Eating Healthy For 2 Years. Feeling Weak, Nauseous And Rapid Heart Beat While Eating Fatty Meal. Cause?
I was looking to loose weight. Ate only good for you foods like veggies, chicken, fish not too much carbs or fat. ( for about a year ) NOW, i still eat healthy but when i eat a fatty meal once in awhile, within about 3 hours, i am clammy, really weak, nauseous and have a rapid heart beat. First time it happened I was nearly going to call 911. I have never felt like this before. I have NO idea what it is? Any suggestions?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Let me explain , why this happens.
Carbohydrate calories value 3-4.5 K/cal/gm.
Protein 4.5- 6 K/cal
Fat 8- 9 K/cal
It is the calories which causes nausea and clammy ( somewhat sedation) .
This is not an abnormal thing.
2nd in my opinion mild allergy may be the next cause.
If you want fatty food , you can have , but less in amount.
Good luck.
