Gosh Bluetit Currently trying 25% carbs, 25% protein, 50% fat and 1200 calories Love to know a day's menu with 50% fat and 1200 calories!! Now that Link from Brunnaria is more my style in that it said nothing has been proven about high protein. I do a lot of exercise - usually 2 cardio classes...

As someone who has done low carb/low GI for years and I don't care how much fat I eat I would like to know how much protein is too much as I eat a lot of protein to stop me being hungry . Maybe I should be bothered about my kidneys? I do exercise a lot. My fasting bs is beginning to creep up now...

I was also getting 6+ in the morning but my new regime of taking my Chromium picolate 2 x 200 + 1 500mg Magnesium + 30 drops of Milk Thistles tincture at night, before bed, rather than during the day I believe is what has brought it down to 5.3 every morning for the past week!! I even tested...

Am finding Superdrug's Slim gum is stopping me nibbling when I am not really hungry but want something in my mouth.It's very minty It contains Green coffee bean extract, Green tea extractm L Carnitine, Chromium, Thiamin, Biotin and unfortunately naughty disgusting aspartame - why not Xylitol!!

I find this CoQ10 stuff very interesting as it is new to me. I find that taking Milk Thistle - a liver tonic- makes my fasting figures normal. I take 30 drops twice a day. I also agree that if I am ill my numbers can go up to 8 and there is nothing ytou can do about it until the cold or whatever...

Have Have you found the delicious Irish Yoghurts at the supermarket. I get them in Morrisons. Fruit flavours , no sugar, unfortunately low fat as well.

I'm afraid health professionals can't think further than the latest guidelines and that is it. But we know that we know better and we have clinical proof of this!!! I have managed to stay off meds for 7 years now with low carbing but I have to admit it is becoming more difficult to stay below...

I make pizza for myself using long slices of Aubergine (eggplant) as the base- it works well!!

Burgen bread is OK in the Soya and Linseed variety

I've tried the Vick and all it did was discolour my nails.(Tried the cider vinegar twice now without success) I've been nails doing the Listerine for about 3 weeks. My nails seem stronger i.e. they are not peeling off in paper thin bits. I haven't seen any other improvement. I suppose really if...

Thanks for that link. They have some wonderful products especially the 100% chocolate buttons. Have only found these in Singapore up to now and then in only in 100g packs!!

I use gram flour for coating fish, chicken etc but wondered if you can actually use it to make cakes with probably combined with other flours such as almond and coconut. Anyone got a recipe. Gram flour is very high protein and used in bhajis.

I made the cake up again - this time with unsalted butter and flavoured with cinnamon and coffee. I may have also put some xylitol in . I baked the mixture in muffin tins and froze the little cakes just getting out what I need. At the same time I made a batch of the Durkin muffins (with oat...

Really? Sounds like I need to test? I wonder how much to try and when to test?

I have just downloaded the free Back to School cookbook from the newsletter I received today and there are some interesting recipes there especially making lasagne with strips of courgette!! Anyhow I was looking at the cake recipes as I have been experimenting with coconut flour and many of them...

Will freeze the next batch. I made it as a loaf so could slice and then freeze.

The best advice I was ever given by a diabetic nurse was to only eat fruit with a meal so I eat my fruit with each meal as I love fruit!!! I always buy the small fun sizeed apples and pears, never large ones :)

I wonder if it would have been OK if I had put it in the fridge? Maybe next time I will pour the mixture into cake cases and freeze and then get out daily or as I want one. Also I decided that the reason it tasted a bit salty was because I used salted butter derrrr!!!!

The Terrasil worked great on my psoriasis and have ordered more as the little 14g tub was gone in a week. I have just bought some Listerine - the original one- and am using it twice a day. I will be so impressed if I ever see any healthy nail growing!!! I think my problem could be psoriasis toe...

Yuck Yuck Yuck- just went to the cake I made 2 days ago and it had gone disgusting. It tasted foul. Could it have gone off in 2 days. Anyone experienced at this?
