[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 40615, member: 8110"] Guys guys! Lysis means splitting, so any process called "*******lysis", involves something being split, as in "analysis" Gluconeogenesis, means [u]making [/u]glucose new ( neo) from smaller molecule fragments. I'm not writing out the whole pathway. I had enough of that 40 odd years ago, when I got my degree and I'm sure some of the theories have changed. It's enough that we don't NEED carbs and can chose to eat them if we wish to. Starches in particular are problematic. We can't digesst them if they are not cooked or processed and the foods that contain most of our starches are often toxic, as in green potato or raw beans or raw cereals. Why anyone ever started to eat those things is a mystery. A zero carb diet has been tried and found to be safe. However, It's difficult to do, Pretty much only fatty mea is eaten. All veggies have some carbs.Bernsein advocates 30carbs per day. Atkins, only 20 for diabetic control. Even that isn't easy. For a newbie, just leaving out the sugars and cutting back on the starchy stuff is probably enought to get to grips with. And is likely to be a drastic drop in carbs. Then they have to geet used to the idea that fat isn't the enemy and that on this forum is more knowldge than the average GP or DSN has. [/QUOTE]
