Interesting - thanks for the reply! Great to hear about your mental clarity and impulsiveness improving too
Yeah, I think sugary sweets can hurt concentration and willpower with energy/dopamine swings
I used to track macros (fat, carbs, protein) - it's a lot of effort but it helped me a lot and I want to start doing it again
The difficult thing with nutrition though is that there's conflicting information everywhere
Some sources say red meat is good, some say bad, same for eggs, dairy, pretty much every food there is
But sounds like you're making real positive changes in your life
Please keep updating your journal - it's a good inspiration to read!
