after it first started to dawn on me last week, i have been drinking ~1 bottle of red wine most days, sometimes a little more than 1, because of an allergic reaction to something in the wine, i presume it's the protein gak they use to get rid of the clouding so they can sell it within a year of brewing it
the actual drinking it daily part is not obviously connected to the more obvious symptoms of diarrhea and various minor niggles, blurry vision, jangled nerves, but they are all part of a complex
now that i am recognising that i drink it to blot out the symptoms of the last time i drank it, i have switched over to a much more moderate consumption of somersby cider, and it works out to probably equal amount of sugar and none of this allergic reaction, but about 2/3 of the alcohol level
and i feel fine, i honestly almost didn't even buy it today, and the digestive effects are fading, so also is the appetite for the irritant
i may actually stop drinking, just because i now have noticed that it's destroying my ability to absorb nutrients, which is making me weak, causing issues with muscles and nerves and exercise recovery
i've got a bunch of exercise apps lined up on my phone, and now i am thinking about this, i'm going to upgrade them to paid if they aren't too spendy, and start actually doing them, i have 4 specific exercises i want to do, and i figure on staggering them out so it's something to look forward to every day... situps/leg lifts and pull-ups, and push-ups and squats, most likely, to get the best balance
i hope these apps are not too spensive, i think i will like what happens next
ironically, what has helped me get through this has been buying a sack of hydrolysed beef protein isolate and eating it 2-4 times a week, which i think is basically feeding my brain and everything so that the stupifying effects are pushing against a higher level of nutrition which is letting me think properly again
i think perhaps it should be said that if you have got issues with drinking also, not saying anyone does but if you do, that the malnuturition is the hardest stumbling block, i am almost certain of this now
