Why would a person in a healthy state need to scrutinize foods for 5ari activity? It’s also kind of difficult to enjoy life when you could only sleep for 1-3 hours at a time. Also, it wasn’t just the insomnia, I had other symptoms come back. The adverse effects were equal to taking supplements. I believe you’re almost-to-fully recovered, right?
It’s only after the fact that I crashed with cacao nibs that I’m trying to be more careful about what I eat and replicate the good days while avoiding bad days. I get what you’re saying, I’m not trying to cause orthorexia here. My normal diet minus the nibs never caused such dramatic results. But I bet you that before I posted this thread, many people wouldn’t have thought twice about eating cacao nibs. I also didn’t say to avoid cocoa altogether, just not at such large amounts at a time. I’m at least helping others from getting burned.
