    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi If I eat any significant sugar/starch I have severe fatigue. Is that not a sugar problem? If I eat too much sugar I am subject to severe hypoglycemia many hours later. Is that not a sugar problem. Why don't I belong?

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi The problem is not insulin resistance the problem is the "hunter" gene. I have one theory that I do not get diabetes because my family has lived in a grain environment for a long evolutionary time and our adjustment is that although we can get fat we don't get diabetes.

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi Where is what you wrote make my answer wrong. You have written what makes me think why the "hunter" gene is not evolutionary prevalent in this society. It is great for famines, so what is the problem. As I wrote with the "hunter" gene with our diet there is a large tendency to become...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi The doctors are wrong. Maybe not always. I know one person who they took a glucose tolerance test after pregnancy and looked at her "hunter" result and said you are sure to get diabetes (about 40 years) ago. I will not go on. Neil

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi Thanks. I must be producing eneough insulin to keep my body happy. I have been on this diet for about 7 years. The "hunter" gene is a gene which has the thrifty response. The difference is that the way it works is obvious (to me). The doctor who called it the hunter gene knew what he...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi The doctors know nothing about the "hunter" gene. I have been communicating with possibly the world expert on Adrenaline related problems. He seems to find my musings very interesting. I should have an article in the Scientific American (seeing is believing). I do not have any...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi Recently your site reported that a young boy has not had insulin for 2 years and has type 1 diabetes. Look it up. I had all the symptoms except excessive urination. The weight loss (about 20-25 pounds) stopped after about 2 months. I did not have the follow on symptoms. It took me...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi No. I now am under control and do not wish to test in any way which breaks my present condition. It took (guess) about 2 years for most of the symptoms associated with my sugar problems to dissipate. The one I haven't talked about is related to the vagus nerve leading to a drop of...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have emailed my expert. I said I do not know if I do not produce insulin or if it is neutralized. I do not want to eat sugar/starch (that would start my symptoms). What does he suggest. I said this because if you look at my glucose tolerance test it rises for over 2 hours and I...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have late hypoglycemia also but only if I overindulge. I have been talking to probably the world expert on adrenaline problems. I have taken all the standard tests. Everything is boringly normal. I figured out what was wrong. Only 3 other people I know about have my syptoms...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have had this presented before. I will ask my expert. I am old and run full out so tests are a problem. I am not sure if the way I do not use insulin is not producing it or neutralizing it.

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Somehow I don't see my reply. I do not produce insulin to store my sugar. Is this not what happens with type 1 diabetes? Any other questions. Your not understanding is a general problem I often encounter. As best I can gather I think differently then many people. Your help in...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi My genes make the problem possible. I have found 3 other people who share my general problem. They all seem to have the "hunter" gene. Why else would the hypoglycemia behave as it does. Why else would eating less sugar/starch/alchol make them feel better. 2 of the people would...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have to urinate. I have had one instance where I had an overwheling urge for about 10 seconds and then my normal maybe I can just go back to sleep. I assume when I had my autoimmune problem it effected the release of adrenaline when I dream. This symptom is not mentioned by the 3...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have presented a detailed account of my trivial to figure out what my problem is in this (word?). The publisher of the Scientific American indicates he will have an article I have written in his magazine (seeing is believing). The "hunter" gene was defined by a weight loss doctor who...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have made a quest to find out what was the problem. I rode over the medical community as they annoyed me by not cooperating in my quest. I found probably a world expert on adrenal problems who had the confidence and the humility to try and help me. He admitted they know little about...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I agree I very likely have some insulin. I disagree as I am not producing more insulin than needed for auxiliary functions. I am not changing (possibly most) of the sugar to fat. My explanation is I have symptoms (don't lose weight without additional restrictions on my diet, feel fine...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I am probably pretty close to a type 1 diabetic on my diet (maybe a little more insulin). Just for your information I have been on a severe Atkins style diet for about 7 years. With my "hunter" gene I have at first lost then gained back weight (I am fat). I am now trying to cut the...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I have no target. I eat a severe Atkins style diet. There is a type 1 diabetic boy (this site reports) who has gone 2 years without insulin with my type diet. With that diet and my "hunter" gene I probably do not produce (maybe a little) insulin. I do not get the severe fatigue...

    What is the expected blood sugar reading if a diabetic uses a severe Atkins diet?

    Hi I am not disappointed. I have a poor (more than 1/2 possible yearly values not taken) but serviceable record of my blood sugar values for the last 8 years. Between 8 and 6 years (no 7 year record) my fasting blood sugar rose from 95 to (think 98? haven't looked recently) in all other...
