[QUOTE="torchman2, post: 1944321, member: 496570"] High creatinine can be a sing of thyroid issues. Would suggest you get a full thyroid panel (total T3, total T4, TSH, free t3/t4). Everything is linked, body "diseases" are created by the whole environment, and often you will get multiple issues from the same problematic inputs. LC or VLC, and fasting, can worsen thyroid and liver issues. Thyroid performance highly relates to glucose control. This should show you the way forward. From looking at posts on the forum, most people go straight from "I eat whatever I want, whenever I want" and then go as extreme as possible in the other direction. So they go from excessive calorie intake, possibly high alcohol intake, and days where they will eat 3000+ calories, with some days eating 1500 calories, and then move quickly to: - reduced calories - reduced carbs - increased protein - reduced alcohol - consistent amount of food and timings - increased light exercise The carbs are just one part of it. If regular, moderate meals worked for you, then try that approach. Eat smaller meals (less insulin required), with a good balance of fat, protein and carbs, and see if that works for you. Eat at the same time each day, and eat the same amount of calories (roughly) per day. If you eat more carbs, eat them in slower digesting form. Eg fruit instead of juice, roasted root veg instead of soda/ice cream. Slow release of glucose/fructose is much better than fast release, like a pastry with added sugar. [/QUOTE]
