I had occasion to give a presentation in the Swiss Re Centre in Zurich yesterday. It was followed by a buffet. The buffet was a low carb person's delight. Every single main course item had been perfectly presented for a low carb, person. No bread in sight anywhere, one tiny pasta choice...

Yes that fasting insulin is perfect at 3.1 - that coupled with great blood sugar figures suggests to me that whatever you are doing is totally optimal for your health and as such I wouldn't worry too much about the odd few points in Hba1C, all of the indicators simply suggest "keep calm and...

That is marvellous news, congratulations !

You may find you do not need the statins anymore which may help, If you are looking to eat more proteins instead look up Dr Ted Naimann on twitter, he has a lot of interesting stuff on it.

as above plus sugar alcohol

very hard to stop when you are shelling it yourself - my actual portion was planned to be 100. but I kinda added a bit on for the nibbles ! - it is the only protein I had today though so not that bad

Other studies I heev read suggest that psyllium is not that useful being mainly soluble fibre, whereas the stuff you really want is full of insoluble fibre that forms the lattice work which the soluble elements can hang off to slow absoprtion. celery is a good example. the article itself is...

You are correct that there is another autoimmune disease which it might be worth exploring. It is called Type B insulin resistance - which is a rare autoimmune disorder which is characterised by extreme insulin resistance and extreme vitamin D deficiency . It appears remission - i.e...

"Live Life Lustily" is my motto. In practise that means - try to do whats the right thing for me, but do it in a way that makes me happy - so now and again I go off the rails and I don't worry about it instead I try to find some activity that will help me offset things. Last night I...

Thank you for the info. My own BP has definitely improved with one meal per day. The palpitations have also gone, my morning blood glucose is a bit higher too, but no real spikes from the main meal. It is also definitely easier to simply ignore food until the one meal that day. Its...
