Hello, I'm new here and looking to make a change in my lifestyle. I started eating paleo about 3 years ago and it was great in the beginning. I ate lots of fatty foods, etc. and lost a total of 60 lbs.
It served it's purpose, but within the last year, I have a consistent feeling of a lack of energy, brain fog, etc.
I need to make a change and am overly excited about eating carbs, veggies, fruit, etc!!! I know that sounds silly, but I can't wait.
I recently participated in a DNAFIT test and it concluded that I have a high carbohydrate sensitivity.
The report shows that I have a association with the PPARG and TCF7L2 genes, which indicate that I should only get 8% of my total daily calories from carbs.
I don't know what to believe at this point honestly and need some guidance.
The vegan lifestyle makes sense to me, but this test is throwing me off.
Please chime in with anything you can share to shed some light on the issue at hand.
Thank you,
Wilson
