    A year without a Cappuccino

    One thing I miss on the Keto diet is I am not allowed to touch milk. Is there any type of milk alternative that can be expanded like normal milk?

    If you don't mind nuts I recommend blending a few Brazil nuts, a teaspoon of Rock Salt, half teaspoon of Lemon juice some Cacao together. This should be used as your pain killer. Brazil nuts are packed with selenium which will help you sleep. Rock Salt will help you keep your electrolyte level...

    hba1c down to 33. Thanks Keto!

    Would you agree that I need to get my hba1c below 32 to get out of the pre-diabetic window? I had this measure around a time when I was eating Keto-Junk food. I've now gone back to the standard meat and leafy greens and my fasting blood glucose is around 4.3 when I wake up in the morning...

    Blood Glucose Spike

    Tried the foods and BG didn't go past 7 after 2 hours. However I didn't enjoy it. Carb-based food just tastes so sweet and artificial. Its disgusting. No wonder it screwed me up. I still can't believe I use to drink Cola and eat tons of Deli Mayo Sandwiches ugh!! Like pouring golden syrup into...

    Blood Glucose Spike

    True but its been like 6 months since I touched carbs.Just testing a few foods then switching back to Keto. I don't exactly like putting this stuff in my body but I don't exactly have the luxury of a glucose intolerance test because the NHS is broke in my area.

    Has anyone done well going vegan?

    You can go Vegan Keto to tackle type 2 or pre-diabetes but it is more difficult than a sfandard Keto diet and you have to supplement yourself with various vitamin tablets. Its also very expensive and the vast majority of Vegan Keto protein & fat are sourced from plants which grow in the...

    My question Is a spike of blood glucose up to 7.5 mmol after 30 mins of a meal anything to worry about? I was told I was out of the pre-diabetic danger soon few months ago but just want to make sure I'm ok. 1 hour after BG went to 5.8 mmol/l then 2 hour later BG went to 5.7 mmol/l. My BG is...
