    Thanks @Brunneria I get them symptoms too! Congestion, quite extreme fatigue and breakouts Found this which is quite interesting; 'Some of the symptoms of milk protein allergy differ from that of lactose intolerance; things like nasal congestion and mucus (phlegm) are more common here. And...

    Carnivore Corner

    Good idea @Goonergal I could keep some cooked mince in the fridge and just stir it in I guess? I haven't had corned beef before I don't think. @Pasha I do eat chicken quite a bit for lunches and sometimes dinner, though I don't find it very satisfying. I have fish from time to time also. Oh...

    Carnivore Corner

    Thanks @Brunneria this was what I had come up with in regards to the dairy when I was thinking about it the other day, planning on doing a bit of reading on the subject of proteins in dairy and see if anything correlates with what I experience. I think I could cope if I could at least have some...

    What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

    Ha, @Goonergal the only reason its so controlled is because I put the peanut butter in a ramkin and break the chocolate into tiny bits and drop in, cover with clingfilm and take to work. So I can't add anymore even if I wanted. Though I have been known to keep a jar of PB in my drawer at work...

    Carnivore Corner

    Hi All, need to come on these forums more! Anyway, posted just before Xmas I think, was dallying in Carnivore, but needed some variety. Still doing about 95% carnivore, recently cut dairy as I think it may be an issue for me, so variety even harder. Although butter doesn't seem to affect me at...

    @Goonergal Yes I was at real food rocks, went with my 2 kids, unfortunately I do not know anyone in the real world of low carb/keto that I could of gone with, but it was good to be around like minded people, and I spoke with Dr Unwin!

    Thanks @Goonergal where do you get the beef short ribs, don't think I have ever seen them before.. Never tried oxtail wouldn't have a clue how to prepare it. I was wondering whether it is worth investing in a slow cooker. So when you have pork chops or lamb chops for example do you just have a...

    Carnivore Corner

    Hi Everyone, Not been on the forums much lately and thought I'd have a browse! Happy to see this thread, I have been steering more towards carnivore in the past 6 or 7 months, but am struggling a bit. I can never quite fully commit to full carnivore and my meals are the same every day and I...

    Eat well for less

    Yes I watched this programme, and was very annoyed with the advice given by the dietitian, she basically replaced a sugar loaded diet with a slightly different sugar loaded diet, but it was less 'calories' so they will turn their health around and improve their diabetes....come on! No mention of...

    Could This Have Been A Hypo Episode?

    No I didn't test when it happened as I was at work and don't carry my glucose meter around with me. Thanks Lamont, I don't know if my blood sugar really tends to spike high enough to cause hyper symptoms. I did think about the fact that I would have been kicked out of ketosis, but it took 4...

    Could This Have Been A Hypo Episode?

    So I had a weird funny turn last week where I was at work and very suddenly felt strange, dizzy, then I got double vision, my left eye was more blurry and felt heavy on that side. I've never had this feeling before. I ate my lunch, and it gradually cleared, but I didn't feel right for the rest...

    Seem to be reacting to Dairy now!

    Hi Guys, Just after a bit of support. I've been doing alright on a low carb diet, still have my good days and bad. Over recent months I have been waking up in the night very congested and sometimes find it hard to get back to sleep. I also just get randomly bunged up and think I'm coming down...

    Could a Gluten Intolerance be a cause of RH?

    Thanks Lamont, do you mean you were tested for a grain intolerance? I still have a slight headache a week and a half since eating out! The problem is the symptoms are so many, it's like almost anything can be associated with a gluten intolerance. I might go back to the GP probably be a waste...

    Could a Gluten Intolerance be a cause of RH?

    Thanks @Brunnerial so have you ever got tested for coeliac? I've been searching online this evening and there are many people with coeliac reporting blood sugar issues across different forums, it's very interesting reading, a few I've come across diagnosed with hypoglycaemia young and then...

    Could a Gluten Intolerance be a cause of RH?

    I'm trying to figure something out I have had RH as long as I Can remember, although only diagnosed when I was 30. I have suffered acne since I was a teen (now 35) and it's been my life's mission to find the cause(it's also ruined my life) They do not know the reason for my RH and had it since...

    Confused after 1st Diabetic Nurse appointment

    Dieticians are pointless to me now. Hopefully this will change is the not too distant future. I really can't believe they are still dishing out such devastating advice. Its very hard to have to go against their advice and its terrible that people like myself are having to do things alone and...
