after a meal, small or large i am so weak and uncoordinated for awhile...doesn't matter what food..i don't eat junk..thx, kathy

Are you sure it doesn't matter what you eat? If you eat just tofu, hard boiled eggs, or some other food that has virtually no carbohydrates, do you still feel weak? How soon after eating do you feel weak? Do you have any other digestive symptoms? What do you typically eat? Do you tend to eat small meals, or a smaller number of meals that are large? Do you take vitamins with your meals? It is hard to try to figure out what is going on without more information.

For a while, no matter what I ate, I got really cold during and after eating...even if the meal was piping hot. It was really frustrating.

I searched the net, and found someone with this who said it was due to a severe vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is linked to insulin resistance. Do you get plenty of sunlight, or take vitamin D supplements?

On another website.

"Other considerations would be GERD, ulcers, gastroparesis, pancreatic or gall bladder disease. Test to evaluate these disorders would be an upper GI series/upper endoscopy, abdominal ultrasound or tests for the pancreas, including pancreatic enzymes."

It might be hypogycemia, in which case a low carb diet, and 5 or 6 small meals spread out per day and no large meals might help.

It means that your body is working overtime to digest the food you have eaten. All your energy is going into trying to digest the food in there. It's one of the most important parts of your body because if you can't digest the food you eat, life will become short, so all energy is diverted to that most important task...which is to digest your food.

In the short term try and keep your food really simple and really uber-healthy. zero refined foods, for example avoid white rice, pasta's, regular bread & pasturised dairy.

But the question is..........
Why is your body using so much energy on normal food?
What could be happening inside you that makes it so difficult to do something so simple?
why why why?

you are ill? obviously.
its not working inside? obviously.
you lack certain vitamins or minerals? maybe, but why do you lack them in the first place?

so, back to the main question: Why is your body using so much energy on normal food?

there must be something inside you that is stopping you from being able to digest your food.
there must be something inside you that is stopping you from getting the vits&minerals you need.

can you think of any other reason why something so simple & normal is so difficult to do?

The simplest explaination is there is something in there stopping your body from being able to do its job.

That could be many different things, bacteria overgrowth, parasites, fungus. Or maybe rubbery mucus stuff called Muqoid plaque, which is the gloop that your body produces to protect itself from toxics. over the course of your life thick mucus builds up inside you and stops you digesting your food. the more toxins, the more mucus you have, the more rubbery stuff gets glogged up and the less food you digest. Eventually a think rubber coating coats the entire digestive tract. intween this coating and your digestive tract is a bit dirty and so bacteria/parasites/fungus grown and make the problem worse until eventually your body tries so hard to digest the food that it takes up so much of your energy that you feel weak and uncoordinated for awhile.

Lots of new ideas eh?

the solution is to clean out the insides somehow. You wash the outside of your body every day.....sometimes you need cleanse the inside too.

I can recommend some herbs for you that will do this for you. They are cheap as chips too.

"Humacleanse" and "Humaworm" - do both at the same time. it involves taking herbs everyday for 1 month and drinking plenty of water. these herbs will flush out any toxins and kill any bacteria lurking.

You can get them here:

i suggest you read up heavily on this website before you do it, but i cured the same problems you have with those herbs.

they have very good support forum here:

This is a project you will need to dedicate a couple of hours to, minimum, to understand this new subject. Think of these herbs as an long overdue service for your body.

Hope this helps
