This week I have done a bit of an experiment. Hub and I are both gluten intolerant. I dumped it when my digestion collapsed, and found that the raging diarrhoea and awful stomach pain went away. My restless legs and burning feet also went too. No more IBS or RLS. :D Over the past three...

http://www.naturalnews.com/032717_low-c ... ilure.html Can't quite figure out though why they feel it is dangerous to keep going with it in the long-term. People like the Inuit eat a diet like that all their lives..... It's just fear of the ' scientific unknown' because no one has bothered to...

...it seems to have been taken over by recipe martians from the planet Lowus-Carbohydratus..... I thought I'd been abducted for a minute... Hi everyone! Take me to your leader......

Yes Ken, it might be true, and it might be ok for short term transportation circumstances, but you can't leave the fish in there in the long term. If you go into any pet store worth it's salt :lol: the salt they sell for aquariums is generally pure unrefined sea salt. Either that, or the salt...

Some interesting articles on the role that Gluten and SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth) may play in connection with Diabetes. http://www.celiac.com/articles/21902/1/ ... Page1.html http://www.celiac.com/articles/21898/1/ ... Page1.html https://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/i ...

I just thought it might be an interesting exercise to see how many people who read this thread were given antibiotics at some point prior to acquiring their health problems, weight issues, etc. Diabetes (especially type 2) is often the culmination of a period of other health issues and/or...

I'm sure this has been seen before but I wanted to post an observation. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 113659.htm I was doing some (more) research earlier on SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth), and it occurred to me that perhaps the reason why the bypass reversed the...

Quoted from the Daily Mail today. 'Could coconut fat prevent diabetes? A diet rich in coconut oil could ward off Type 2 diabetes. The oil, used in foods such as margarine, helps prevent insulin resistance. This is where muscle and fat cells stop reacting to insulin, the hormone that helps to...

This is an excerpt from Bruce Fife's book 'Eat fat - Look Thin. The whole lot makes for interesting reading but I thought that the sections on Free Radicals and Oxidisation of fats - especially heated polyunsaturated vegetable oils was very enlightening as was the section on sugars...

I tell you, the more I read about this stuff the more I am amazed. I am ploughing through Bruce Fife's 'Coconut Cures' on Google Books (and will probably buy it). It is fascinating. I had already been fascinated by what I have been reading about it elsewhere, but one thing I picked up on in...

I have been asked by a friend who is not very good at creating or inventing meals, if I could suggest any good cookbooks on low carbing. Bearing in mind that we need to be gluten-free, does anyone have or know of any really good very low-carb but delicious recipe books you could recommend? It...

I thought this was so interesting that it warranted a thread of its own.... http://stanford.wellsphere.com/weight-l ... etes/94841

I have been reading about the connection between Leptin levels and Insulin resistance and it is pretty interesting. Leptin is not something that most people, including Doctors are aware of simply because there is no pill for it! There has been quite a bit of research done on it however...

Thought this was a topic that needs addressing as everyone who loses weight comes across this issue at some point. You get to a stage where it doesn't seem to matter what you do you just can't shift the weight. Fat is a storehouse for toxins. We are surrounded by toxins. We eat, breathe and...

Isn't that amazing. I have tightened up on my carb intake and raised my fat intake and within a week my lifelong craving for chocolate has gone! Makes me think that all these years, it wasn't the actual chocolate my body wanted but the fat content! Not only that but I no longer need to nibble...

This article was in the Daily Mail yesterday.....and is recommended for all, not just diabetics............ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/beaut ... eight.html

Well, I have upped my fat intake now for about a week, was already pretty low-carb but have tightened up on that too, had a day with a rather unpleasant metallic taste which went after I 'eliminated' for Wales, but now I am experiencing some paler, floaty and fatty stools which may be indicative...
