During my diabetes journey I always have to square off controversial matters to my own satisfaction. I have a mantra to not ever again outsource my health to someone elses belief system without checking for myself, especially as I have influenced my family and friends choices . I am happy with...

More of this please. If channels are going to have Dr Aseem Malholtra as the counter balance to the "mad" Carnivore diet, long may this continue. I know Shawn did not get through the scope he trailed in an earlier vlog, but just getting his anecdotal message out and having this backed by Aseem...

I had a positive PCR test on 30th Oct' 21, so began the 10 days isolation. I had a headache as my solitary symptom. At this point I stopped exercise and respected the condition with bed rest. After a few days the headache subsided, so felt I was on the road to recovery. Two days after my...

It does not matter if I am listening to pundits on Sky, LBC or the presenters on the BBC, each time climate change is discussed "eat less meat is said". This has been repeated by politicians, influential family members of politicians and even royalty. There is a term is called "repetitive...

Worth a watch. The impact of Coco Cola in Mexico in relation to diabetes.. There's a lady trying to cure diabetes with full "fat" Coco Cola?!

For several years I have been attempting to optimise my diabetes management. I often call out dietary claims, as to what is being eaten and what are the glucose responses are, so I am posting a cross sectional snapshot of where I am at, as this is a journey. This post covers, food, cgm results...

The shock was the gap:

I was doing my usual listening to YouTubes in the background whilst doing my IT work. I saw Sarah Halberg and didn't pay much attention to the whole title. This brilliant lady has been battling lung cancer for several years whilst still inspiring and saving the lives of 1000's. Her YouTube...

What is your opinion is the best method of testing Red Meat health, and rate in your order. I have listed a couple of points loosely based around the evidence hierarchy: 1. Food Frequency Questionnaire...

I would like to find out what other Type 2's who are in remission have experienced with the QRISK 2 calculator. Has your Doctor or Diabetes Nurse selected "None" or "Type 2" for the calculators diabetes status dropdown. Although QRISK 3 is available, my surgery still use 2.

My next door neighbour has Covid. He tested positive on Boxing day. His wife is a nurse, so he is in good hands. My wife and I are assisting as best as we can. I have read a lot about the technical side of Covid, such as the mechanisms, numbers and demographics, but not what to do in the...

Here's an extract from an email sent to me. There is permission to send the link to watch: Were you unable to watch Sacred Cow in between Thanksgiving Zoom calls? Did your meat-skeptical friend not get around to watching so you two could finally have a thoughtful discussion about a healthy...

It is coming to pass that those of us who have found that meat, dairy and fish are essential for blood glucose control, insulin and health will find that the "medicine" will soon get more expensive, post Brexit, and as some wish is on the road to being abolished. There it is in black and white...

https://www.climateassembly.uk/documents/88/Chapter_6.pdf Clever. Keep chipping away and making sure animal produce is the problem. The first bullet point is just code for plant based farming, and the second point makes clear what needs to go. By using big numbers like 20 to 40% the...

Something has been niggling me for months, so wanted to gauge what a consensus others have. What do you consider a normal fasting, pre-meal, and maximal rise in blood glucose reading in your opinion. We can see what the range is on this site, but what is your view as an average. No judgement...

With the disclaimers that no one (especially Type 1's) should just try this without proper guidance and understanding of carb counting, can someone explain how to count insulin requirements when a high protein low carb diet is undertaken. Preferably the method Type 1 Grit members use would be...

If you get to meet Zoe she is a petite lady. Once she starts talking you soon realise she is akin to Eddie Hall in terms of her literacy regarding health matters, truly astonishing levels of knowledge, attention to detail and dissemination of facts for the likes of me. Yesterday evening (2nd...
