Carnivore is also in his firing line.....but then he effectively says yo add plants to carnivore. Isn't that called a Ketogenic diet, which he says doesn't work

He's getting it from all angles, even the CICO crowd: I do believe that the microbiome is involved with health status, but "we" should not pretend that eating 30 odd plants is the way to go, when "we" have to industrialise plants to make them edible. I remember Tim being on one of...

I disagree with Tim that Keto only works for a few months. He would be well aware of sites like this, Virta Health etc, which leaves his claims in the wilderness. I posted on the hosts site respectful views contradicting Tim....they were pulled.

Between 21 and 30.

The first thing to say is that I am not an expert, but as with my diet I am honing in on what works for me, much of which is transferable to many. My wife is an expert (ex-PT, Sports Scientist and Physio, so I get my advice from her and watch alot of YouTube). I would describe my best workouts...

Correction. I noticed green plates on the end In the avatar picture so that is 440 lbs (200 kg). Here's the real 485 on 22nd Oct:

Hi @Mdub this was 485 lbs (220 kg) a few weeks ago. Last year I got 500 lbs https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/regular-moderate-exercise-log.83995/post-2445181, then got severe Covid a few days later and lost all of my strength and muscle. It has been a long road back, the hardest being...

Some great points above. I have flogged HbA1c results to death, as I also thought mine were discordant with testing fasting blood glucose, post prandial rises and everything in-between. I tested 6 meters and many Libre CGM sensors. I found that the home test A1cNow + was the closest to what I...

The advice from @JohnEGreen is potentially life saving and very cheap circa £15.00 - £20.00 (I know from direct complication experience). If you have a newish smartwatch from Samsung, Apple or Garmin it is likely to have blood oxygen monitoring built in, where you would want to be 94% or...

What! If it is untrue it will be flagged, I have read / seen anecdotal videos for years of people in your situation...don't forget many organisations still say Type 2 is chronic and progressive, yet my meters, A1c and fructosamine tests say different.

Strange that, they call insulin resistance an inability to eat mostly fake or hybridised food like products. It is no coincidence that approaching 100% of the recommended foods were not around 10 k years ago or their original form / sweetness is nothing like it is now. I would not reach for...

The eminent professor Tim Noakes who was one of the inventors of gels to replenish glycogen for running and wrote the Lore of Running, has disowned the section on fueling with carbs. From what I have observed with Volek and Phinney's (The FASTER study), Noakes and other research, it is possible...

I am not on insulin but would like to offer encouragement. Based on your foods above you are omnivorous. This would make you a candidate for the law of low numbers. The lower your sugar / carbohydrate numbers the lower your before, during, after meals and amount of insulin required. It is as...

Collapsing the diabetes risk is far more important than a coinciding rise in LDL cholesterol. Assuming you are fat adapted you will need more transporters. Usually, triglycerides go down and HDL goes up (which is what you want). There is a consensus that LDL is causative of CVD, due to the...

I don't think it is factual that Metformin is safe in the long term, it is only circa 27 years since it was approved, so not even a generation. Any claim is guess work, we are still in a virtual trial period as far as I am concerned.

I would simply do a 10 minute brisk walk after each meal. List of Pros: Proven to lower blood glucose and insulin rise in all cases (and more than Metformin) Aids digestion Get generally fitter No side affects

"Main gaining" is doing the rounds at the moment, as it ultimately gets almost the same muscle gains as the traditional bulk, cut without the swings in body fat, back and forth. This assumes you are not trying to be a mass monster, and not doing PEDs. You possibly get better body composition...

Every year we see the results of going too far with the choices. The traditional dinner should be easy, replacing potatoes with butternut squash. Something in the region of what @Triciaw does can work. I have had home made keto cheese cakes, brownies, lemon drizzle made with almond flour.

Having children is thr ultimate blessing. You have a choice to potential bring up to favour savoury. Teach any child you have how to cook from scratch, make treats themselves and the truth about all food types. If you also are able to take a holistic approach to well being such as a sport...

Diet Doctor are not fast and loose with the truth and are respectful to plant advocates to the point of having dietary recommendations. In my assessment of what I found, I will either cite my example, which is middle of the range for a typically adherent low carber or reference other evidence...
