Wierd symptoms - seeking input [View all]

I do intermittent fasting, though not religiously.

On Monday, I ate nothing, then went for a fun XC ski with family. Our plan was to ski for about 1.5 hours, eat a picnic in the car, then go back out and ski more. I see now I should have had at least a light breakfast.

We had lunch in the car - ham sandwiches. This is homegrown heritage pork from a neighbor - leftovers from Christmas Dinner! I don't eat a lot of meat normally (though had been chawing on this ham for a few days), and I know I normally struggle exercising after eating a big meal. We had organic potato chips (!)with the meal, and small candies after the meal, then went back out to ski more. I drank 20 ozs. of water with lunch.

Almost right away I felt woozy - lightheaded, dizzy, and suddenly really lethargic! My hands got super super cold (it was about 28 degrees out). We had to leave pretty quickly!

Since then I continue to feel lethargic and nauseous from time to time, and developed a minor rash!

I wonder if I blew out my gut biome trying to digest a huge protein hit while demanding blood to other parts of my body (xc skiing, cold)? We make our own keifer so I'm about to have a smoothie. Hope it helps! Hope it goes away fast!

Wondering if others here are big gut biome or intermittent fasting adherents?
