    Nurse advises vegan diet not healthy

    That sounds like a formatting code that a browser doesn't know what to do with. I tried keto vegan a few times but found it too restrictive, so now I stick to keeping the carbs low. Pulses/lentils/grains etc with the carb load balanced by the insoluble fibre. I've also had success with...

    Nurse advises vegan diet not healthy

    Basically talking bunkum - (I no longer suffer fools gladly or otherwise) Protein Consuming enough protein is a concern for many new vegans. However, it may not be as big a problem as we anticipate. Most of us eat far more protein than our body requires, and there are plenty of vegan foods which...

    Have any other low carbers quit dairy and noticed a big difference?

    I did LC with ocassional Keto for about 6 months after going vegetarian. My egg and dairy intake was quite high, especially cheese. I lost some weight but it was not consistent, probably about 1 stone over that period. However, in July I went fully vegan and gave up dairy and eggs. I still...

    Cutting inappropriate blood glucose self-monitoring ‘could save NHS £20m’

    I for one will not be buying test strips whilst drug addicts are prescribed methadone. That's another saving that can be made to as that IS a self - inflicted condition.

    Called into the office for using my insulin in staffroom

    OR maybe the other colleagues can vacate the room whilst you take your meds. That seems to be quite fair.
