LOL ... finally found a good reason for my dentures ... made my day ;)

I believe the dr. mosley BBC trial compared malt vinegar with apple cider vinegar and found the malt vinegar had no effect ... if this helps?

I hate the smell and taste of acv with passion ... however I found taking it in hot water with a pinch of cinnamon made it at least swallowable ... let's hope the cinnamon does not negate the good effects of the vinegar :***:

Great links ... thank you very much.

Excellent post ... thanks.

Coincidentally, your avatar buddy Jason Fung highly recommends vinegar - in his words "imperative to get vinegar in your diet" - he mentioned apple cider vinegar and red wine vinegar - mainly to improve insulin sensitivity. Thanks to him I have now started on the two tablespoons in water at...

That's the spirit!

I was much luckier than thou ... I found this site first, and stopped searching :)

Quick update, very pleased to have lost another 2 pounds 8 oz on my makee-learnee lchf diet as of today (Sunday weigh-in after two weeks on diet) This post is to express sincere gratitude to this forum, the assistance and kindness I have received here have been amazing, and the amount I have...

Thanks for this thread, big help to me too. Funnily enough, I have just been reading a book about sleep (to see if I could get some) and magnesium oil is highly recommended, but only the spray and rub in type, not tablets (deemed to be unreliable and too much absorbed in stomach), I was just...

Cool avatar :)

So right! My wife and I are always stunned by the number of, to be blunt, fat, doctors and nurses we meet in the local surgery and the local hospital, also, as you say, the trash food on offer, even sold in machines in the corridors! Hardly a good advertisement for the NHS low fat diet, still...

Curiosity made me look it up ... thanks for that ... always nice to learnsomething new :) This expression dates from the mid-1800s, when in a poker game a piece of buckshot or another object was passed around to remind a player that he was the next dealer. It acquired its present meaning by...

Well done for speaking up at the course ... I felt the same at my course, but, sadly, I did not speak up as the presenters were very nice and hard working, and I did not want to seem ungentlemanly ... now, looking back at those other people being so badly advised, I really wish I had at least...

My backward surgery does not put results online, however they are very co-operative about giving you a printed test result if you ask for it ... this is a great way of getting started, and gives you a basis for research. Best wishes.

My wife and I were interested in a recent newspaper story about Roy Taylor and his diet using food shakes (and vegetables) ... seems to me as a suspicious layman to be a calories in - calories out diet, with short term good effects, however so far no proven long term effects eg "when you are...

Speaking of the good old bacon and egg choice for breakfast :) what is the best medium for frying same? My wife and I are wavering between butter, lard or rapeseed oil Total transparency, she no like lard, I no like rapeseed oil, but the real question is, which is better for you? Any advice...

I too suffer from (1) can't get off to sleep and/or (2) wake at 0200 - 0300 and can't get back to sleep ... tried lots of suggested remedies without success ... I found the best solution for both (1) and (2) is not to lie in bed stressing because you can't sleep, but get up and do something...

Many thanks to all who responded, given me much food for thought. I do appreciate your kindness ... Basically I became enthused about the suggestion of measuring insulin as well as/ more important than BG, and the idea of shadow measuring insulin using ketones as a possible alternative was...

my own thoughts also ... didn't know about the warning ... thanks ... now debating whether to bring it up at the next Diabetes Clinic eg [my mini stroke was brought on by another medication I had been taking for years ... when I expressed discontent at this event, after I got them to admit it...
