My objective was not to cheese you off. One side of this scenario is attempting to force me to eat like you, which for me destroys my health. I am showing my way works just as well and should not be misrepresented. This deals with the food side. When someone posts on thr climate and meat, I...

Sorry for my delayed response, these IT clients of mine for some reason want me to work for the money they pay me. I do have a few observations on your response. I understand the rationale on reducing fat. I believe for you a more protein focused low carb approach would have got you below 6...

Well done on getting into the remission range and posting some results. This makes the contrast so far almost perfectly between the low caliorie high carb method for others. What were your results on low carb. Not a criticism as we are all using hypothesis, but your trigs are "better" than...

Apologies if you think due to my wording I was referring to you rambling, completely the opposite. I used such wording out of frustration when " they" keep trying the same card trick; meat causes cancer due to us testing a protein on a pre-cancerous mice, cows are responsible for climate...

Dr Boz's advice is a resource I use from time to time. I like the fact that she stays accountable showing blood glucose and keytone readings, which I have wanted other Dr's on other protocols to do...strangely silent especially the top hierarchy). Personally, I wouldn't get too bogged down...

We are more alike than different. Be careful to not be swayed by those in the minority, especially in the context of diabetes control. It is true that an apple may spike someone to 8 and another person 7, but I would wager on other items there are more similarities than not - none of "us" can...

So I did the test today. My fasting blood glucose this morning was 4.4 mmol/L I had 2 Butchers Burgers, 50 grams of Porridge (made with milk and water), almonds, pistachios, walnuts, brazil nut, berries, at 06.45 am: After an hour a 6.8 (just over 1 point higher than my normal) After 2...

Over the next few days I am going to try some oats, maybe 50 grams to see what happens.

That's a choice I would never make if I was Type 1, as I already follow a Berstein protocol. There is good evidence that it is spikes which cause long term damage, Type 1s are not immune..

Do remember you are being compared to a population average, who are eating fast food nonsense. That's like comparing thr VO2 max of Andy Murray to Billy Bob down the road. My HDL 3 months ago was 3, I am in "your" cohort.

That's the propaganda to say the slow infusion is OK. They have to be right, if the strategy fails then the ideology fails. Its still the same sugar under the curve. If you were 15 years old playing football or netball you could deal with this quicker.

Dr Gabrielle Lyons discusses and has seen first hand the importance on muscle mass during our mature years. This does not mean an Eddie Hall training program. You are clearly with your results and concerns motivated. My in-laws started a program in their 70's and 80's just before the first...

Depends on your goals. I mix and match. In the morning I will have 4 scoops of full fat Greek yogurt as one part of my breakfast (unfortunately the farm produce I used to get has an issue with delivery). In the evening I have a lower fat yogurt such as Skyr as @Goonergal says for additional...

Some "Food for Thought" comments above, thanks. I am not as obsessive about answers as I used to be, just like things to make sense mechanistically. From Chris's presentation, he says neither meat, sugar / carbs or animal fats are diabesity causing. I am happy to dismiss meat as causative, as...

I think your suggestion to your friend was relevant as many carbs come with veg oils into the bargain.

I don't like referring to mice / rat studies, but a recall one that compared fats and the veg oils resulted in the most fatness.

I can see why some ideologies take "evidence", even with small hazard ratio's and run with it. The issue I have with the oils is the amount of quiet change over the years to fix the found issues with them. Your point about the food changes / availability I think has weight. I recall a...

Like you I know what I was doing in the 6 weeks I induced feeling fine to rampant diabetes. I was eating copious amounts of fruit, fruit juices, increased oats, home made soda bread and banana cake, alongside mixed home made meals and treats. On Chris's evidence it appears that cleaner carb...

Really interesting question. I don't know the answer, but an observation which may point you in the same direction I have gone, which is in short just focusing on fasting blood glucose and the starting position before a meal followed by the postprandial rise What I found was that my best HbA1c...

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...
