People are different - being exposed to all sorts of diets over the past 20 odd years I've tried damn near everything.
You are very different to me - we are probably at opposite ends of the metabolic spectrum (if you believe in that concept) or at least opposites in some areas
What works for you, or for me, may be very wrong for someone else.
These days I have a huge smoothie at around 8am, (based on home made caspian sea yogurt using organic A2 milk) taking half an hour to drink it. That lasts until 3 or 4pm when i have a small lunch. Then a larger dinner at around 7pm and go to bed around 11.30pm.
This works in well with my other activities - for example I'm busiest from 1pm to 3pm so wouldn't want to stop to eat around regular lunch times.
With no breakfast I can last until about midday and then right when I want to be at my best I feel like crap but have to try and ignore it
So that seems to work best for me. We are all different!
No I don't subscribe to the 'metabolic' bullshit. Havn't you heard of epigenetics? It's an inconvenient fact that killed the genetics hoax. We adapt to our environment to survive. We are not all different we can all survive whatever life throws at us but living optimally is a different matter. Your metabolic thing is just your excuse to keep eating what you like.
Eating what i like is of course wrong and i should eat what you say...er no, it doesnt work like that, lol...
Buce lipton actually came to wellington many years ago...yes ive heard of epigenetics!
The biology of belief...
