Thanks again @Indy51
Do you get notifications when these are published?.. I'm sure I signed up for notifications but don't get any... odd.

I'm subscribed to the channel, but haven't set my profile to receive notifications. I tend to check Youtube at least once a day and they show up as new videos in my subscriptions then.

Apparently the first is up... yay


And it's Dr Zoe Harcombe destroying the Diet Heart hypothesis..

As an aside, seeing Zoe's name reminded me of a member who had issues with her. He (according to forum name. Bio is empty) had issues with a number of things. I couldn't recall seeing his posts lately so I checked his posts. His last one was 7/7/17, the date of my daughter's wedding. Since then I've spent less time on this forum as I've been exploring another health matter. So my not noticing his absence before made sense.

I hope all is well with this member. If not then I wish him well.

Bumping, as I do not want to lose this thread. This is the kind of 'library I was speaking of a little while ago. See you on the other side!

Another one - Dr Ted Naiman on Insulin Resistance:

This was the presentation that finally convinced me that, indeed, I am a T2 Diabetic. The explanation of why some of us are TOFI and some of us are not is so clearly explained that I am paging @Grateful with a view to putting a link into his threads on Thin T2 and perhaps another of his posts pertaining to said.

What I drew from the lecture at the time was that as a Tofi I need to find my PFT but in doing that I am concerned with losing too much weight. Guess I need to find a balance...

Thanks for posting the link, it is a great lecture but I do wish Naiman would slow down his speech a little as it is sometimes hard to follow when hearing impaired.

Thank you very much for this. It is a lot to take in, in one go, but enlightening and I will post a link in the Thin T2 thread.

I hear you. I'm actually on LCLF but recently started losing weight again ... which is OK as long as it does not go too far. At which point the fats will need to be increased.

You don't have to be hearing-impaired! His delivery is very fast. Mind you, I lived in New York City for quite a few years so I really should be accustomed to fast-talkin'....

He is the King of Analogies. So clear a message cannot be ignored. Thanks for posting.

I'm struggling with one aspect of this otherwise excellent talk. That is the bit about fructose and the IR body making the 30% more fructose as opposed to the 3% more. Anyone fancy answering that one for me please?
Where is Ivor when you need him?

The video doesn't explain the why of the ten-fold increase. It only reports its occurrence.
A healthy body converts 3% of carbs into fructose, via the 'polyol pathway'.
A body with both insulin resistance and hyperglycaemia converts 30% of carbs into fructose, greatly increasing LDL and dangerous free radicals, and inflammation.
The scary thing for me is the title of the study
'Direct measurement of polyol pathway activity in the ocular lens' 1985 Diabetes
If they measured this over 30 years ago by looking into people's eyes why weren't we (insert expletive of your choice if so desired) told ?

Thank you, more in depth research is needed methinks.

They may explain why it is just so hard for us to lose weight unless the diet also gets our BG down to near normal levels. (fructose gets converted into fat by the liver.)

But at the end of the day, this sciance does not change anything we allready know "advoid most carbs, and have very little fructose". But I am starting to think vit D tabets may be a good option for anyone with insulin resistance.

Agree on the vitD point but I am bewildered by the seemingly grey area of dosage and of associated suplements i.e vitD or vitD3, added vitK or vitK2 and at what dosages? It is hard to decide which is best.

This one went totally over my head. Perhaps in the future, after the biochemistry degree, I could guess at what he was saying. First step, learn what a macrophage is and what its role is!

Thanks for posting these videos, it's great to have them in one thread.

As her endocrinologist said to my friend, sugar control is NOT the most important part of managing T2. Low carb Breckenridge continued to ignore all the evidence behind that statement.

I think you may like to see evidence put forward by Prof. Tim Noakes, you know Noakes of Sports Science fame?

Macrophages are a specialised type of white blood cell.The name literally means 'big eater' and they go round the body engulfing broken down/worn-out cells but also play a part in immunity principally by 'eating' invading bacteria.
