:
-turkey, potassium lactate, salt, sugar, hydrolyzed corn protein, potassium choride, spices and spice extracts, onion powder, dextrose, lemon powder, sodium ascorbate, garlic powder, smoke flavor, sodium nitrite, smoke.
I feel like shit. And typing out that ingredient list makes me feel even more like shit, like what the fuck was I thinking! I threw the rest of them out...and I didn't give into the whiskey btw, lol. I hope I haven't gone too far backwards now
But at least it's really hit home that raw paleo is the way to go. I'm still blown away that I used to be able to eat this crap every day, and the general population continues to do so :O
