[QUOTE="Phub, post: 1748643, member: 135068"] Unfortunately I have had quite a few spells in hospital since my sixties, both for myself and my wife. I am dismayed when I see so many NHS staff who are clearly obese, among them people who tell me my BMI (Which I think is a load of Bovine Manure.) is too high. It makes we wonder whether or not the NHS will ever admit to the truth on diet; because I am sure they do know the truth. I detest this 'eat healthily' chant, and this nutritionist who is accusing someone of falsifying their readings should be struck off. He is obviously a brainwashed fool, who blindly accepts conventional wisdom, without asking why the 'patient' is claiming these readings. The fool needs re-educating, but sadly that won't happen will it? The establishment either doesn't have a clue, or there is a disgusting conspiracy going on. I suspect the latter, with the younger doctors and consultants in ignorance of the truth about diet. All for the benefit of 'Big-Food' and 'Big-Pharma'. I have one answer for them when they advise me to 'eat healthily'. My reply is, 'I do eat healthily and that's why I have shed almost four stones since Sept/October 2017.' I feel fine and I don't care what these people tell me. (As long as they don't insult me.} When I shop for food I buy only what was once running around, flying around or swimming in the seas. As for Carbs I stay with greens, that can be picked from a bush or a tree, and the only fruit I eat are berries of whatever species I can get. I don't drink just water, of course, although I suspect I should do that. That's all that wild animals get, and they seem to manage. But I don't think I will give up my one cup of coffee per day! My blood sugar readings are now rarely above 7.5, and after conducting my own fasting reading, my readings regain normality after about 1 hour. I have never felt better since my forties. I still have some way to go (I am 17 stones 10lbs) but I am getting there. Instead of castigating me for not eating whole-grain bread, and brown rice, I think my Doctor should ask me how I did it. After all he knows my readings as well as me. But has he remarked on it? Not on your life. My one regret is I can't stomach the taste and texture of avocado pears. It must be like eating tallow candles! [/QUOTE]
