The Rising Sun : A Drink For Madmen
I’m doing everything in my power to go into and stay in a state of nutritional ketosis. This is the best place my body could be right now. Running off ketones as opposed to glucose. This is brought about by having a diet relatively low in calories with a macro breakdown of approximately 80% healthy fats, 5% protein and about 15% carbohydrates. I’ve still got to get this far more precise because I’ll be honest, I’m still guessing. But the last 2 GKI (Glucose Ketone Index) readings have both been below 3 which means that I am in nutritional ketosis.
One of my “tools” that I have created is a drink that I make once a day that is full of fat in the form of MCT oil, Hemp seed oil and avocado. It’s an intense drop but I’m finding it both effective and palatable.
Here’s a list of ingredients.
I call the drink “The Rising Sun”
2 tbs MCT oil (medium chain triglicerates)
1 tbs hemp seed oil
1/2 an avocado
2 tbs apple cider vinegar
juice from 1 lemon
1 cup of water
Approx 80-100 grams of broccoli seed sprouts
2 medium strawberries
1/2 tsp curcumin
1 tsp Vit C powder
The ingredients are put into the Nutribullet and blended until they are a rich yellow colour and quite creamy. I end up with 2 large mugs which is surprisingly filling.
