[QUOTE="ert, post: 2281651, member: 504712"] Only [USER=496333]@Jim Lahey[/USER] and [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER]? Please add my name to your list. Anyone with a glucometer can see the relevance and wisdom of a low carbohydrate diet in the face of metabolic syndrome. My Diabetes OCDEM Specialist and GP agree with this statement but suggest they can't in the UK tell people what to eat, as it's not socially acceptable. Think of the medical breakthroughs that were initially ridiculed or rejected. Antiseptic handwashing. Ignaz Semmelweis may be the best-known example of a physician ridiculed for an idea that is now accepted as common sense. Helicobacter pylori. This is how Dr Barry Marshall, a gastroenterologist from Western Australia, described his efforts in the mid-1980s to convince the medical establishment that ulcers were caused by bacteria and not by stress, spicy foods, and too much acid, as conventional medical wisdom held at the time. Infectious proteins. When neurologist Stanley Prusiner insisted that mad cow disease and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease are caused not by viruses, bacteria, or fungi but by infectious proteins, which he dubbed "prions" in 1982, even he admitted that the idea was "clearly heretical." Not eating carbohydrates when your body can't process them. It's just a matter of time. As not to continue this apparent hijacking of 'are we returning to normal too quickly', I will add: we are. I'm remaining in lockdown, except for dog walking, which I find uplifting on isolated Woodlands Trust walks. [/QUOTE]
