BEING SAVAGE

LIVING GRAIN AND SUGAR FREE

Hello! I’m Lore de Angeles Whitehorse. I read tarot and speak to the so-called dead.
I write books,  communicate with ravens and get veryvery upset when people feeding ducks bread. Bread = Dead, you see. Oh, and I train people’s flesh-and-blood bodies through free weights and nutrition. To live.

KICK THE BLOAT

April 2014 I stopped absolutely all grains and sugar. To discover why I felt bloated all the time, listless, no energy, big belly but slender arms and legs took quite a lot of research. I know others have been down this road before me but on this I was slow. I also pretended there wasn’t a problem. I felt uncomfortable in my skin, you see. I’d moved to Melbourne, began a new life at 60. Was this the slippery downhill slope to old age? Hadn’t I promised myself I would never become one of those docile, thick old women? How had I betrayed myself?

Turns out I hadn’t. It’s called a lack of insight. I was too busy to devote myself fully to the research until I was diagnosed with high blood pressure (probably had it for years, who knows). Then I hunted in earnest. The first book I read was Wheat Belly, then Grain Brain. From there I learned about Paleo and The Atkins Diet and then worked out what worked for me.

Oh, by the way? I asked a doctor what was causing my problems. He unfortunately thought it was what happened as one ages. Yes, a fuckwit. Doctors, on the whole do NO training in nutrition or exercise. Find me an exception. I will gladly promote them.

In twelve weeks, with more nourishment than ever in my life, I dropped 17 kilos. So, the sure thing, when you ditch the carbs (including white potatoes) your natural weight will metabolise. You will enter a state called ketosis. Even the loose skin (almost) all bounced back. There’s still a bit but that’s lack of collagen and wrinkles are a sign I’ve lived this long despite…

Grains are a major factor in inflammatory conditions and many digestive problems. Can be linked to diabetes and obesity, might even wreck your brain, at some stage of your life will probably (not always) cause you grief. Getting rid of it is easy. You just have to know how.

I’m also going to promote certain products, like this here. Take it or leave it. No one pays me to do so. These products, however, are about the best I can get here in Victoria. You’ll source your own elsewhere. This blog includes my own recipes, links to cool related information, other people and groups. In the top navigation menu are all my posts, listed in categories, or you can also explore a chronological list of posts.

Come and taste to magic,
