    Help With Sweeteners Please

    Hi, Not sure whether you have this in Britain, but when I used to crave sugar (happily - after more than a year - the cravings have disappeared), I would use a tiny amount of Stevia. However, if it is available, please ensure that you purchase the maximum purity, and don't use Stevia mixes...

    What is the story with Diabetes UK?

    Omg...... This is my first post on this forum, as I was only seeing the typical T2 eating methods and management, but then read this today. Up until this moment I thought I was the only one of a few doing a LCHF living methodology. My doctor is the only one in our area that has studied this in...
