    Yes I know that now. I’ve made changes and cut out gluten once again, as I mentioned.

    Just Got my Casual "Oh your blood test showed prediabetes"

    So I was off gluten for many years but went back on it for a time because I was seemingly healed. Well it eventually started wreaking havoc again hence why I was going off it. There was a period of time where gluten didn't seem to affect me negatively at all. Seemed to need time before it became...

    Yeah so I was drinking salt water specifically for the keto flu. I followed a guy on youtube and took all the precautions he recommended. Anyways I mentioned it in this topic but the TL;DR version is it was only 20 degrees Celsius out (this year I worked construction in 35 with no real fatigue)...

    Just Got my Casual "Oh your blood test showed prediabetes"

    Ok but I didn't just feel bad on keto, I had lower tolerance to a mildly warm day. Seems so whack. Anyhow I see my doctor tomorrow, hopefully I can get to the bottom of this. For years I been getting blood tests because I'm a hypochondriac and they always mention "no diabetes" till yesterday. So...

    Just Got my Casual "Oh your blood test showed prediabetes"

    I do have several layers of thermal underwear tho @JoKalsbeek So I had my appendix taken out last year and there was no mention of high glucose. This just seems so odd to me. Aside from callouses on my big toes, my feet are fine. Yes I had a cavity this year and they say there are more but I...

    Yes I want to GAIN weight/muscle too tho. So it's hard. I tried keto for about a month before I nearly died I am certain of it Also I can't justify hard boiled eggs. The shells never come off clean.It wastes time and it wastes edible egg that sticks to the shell. I do have an open mind. I've...

    I mean, blueberries can reduce inflammation like advil so... yeah often there is a natural route one can take instead of pharmaceuticals

    So as I mentioned I work in construction and I live in Canada so I work outside. Not sure you understand how cold it gets here in the winter but I absolutely need all the padding I can get to stay warm

    Wow thank you, this looks promising... I can't eat nuts tho. Also, I've read that dairy spikes insulin? And my last concern is that I'm so skinny losing any more weight may be dangerous wouldnt it? Thanks!

    Well I'm sure fat weighs something doesnt it? Anyhow yeah I'll try the cauliflower with more coconut oil. Olive oil seems to make my skin break out sometimes so I don't eat a lot of it

    Just Got my Casual "Oh your blood test showed prediabetes"

    Ok but I only weigh 150lbs and I'm 6 feet tall, if there was fat on my organs, wouldn't I weigh more? As for switching to lower carbs gradually, I like that idea. I will get some cauliflour tomorrow and begin immediately but won't I need to supplement something for the lost calories? When eating...

    I don't have fat deposits. My belly is lean. Not sure what you are getting at? Did I mention I'm skinny? Hey Grandma, thanks for stopping by. I have a few reservations with your suggestions. I have a hot plate but don't have the time to prepare the kind of food I can tolerate. I work a lot, so...

    I don’t have a stove. I use an instant pot. I could make a ton of meat with it but not the eggs. Also I’m allergic to tomatoes. Oh and also all that meat worries me. I’ve heard carnivores get iron toxicity

    I always thought fat calories didn't help the same way carbs do. Since I been trying to put on weight forever, the standard advice is to always "load up on carbs".

    Just Got my Casual "Oh your blood test showed prediabetes"

    Ok but my construction job is very physically demanding, what can I eat to match the calorie requirements? Also I use an instant pot to cook pork tenderloin mostly for meat, is that like steak?

    No worries, I appreciate the questions. No I’m not a vegetarian (I only mentioned the kinds of carbs and fats I eat. I eat free from antibiotic meat for meat) I’m a hypochondriac so I wanted to make sure my diet was healthy to avoid any complications. Kind of a blanket approach especially...
