Substantial improvement with (strange) dietary adjustments

[Wishful]

In my case, my theory was that I was intolerant of something in seed germ, but that was contradicted by tolerating peanut butter -- but not roasted peanuts. Searching for "peanut butter hearts removed" revealed that the hearts (germ) are removed before making butter, to avoid bitterness. The hearts are sold for birdfood and maybe other higher-value markets.

So, if you encounter some contradiction to your theory, check the assumptions, such as 100% peanuts meaning 100% of each peanut.

Even the cheapest artificially produced citric acid molecules are identical to the ones made in your mitochondria.

Ok so this weekend I was able to really put this to the test. We for an event went to an Italian restaurant and just about everything but the plain bread had tomato sauce on or served with it. I ate a ton of it cause it was the only way I was gonna find out. The next day was a slightly lesser version of the same thing that happened and nothing else I consume normally does this. Today the reaction is still simmering down a bit. The initial effects of a lot of tomato sauce were like the other citric acid load a bit more energy cognitively and then I got tanked later and my face has a bit of that burny thing going on too which I would say is histamine but if I for example consume a large amount of soy sauce this doesn't happen whereas with a lot of soy sauce ill feel more burn in my forehead with immediately worse cognitive dysfunction with no up and down. Citric acid loading causes it everywhere on my face and in my eyes especially on the next day and then some rebound BUT there and has a weird roller coaster like effect on my cognitive energy that is consistently up and then a crash that depends on how much was consumed. What I eat around it doesn't seem to factor in as what I did eat around the time I had both reactions was different. In this context I wasn't eating as I normally do either because I went out to some Japanese place the night before and had a bunch of sushi and some fried food as well as a little soy sauce that happened to be on some of the food but not much and I didn't dip any in it.

Not sure what this implies about what is going on with me. I'm gonna dinner fast tonight and tomorrow and then have some rice and veggies with the cooked salmon and see if that helps me bounce back faster (raw salmon doesn't have the same benefit to me, had plenty the night before the tomato sauce disaster). I also ate some rice and veggies last night with no meat and that didn't do anything but make my post tomato'd digestive system feel even worse. Not feeling so hot today but at least I got that part of the experiment largely out of the way.
