Hi Dr. Graham!
I recently switch to 80/10/10 (I have been vegan for 5 years and vegetarian for 9 years before), but every time I eat fruit I get chest pain and my belly and stomach are so bloated, I don't know what to do. I really love orange juice, but that seems to be the worst when it comes to my heart beating so fast and chest pain (I tried to drink it slowly, but it does not help). Also bananas are really bad too, my stomach looks like I am gonna deliver twins anytime soon. Will this go away after a while, or is it something I should be worry about? I have been adding celery to banana smoothie, as I read it may help, but my stomach is still very bloated, as it is after every fruit I eat.
Another problem I have is I don't go to bathroom every day. Water with lemon in the morning was working for few days, but now I am back to going once in two days or so. I eat only fruit and greens and veggies, but last night I had one avocado with my salad and had diarrhea last night and this morning again. Should I add little more fat to be able to go? I keep my fat under 10%.
Thank you for your help!
Sophia
