High alkaline diet

I wanted to tell others what I was doing in my diet because I believe that it has relieved my anxiety attacks! I did research on a high alkaline diet and for a week I have stuck to it. No sugar, no caffeine, lots of fresh veggies and fruit with some fish. I also switched my water intake to a water that was high in ph value. I eliminated artificial sweeteners too! I lost ten pounds the first week...and for two straight days I have felt myself again. Just wanted to put that out there if anyone wants to try it.

Kimberly,  that sounds good.  It shows you that diet has a lot to do with our anxiety levels.     No Sugar is going to be the hardest for me.  x

I love sugar! I craved it, but now I don't even want it. It was my sons birthday couple days ago and I didn't even tempt to get a piece of cake.  But you can have raw honey! And I love that in my hot tea! Maybe give it a try....and don't forget that two teaspoons Bragg vinegar with water. Calms the nerves naturally. Within two days you will be amazed....now I did quit smoking, so I do have the withdraws of that but at least the anxiety is gone! I was freaking out....thinking every little ache I was going to die...even went to Emergency room twice ☹ i will let you all know how it goes....I am sticking with this as long as I can. I want to be healed without being drugged! I always read the side effects on drugs and end up throwing them away 😏

Please try it....feel great again today! I think I am finally getting a hold of this...maybe are bodies are telling us that we are missing certain vitamins and minerals. I know my blood work came back and I was deficient in vit B 12. I am keeping a journal on everything. I will let everyone know how it goes.

I do believe sugar plays a part in anxiety levels. I love sugar, and would take 3 or 4 teaspoons in my tea.also take biscuits or a bar after dinner..now I have cut way back..1 teaspoon in my tea, and 1 biscuit ,I have noticed I am calmer,still have anxiety,but really noticed the difference...xx

Organic oatmeal, broccoli, carrots, sweet potatoes, new potatoes the very small ones, onion, garlic, fish, gluten free bread, almonds, walnuts, raw honey, lots of herbal tea no caffeine I have a list I will try to take a picture and upload it. Also I have started doing coffee enemas with organic coffee to detox....I was able to clean for 3 hours today without stopping... I feel so good.
