[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2316666, member: 85785"] I have dealt with dieticians, doctors, dsns and specialist endocrinologist who have always been reluctant for me to be in ketosis, only one specialist and one dietician who advised me about this site. Every other medical professionals have advised me I need to eat complex carbs or the equivalent because we need a certain amount of carbs derived glucose to keep clear brain function. We need the fibre from grains and other starchy vegetables. We are told to eat low fat, do not eat saturated fats. Count your calories and eat three square meals a day and have good healthy cereal for breakfast or porridge because it is a super f food. And so on! I followed this dietary advice for over a decade and it was killing me. I am carb intolerant, so are many T2s. It is very difficult to lose good weight if you are eating too many carbs. Portion size and how much food you actually need. For every carb there is an alternative. The best thing I ever did was go into ketosis. It has been a revelation, my health until recently has been very good for a man of my age and condition. The last thing I will advise is a professional in medicine has been taught by those who follow the dictates of the policy of advice which the NHS is based. The general practitioners are few and far between that understand diabetes, metabolism issues and rare cases of hypoglycaemia. Few understand that the endocrine system is so individual that the treatment should be tailored to you. How meds are used and the pitfalls of bad dietary advice, how T2 diabetes can be controlled with and by diabetics who have reversed their health. Exercise is important but not as much as food. There is a lot of long distance athletes in many sports that are Keto adapted. There are many in sports that use ketosis in the off season to lose weight and keep in shape. Keep safe [/QUOTE]
