Default Garbage in, Garbage out!

If I eat too many carbs in relationship to protein, I get light headed and dizzy. Pasta without meatballs makes me a zombie. It has to do
with hormones, master hormones, etc. The zone books by Barry Sears are the best I've seen on how
to figure out your own individual needs. But basically, if you aren't hungry for 5 hours after
you eat, you're in the zone. If you're hungry in
less time than that, its one of two things.

If you are flighty, generally out of it, you ate
to much carbs or too little protein. If hungry
but sharp, too much protein or too little carbs.

Interestingly, someone, somewhere asked Melvin
Powers, if you're having trouble getting started in business, what to do. Melvin's answer was to
get on a diet and exercise program.
