    Skin discolouration

    I was hoping that some of the Female Member's might have answered........ :) As you have already had a diagnosis we can offer suggestions from our own knowledge and experience. From the sound of your description it does sound very much like a Fungal Yeast infection.......I think you need to...

    Plateu syndrome?

    Personally.....my kick start is just to lower the carb intake along with increased activity, I never bother looking at calories. It always seems to work for me. I did once check out my calorie intake, it was very low anyway because of my food choices.

    You have to work out what is best for you as we all have differing food likes and dislikes.....you should be able to choose from a large variety of foods, many things may not be taboo providing you keep testing to see the effect they have on you. This is the information that Daisy passed on to...

    ketones low carbing type 2

    Daisy. I may be wrong but I think Ketostix is the trade name wherever you are. However from the package I have in front of me it also describes them in several languages - French : Bandellettes reactives pour analyse d'urine. A French online Pharmacy describes them so : Ketostix 50...

    Aspartame & Candarel

    Richard. Twisted sarcasm.......Bullying ? Oh dear...... :( I am posting MY opinion, MY comments. Factual and concise as one Member once put it. They are nothing to do with the Administrator or anyone else for that matter. I enjoy debate or discussion, on-line or in person. I don't mind if I...

    More Cereal, Fewer Donuts To Drop High Blood Pressure Risk

    Re: More Cereal, Fewer Donuts To Drop High Blood Pressure Ri Yes Jim, that's the problem. They are good for certain things, however it is a fact that many diabetic's are unable to tolerate them with reference to Bg levels. So no matter how noble the cause, they aren't always going to be good...

    Pill in the morning prevented type 2

    I was intrigued when I saw this as I had read about it a while ago elsewhere, the ACT Now study utilising Pioglitazone. It was started some time in 2004 and the length of time people were trialled on it was at it's longest 4 yrs. My thought is why has it appeared now as if it is something...
