    Newly diagnosed - overwhelmed!

    That’s the bad news. Sorta. The good news is the way people report feeling after about 30 days of healthy eating. For me, in a similar situation as yours: High natural fats. We cleaned out every lab oil in the house. No processed foods w their “less than 1% sugar” (yeah? So why the need...

    why are some of us not happy with morning readings ?

    Diabetes Code indicates increase in results seem to be after 6 months — The first 6 months bring the levels down but during the next 6 months, the body’s acclimation brings more benefit. In spite of ups and downs, I’m seeing the pattern of progress as I move towards month 8. Highs are not...

    Pre Diabetes and Reactive Hypoglycaemia

    I think you’re wise to be concerned. Eating a high healthy (natural) fat diet that is very low carb for... 30 days will likely mean that no one will have to talk you into anything. Experiencing it for yourself will do the trick. Grazing won’t be necessary —you’ll be too full. Much success!

    Anyone else feel their Doctor(s) let them down ?

    I’ve lost confidence in “day to day healthcare” and pill peddling but still hold surgery in high regard.

    Type 2 Milk

    I’m a black coffee guy but my wife uses cream. Full fat, grass fed. She didn’t need to lose weight but did—body fat - and her ketone level is always 2.0 and above. She was raised on a farm but in college was told she’d die from her farm diet. Now she lathers everything in butter. She...

    Chills with high blood sugars the strangest thing ?

    Perhaps that’s why I seem to feel the cold more acutely during a spike.

    Chills with high blood sugars the strangest thing ?

    I’ve found elevated BG sugars to impact how cold I feel, my resting heart rate and a return of chronic pain. I decided the Einkorn dark chocolate chip cookies weren’t worth it.

    Husband recently diagnosed with type 2 need some help

    I said goodbye to ales. It is carbs on steroids and the U.K. ones were only standards to my home brewing. I once made oatmeal stout. I forgot about a case and discovered it 3 or 4 years later. It was the smoothest most wonderful stout I’d ever tasted. Oh, the memories! I should...
