Well but I didn't feel fatique at all, to the opposite
somehow more "alive", and quicker. Really better so that I
wanted to keep it for longer, but my wife resisted it..
I think somewhat else mus have laid at the senses before.

Adrenal exhaustion is lack of a hormone production, isn't it?
What's missing in the body that this can occur?

My diet did *not* go up in carbs. As I told you i use pretty much
fats all the time. And salads aren't high in carbs.
But my diet went down in protein - i didn't know such good
plant protein sources then.
