I am sorry but I do not know enough to suggest anything. I have always thought that the best way to prove that the cause is inflammation is to maybe research into what prescription drugs control inflammation and whether it can be taken continuously to control said inflammation and than check...

Body fat

I understand it aids insulin production which = body fats

Hello bulkbiker, I remember clearly a comment you made about a recent article about a nearly half million study about fats and BMI and your comment regarding Pharma sponsor. That was the spur for me to post here. Thank you. I don’t understand what you mean by the answer to my conundrum. Can you...

Please accept my apologies for not having introduced myself. My excuse is that I am a lazy communicator. Let me formally introduce myself. Although my user name is Mr Phillips2, as some people seem to insist on calling me, my actual name is Philip or Phil. I am sorry, but I can’t give you...

It cannot possibly be failing beta cells as I have had normal hba1c numbers since. I have never dieted in my life.

Yes, very possible that we need to bark up several trees but that is precisely where my problem is. My mindset is such that I hate to over complicate matters as we all know how easy it is to do so. I myself was barking up the sedentary lifestyle tree, as I retired about 15 years ago. So many...

Oh, I have no doubts it is a carb intolerance but what caused this condition? I have always suspected that I have some sort of inflammation issue and if I am not mistaken I remember seeing some elevated readings In my records in the past. I will need to have another look again. Inflammation is...

Merry Christmas everyone. The two charts below seem to indicate that we have been barking up the wrong tree with our many theories about fats and insulin resistance. You will note that although the timeline is not perfect, the charts reviewed in unison highlights a couple of important points...

I have no experience with CBD oil but have been using cannabis oil (includes hefty percentage of THC in the oil) for over three years to control my blood sugar and can report that my HbA1c is in the normal range. As I understand it, there are other type 1s that have tried using this drug to...

I don’t think I deserve to be congratulated as it is more due to luck. My last HbA1c in May 2019 was 41 which was an increase from a reading of 38 in December 2018. This increase is slightly perturbing as it could be to do with not following any diets but I take comfort from the fact that when...

I don’t normally post but have done so in this instance for the good doctor. Yes, it is possible to have a normal diet and still maintain a normal HbA1c ie. below 42. When I stopped taking my glicazide medication for diabetes about three years ago, I initially tried the eatwell plate diet as...
