If there is any way you can do this without insulin injections you should give it a try. Insulin is definitely needed for those who no longer have a functioning pancreas for whatever reason, however that is usually quite a long way down the line . Many diabetics are diagnosed many years...

That will be interesting to see. My initial plan was definitely 1000 calories, so I fully expect to need to do that at some stage. The Om 3: Om 6 is definitely the hardest bit, but that is also where codliver oil is a great resource. You are right that it takes a while to get the hang of...

Here is an example of just how insidious Omega 6 oils are. I have a friend M. We are making great progress in sorting out his health problems . M is a classic patient of a struggling NHS practice where there is little discussion about why or how, a lot of medication and little actual...

I did generally try to go for a brief walk after eating as I've read a lot of research that suggests that helps ( and found it does for me too). And I plan to continue with it. Interestingly the big drop seems to come when I sit back down again afterwards ! During my three magic lasagne days...

Hmm clearly not explaining myself well :) totally back to front ! :) " In my opinion" Omega 3 is GOOD _ though no doubt " within reason " like all things as per this article https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/fish-oil-friend-or-foe-201307126467 Omega 6 You need some Omega 6 but not...

@Tim, Maybe there isn't the studies on T1? but there seem to be lots for T2. I don't have the slightest idea what " openapps" is - is that technology for dealing with T1 diabetes? is it something I can get? Hhappy to give it a go if I can and its relevant to you - though as T2 I suspect...

There are tons of studies on this http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/25/10/1729.short if you google Insulin resistance and High Intensity training dozens of articles will come up Dr Michael Moseley did a TV programe on it a few years ago where he achieved remarkable improvements to...

Thanks for reminding me about this and why. When I first posted this theory on my blog, and concluded what the diet should entail it included this comment about exercise "EXERCISE Do 2 minutes High Intensity exercise on waking first thing in the morning, and after the meal as that wakes...

Thanks, " In my opinion" there are two things I am pretty certain of. a) Trigs down come from less carbs b) HDL up comes from more saturated fat (and no doubt exercise-I'm told, though I haven't personally seen that correlation) Funnily enough - one of the reasons I started this was...

Day 13 of the Low Insulin Diet (starting weight 91.6 kg, current 84.6 kg ) Waist size 86.5 cm (starting 94 cm) So I put on 0.4 kg yesterday . Though that's at least partially my own fault. One of the principles I set myself was - " figure out what you are going to eat first and once its...

That's great. I haven't managed to get no liver dump at all yet, though I have had a few days where it was much less discernible. On the weight front, mine slowed down in the second week and I have had a couple of days when it went up a bit, that's pretty standard for any diet though...

keytones before bed 52.2ppm ! glucose 4.5 mmol This method of eating certainly seems to get one's metabolism in full swing !

Nourishment on the cheap - whenever I visit a butcher ask for chicken carcasses to make stock Today's haul cost £2.00. I roast them, keep the chicken fat adding flavour for cooking, strip the meat ( 500grams this time ) and make a pie , boil the bones for a nourishing bone broth . All...

Unfortunately as a society we put more and more pressure on people to "lose weight " through eating less and exercising more ". Your wife isn't alone in dealing with the consequences of that. In my own case, many years of calorie restriction low fat eating did the same thing and resulted in my...

The problem with balancing Omega 3 and Omega 6 - which appears to be generally accepted as a good thing, is intensely difficult in today's environment unless one is very deliberately trying to do so. Take for example - a 1950 calorie day comprising cereal and skimmed milk plus orange juice...
