It depends on the day. My eating schedule and the foods I eat change on a daily basis. But yesterday here's what I ate and I woke up in
the middle of night yesterday, feeling very hot and thirsty
10 am: 2 eggs and potatoes (300 calories)
2 PM: 12 inch italian sub (1200)
6 PM: Rice and some chicken ( 600 calories)
10 PM: 10 sugar cookies ( bad choice, I know lol) ( 400 calories)
1 AM: 2 Tablespoons of olive oil (240 calories)
This is probably wise - not all the advice in this forum is consistent with Peat's writing, and sometimes there are differences in interpretation or emphasis on different factors. Ideally, posters should be explicitly stating when their views contradict Peat's, but unfortunately that does not always happen. Confidently following one person's advice is no guarantee of it suiting you.As a beginner to RP I don't feel confident taking the advice given here because of the disputes within each post.

I'd recommend reading more, including reading Peat to get more of an idea of how he sees things, and about the principles and processes involved. Hopefully that will give you a better chance at figuring out what might help you, and make it easier to monitor and assess the effects of what you try.
If you find a completely simple unambiguous generalised prescription for everyone somewhere, the odds are it is too oversimplified.
me too!!!! it think it means that our cortisol is high. i've felt so "off" this week that i googled to see if mercury is in retrograde(it's not). it feels like some earth type event is gonna happen. i've literally woken up in the middle of the night every night for the last week w/racing heart & warmth. i took theanine & it didn't help. maybe i need a higher thyroid dose???I'm bumping this thread. I have been waking up with a pounding heart at 3-4am everyday this past week and am not sure what to do about it. I've upped my food intake, reduced my supplements down to thyroid, progest-e, some niacinmide and B1 and casein protein. Can someone tell me what might be happening when I wake up at 3 or 4 am with a pounding heart, feeling extra warm and can't go back to sleep? Has my liver lost it's ability to store glycogen? Is the niacinamide causing me to burn sugar too fast? I eat mainly eggs, various fruits & smoothies throughout the day, oj with casein, seafood, liver, coffee, white potatoes, cheese, coffee with milk and some beef.
Not resolving negative emotions is my top reason for the 3 am waking. But I also use cyproheptadine to sleep through. It is the only thing that reliably reduces/eliminates that waking. I think it helps reduce cortisol and protect from endotoxin.
