Yet again the nay sayers choose their own parameters wrt subjects, food, length of time of study etc. K. Hall is actually very proud of this study aka very proud to have a study published. Next.

Hello and welcome. Come on in, the water's fine.

Thanks Indy. That's my evening listening sorted out.

Great job there! Keep it up.

It is not safe or wise for you to try to ration your food or your insulin. We just have to hope that the most vital of medicines are brought through any customs checks in a 'fast tracked' fashion. Other European countries seem to be able (and some have e.g Netherlands and Ireland) to put the...

Yes, I am worried too. The NHS and individual GPs have said that the government has not done enough to assuage peoples fears.

Interesting stuff. Hope it actually leads to some real investigation. https://inews.co.uk/news/health/statins-review-nhs-government-chief-medical-adviser-norman-lamb/

This is not a competition.

Eat when you are hungry. If you are not hungry then don't eat. N.B Low carb, of course.

Not inaccurate. There is no physiological need for humans to ingest carbohydrates. If I must, I will qualify that by adding that in the presence of ... where available... in the modern world... when finances allow. I refuse to be part of an argument that will (yet again) derail a perfectly...

Get well soon, lass.

Because our evolution tells us so. We are hard wired to fatten up for winter. Watch other primates gorging on fruit in the wild. As has been said there are no natural high fat high carb foods, generally speaking it is man that puts those together. I am not moving the goal posts at all, I am...

I think most of us are discerning enough by now to know that it is 'high-er healthy fats' in the LCHF way of eating rather than high carb high unhealthy fats (those man made fats - seed oils). See my comment on the Bliss Point. Ultra Processed Foods (UPF) are rightly demonised. The...

Gerrin the queue!

Just to add that Jen goes through the five criteria for covering substance addiction with the audience. What is your score?

A 45 minute non techy video covering the topic by the lovely Charlotte and Jen.

I disagree. Carbs can and do mimic the effects of any other addiction such as alcohol or cocaine. It has been shown under fMRI that the brain lights up when a patient sees pictures of their 'drug of choice'. I think the area involved is called the nucleus acumbens but I stand to be corrected...

Possibly habit but would they have it on its own? There's a lot of debate around salt intake and the RDAs. Seems like the recommended amounts are below optimum.

Sweet potato is quite carby and especially when it is baked.
