    And so it begins: Eat less meat or we’ll make you.

    Well, I expressed what seems to be a minority opinion and I think it is quite interesting that some (but not all, fairs fair) of the responses to it actually seem to illustrate my point far more vividly than I ever could have done so myself. Is it really such a big ask that the majority be...

    And so it begins: Eat less meat or we’ll make you.

    As I said in my earlier post I do understand that there are very good reasons for many people following a meat based LCHF lifestyle, I have no issues with that. What I was trying to say is that the endless exchanges about it are having a polarizing effect. I had to look up the TKO acronym as...

    And so it begins: Eat less meat or we’ll make you.

    And so it begins: again. Yet another thread devoted to the topic of whether or not meat will be on the menu sometime in the future. I can completely understand why this topic is of such importance to many people, if you love your meat then it is perfectly understandable that you would be upset...

    Will a diabetes clinical psychologist help?

    If you were to ask me personally then I would say look for a counsellor/psychotherapist, as a psychologist is not necessarily a counsellor or psychotherapist but can sometimes be the same thing depending on their training. Either way, counselling is a deeply rewarding experience! It can be...

    Keto/low carb is making me ill

    Hi it sounds like you have done your homework and are totally onboard with the need to reduce your carbohydrate consumption but are having difficulty with integrating this into everyday cooking and family life. In response I would ask, do you remember when you first learned to cook? Maybe when...

    1980’s TV Soaps & Drama - Low-fat Brainwashing Begins

    I knew the first two quotes were from Life of Brian and the Meaning of life but I thought the parrot sketch was from the flying circus. It's so long since I watched any MP i can't really remember. Anyway I was just being playful, I loved Monty Python and Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes.for that...

    1980’s TV Soaps & Drama - Low-fat Brainwashing Begins

    I agree I think society does influence tv, past and present, no money to made in tv no one is interested in. I also think the reverse is true also tv does influence society, don't get me started on the Kardashian's! And I think also influences what we think the past was like, did you ever see...

    Prof Taylor on the subject of Reversal.

    Apologies for the confusion @Mbaker I meant that all roads converge on the issue of reversal being conditional upon maintaining your diet/lifestyle whatever that may be.

    Prof Taylor on the subject of Reversal.

    Thanks @Oldvatr you're a gent. And yes I agree entirely that reversal is indeed an emotive subject and that there are no magic bullets or holy grail. I do think that if someone is Type2 and armed with a sound understanding of the pros and cons, and willing to keep an open mind then it is...

    Prof Taylor on the subject of Reversal.

    That's particularly interesting @Brunneria I had no idea there were so many different forms of diabetes. There really is nothing straightforward about diabetes is there? No wonder there are so many different and conflicting points of view.

    Prof Taylor on the subject of Reversal.

    Hi all, some really interesting and very valid points of view. Though just to clarify i wasn't advocating or trying to promote Prof Taylor's views or advice. Quite simply I'm not enough of a scientist to know how valid it all is. I just thought that it may be of interest to some people. Please...

    Life Without Diabetes

    Hi @t1234 , I saw your question about Kee diet shakes on another thread but thought it more appropriate to answer here. I've no idea about Kee meal replacement myself but from Prof Taylor i understood that any meal replacement brand will work as long it within the specified calorie range and is...

    Prof Taylor on the subject of Reversal.

    From perusing the forums here I have noticed that a number of people have asked questions about the subject of remission/reversal and weight loss. I recently read the new book out by Prof Roy Taylor which discusses these issues at length and thought it might be useful to some people to relay...

    Best not eat them then @Lamont D if you want to "live long and prosper!" I'm sorry I just saw your profile page and i couldn't help myself. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few! :):):)

    Listerine

    they do in Superdrug, I saw it only a few days ago. There's probably precious little actual coconut oil in it though I'd wager.

    Listerine

    Apologies @JohnEGreen did not mean to imply anything about your teeth. I know very little about you of course but from the thoughtful intelligent things you write here, in my minds eye I see you as a fine and charming gentleman, with excellent teeth of course! :)
