Sits back an looks a bit smug but sad for those who think I am the crazy one for decrying this foul BigPharma con.

Jim thanks for the links. Great that is is audio cause I can be active (repainting the house during this 'Spring/Summer break) whilst listening.

It is 61g per 100 (61%) but 3,8 g per slice

I am not a cardiologist either but I have researched the effect of , originally plant Phytosterols, then synthetic statins for 30 years. Having read research papers avidly and had discussions with many leading cardiologists on the subject I think I have a reasonable grasp of the problem...

Balderdash! Statins can not mitigate plaque build up in arteries so there is never a need for Statins except to further line the pockets of Big Pharma shareholders. Your wife is lucky to have a good supply of cholesterol as one of the few positive facts to come out of all the trials is that...

Whats in the 'hot sauce'?

I got to stop reading about Statins! It's making me so angry my cholesterol goes though the roof, well it might be but seeing I have never had it tested I can only do the same as most trials that have tried to say it is a CAUSE of heart problems -make up the results. There I go up another notch...

Would love to read that If is would get past our moderators !!!

If I could get past your visa system I would join you in a shot, bush fires included for a plentiful supply of beef and lamb.

This would be important as 'in my opinion' almost all of the studies have reported false, inaccurate or biased results. the other studies not giving any of the required results are hidden. Of course there is also the slight problem that even if LDL particle numbers are best indicators for...

In my opinion the best way to get the number down is to rub out the old result and write a lower figure in. That's how much the results are worth. I can 'play' my cholesterol levels like a bagpipe- if I want them higher I stress myself, get angry or rant on about Big Pharma. If I want them...

I am not sure I would call either Stevia or Monk fruit Sugar 'fake sugars' no more so than say maple syrup is fake sugar. Not fully understanding why a product that stimulates insulin secretion would cause a pancreas which has to work overtime to make insulin to need to work harder instead...

Have you tried Monk Fruit Sugar (the pure form not cut with ethryitol), It cost a fortune but is so sweet a light dusting is enough to give a very sweet taste and it is a potent anti-oxidant as a great bonus.

Yea! we have a mince Connoisseur who knows, apart from price, why there is different amounts of fat in Beef mince. I have been buying mince for many many years and only found this out about a year ago.

You hit the nail right on the head! No remission just suppression.

Seeing the great work members here have done changing perceptions and getting LCHF recognised by the NHS 'main players' maybe we could get a more accurate terminology accepted as well. I also agree with you that reading should be below pre-diabetic for at least 12 months before it's called...

Sorry missed this post when I replied about the term 'remission' v 'suppression' but it is exactly the point I was making. I am also 'under very good control' and suppressing the symptoms of T2 as long as I keep my lifestyle under control. Over Christmas I checked my Bg reading before and...

Those figures give you approx 1250 Cal a day which is a good reason to loose 45 lbs in 12 months. For me this is my only way of long term weight loss eating Low Carb Low Cal and staving off hunger with extra fats. BUT I have to keep my cal intake to 1250 or lower. I lost 45 lb in 20 weeks...

Life is sure not fair to those of us 'enlightened' folk who were Keto for years to control weight but who never the less became T2. I was on a keto lifestyle in the mid 2000's but my Bg was rampant by 2011 due I believe to letting my carb intake get out of hand. Keto / LCHF keeps me 'normal'...

I have a problem with the term 'remission' thinking 'suppression' is more accurate. I do not believe that I am (Hb1Ac 39 for 2 years on keto/ LCHF) in remission but that my lifestyle is suppressing my T2 symptoms. The reason for this? Eat a few high carb meals (75gm+) and my Bg rockets...
