Ever tried stevia for sweetener in tea? I'm talking good quality stuff- not powders, & not the kind you find in a grocery store. I use flavored ones from health food stores in fruit smoothies, & hear some people use a rootbeer flavor (or maybe it's cola, etc.) in carbonated water to give them the soda type fix. I still use real sugar in coffee & honey in hot tea though.

So you ate roasted & salted sunflower seeds? Could you roast your own & use a high quality sea salt? Pink hymalayan or celtic gray? A good sea salt actually helps prevent swelling - got to keep those sodium-potassium pumps going in your cells. The salt we all grew up on (& is in everything) is a cheap chemical by comparison. But you've got to look into it yourself, if you feel like it. & I'm no medical expert either.

You are right, the long-term, lifestyle aspect of it will be what makes it all work toward your goal. I hope you find joy & energy in your path.
Yeah, I eat the roasted and salted seeds... I had never had an issue like that before.. But, all was fine very shortly after just elevating my feet for a few minutes.

As for Stevia..don't know that I've ever heard of that.. Celtic gray..I should have known something "Celtic" related would make its way into the conversation.
