Another example of good and bad do we know enough or done LCHF long enough to know if that is true or not
I have no doubt in my mind that low carb has increased my health by shed loads!
I was really ill. Couldn't cope with everyday life, it was a drudge.
All my tests and readings were causing my docs to issue warnings that my health was suffering. Now over a year later, all repeat all my readings are very repeat very healthy, better than thirty years ago! I cannot eat other than very low carbs. I have my life back, why would I want to go backwards again.
Carbs are poison! Wheat and spuds my enemy, sugar my nemesis.
I won't be convinced otherwise!
In the NHS some docs think that because a certain low level of supposedly high fibre- low digesting grains are good for your heart that it doesn't matter what it is doing to your other organs and visceral fat which is a major reason behind insulin resistance is discounted!!
My family has a very bad history of heart problems as well as diabetes.
I told my brother, who was told to eat grains and carbs for his heart because of a leaking vein near heart, my mother had the same. To try low carb for a month, he did. His heart results were positive and his BP is measurably better. When he told his specialist, he immediately dismissed my brother that low carbs were a direct positive on his health. My brother still low carbs!
I cannot recommend enough!
