Ha no prob Guzzler - I mostly get abuse (from high-carbers, vegetarians and pharma goons - so any respite is welcome...! :-)

Thx Biggles ! Couple more detailed vids above... :-)

Hi Guzzler - here's some more on the different types including TOFI : And here's the detailed version: Best Ivor

Now yer talkin Roy....

Saturated fat can certainly be a problem. But only in the context of excessive carbohydrate ingestion. The distinction is, well, kinda crucial.

Not silly. Weight loss will improve Insulin Sensitivity and have many other beneficial effects. Technically you do not need to do low carb - simply starving yourself in a controlled manner on a disgusting low fat diet will ultimately drop your insulin levels also. The point is that a...

As Lucy says, damaged can be reversed/ halted and made stable. Coranary artery disease/calcification from hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia is an example - even with a high score and very high risk, if the progression is halted through diet change your risk plummets to that of a person with a...

Ah now Tuatura - I gorge on delicious fatty lamb and vegetables, juicy ribeye steaks, fine cheeses, olives, nuts and pate. I I even enjoy dark chocolate with whipped double-fat cream. Of course I guzzle plenty of strong red wine - I'm practically a gourmand in a sense. But I minimize that...

Wow Sunny you're fast on the draw - you're obviously not too busy - get and do your homework now, there's a good gal ;)

Thanks Roy - also, any lover of the insightful Jason Fung is a friend of mine :-)

Don't leave all your homework 'til late on Sunday night now Sunny ! No replies on Sheldon, so I guess it's just you... :-)

Final reference - I think this group have done a great job summarising the data around low carb strategy for T2D management - covering the glycaemic improvement aspects, whatever about my technical beliefs around insulin...perhaps it's best for people to just ponder this collection of data...

I'll leave you to re-read, and yes it was focussed on NIDDM in fairness; I didn't realise this was a very T1-centric thread (95% of diabetes sufferers are T2, and it's the one with epidemic status, so that's where I tend to gravitate). Recent work has identified that SMC's are far more involved...

Ah Phoenix, I am not appealing to their authority, merely their data to date - I found Unger's data on glucagon particularly fascinating is all, so I shared it. The Hall study you mention was tragically misinterpreted - it set out to isolate insulin, but the calorie restriction dropped the...

:-) I thought you'd be more interested in the references - they're down at the bottom of the quote list....!

I'll wrap up our chat with a reference-based pressie :-) http://highsteaks.com/science-diabetes-vs-low-carb-keto-diets/

Thx Tim - here's a bauble for you - lots of references ! http://highsteaks.com/science-diabetes-vs-low-carb-keto-diets/

Hi guys Youi can see my interview with Joe just before he turned 95 in August - enjoy ! A brief summary of Kraft's oeuvre is here: http://www.thefatemperor.com/blog/2015/9/7/kraft-summary-re-post-for-those-who-missed-it Ivor

Tim The key point of Kraft's work is not to estimate the population level of diabetes - for that you would need to do his test on a random population sample for sure. The point of the work is that it compares the glucose-based diagnostic power against the insulin-response based diagnostic...
