Hi People with my genetics (a lot of people from India) do not lose weight on an Atkins diet. I think on such a diet we simulate a type 2 diabetic. I therefore am trying to find out if my theory holds water. The doctor who took over Atkins practice in New York has read some of my theory...

Hi I know of 1 doctor who promotes a low-carb diet as a cure for type 2 diabetes (don't know). In any case I would try a low-carb diet (with skepticism) as a replacement for insulin. If you do both watch out for very low blood sugar. That is the problem. Maybe a very low carb diet would...

Hi As I indicated most people without type 2 diabetes lose weight on a low-carb diet (a lot). I have been on such a diet for over 12 years. My blood fats are fine. My circulation is fine. My age is old. My blood pressure is much improved (controlled with a low dose of vaso-relaxer)...

Hi I have reactive hypoglycemia. I haven't had a bad episode in about 40 years. I live on a low-carb diet. I saw part of a program on the Public Broadcasting System (U.S.). The doctor defined a "hunter" gene as people who did not lose weight on his weight lose diet. I found out...

Hi I do not lose weight on a very low carb diet. I have written that I have been on this weird diet (I mean avoid almost all starch/sugar can't avoid a little) for over 12 years. I do not think people without the "hunter" gene can do this (or does my doctor) since they would continuously...

Hi That is why I wonder if it was a 1 day phenomenon.

Hi I exist on a very low-carb diet. I can do so since I have the "hunter" gene. That means I put out hormones which create insulin resistance most of the time. All of the time with my diet. This means that my fasting blood sugar would almost certainly be very near the low blood sugar for...

Just adding I have written that all (maybe that is a small exageration) type 2 diabetics can control their condition with diet (for most eat my strange diet). If you actually have type 2 diabetes you will not lose weight (without other restrictions) on a low carb diet. I know of 2 doctors...

Hi I figured this out for myself. I am in Winchester Massachusetts (near Boston) U.S. I advertise my web site which goes deply into this (theory?) thru google to health care professionals in the U.S. and India (all women with my gene get gestational diabetes) and yup my gene occurs...

Hi Thanks. I considered a liver dump but still. I do not monitor my blood sugar. If I go off the wagon I get obvious fatigue. I have lived with simulated type 2 diabetes on a very low carb diet for over 12 years. I had undignosed or treated rh for about 50 years. I personally had to...

Hi My primary care physician does not know what is the implied average blood sugar for an H1A1c of 5.3 (% I assume) means. I am under the impression that my fasting blood sugar taken at the same time as 112 (U.S. units) is probably nearly as high or higher than the average blood sugar for...

The "hunter" gene was defined by a doctor on Public Broadcasting System in the U.S. He said such people did not lose weight on his weight lose diet (low carb). He said he found that such people had a glucose tolerance test which rose (slowed its rise) for the 2 hours of the test. Such...

Help… The “hunter” gene was defined by a weight loss doctor (low carb diet) on the Public Broadcasting System in the U.S. as people who did not lose weight on his diet. He explained that such people had a glucose tolerance test where their blood sugar increased for over 2 hours (diagnosed as...

Hi Talk to my cousin. She has been told after pregnancy that from her glucose tolerance test (gtt) she was sure to get diabetes within 2 years (what a bunch of fools). She had the same autoimmune response I got at about the same time as I did in 1957 (virus? she didn't tell anyone for many...

Hi We have RH from 2 different causes. My problem is due to an overshoot from the insulin response. I get this if I eat a lot of sugar/starch/alcohol. Due to my genetics the actual major insulin response is about 3 hours after eating a lot of SSA. When I went to probably the world...

Hi I wrote before I thought. My cousin is the only person I am aware of in my family who has the "hunter" gene. My cousin got my form of reactive hypoglycemia at about the same time I did (virus?). She controlls her blood sugar to prevent our symptoms, particularly in pregnancy. She did...

Hi I have 3 thoughts. People with the standard reative hypoglycemia could end up with very low blood sugar with a low carb diet. Some people have an insulin reaction with much lower blood sugar than is usual might have problems. Some people may overdo the liver changing fat into sugar they...

Hi Thinking about it I guess that people with the standard reactive hypoglycemia might get very low blood sugar episodes with a strict low-carb diet. I also have found out that some people probably start their insulin release with much lower blood sugar than is usually true. They also could...

Hi I am thinking about modifying my statement on my web site from (paraphrase) all type 2 diabetics may be controlled by a very low sugar/starch/alcohol diet to most type 2 diabetics may be controlled by a very low sugar/starch/alcohol diet. I am a nut I only do this form of research and/or...

Hi Explain yourself. I gather that there have been instances where the low carb diet is detrimental but I am not aware of the details. Where is the evidence that most people can not live on a low carb diet if they have the "hunter" gene and/or are type 2 diabetic? Is it a matter of fath...
