[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2025161, member: 196898"] If it walks like one, and sounds like one, then it probably is. My wife has a friend who also sells supplements, and she is heavily promoting the WFPB diet for curing diabetes, Parkinsons. and cancer, so is IMHO a dangerous person to follow. Not saying Patrick is in the same boat since I have not come across him in any context. I personally did flip between keto and LCHF for a while, and I had it down to a fine art, I found I could add or leave out a second slice of toast in my breakfast to switch in and out. I got bored with the confines of ultra low carb in the end. It did remove some IR and I did become a bit more carb tolerant so I opted for the Pioppi diet instead which suits me better. I have recently gone into Remission after 2 years of LCHF and have dropped my diabetic medication, apart from some Metformin which I take for cardio vascular support. I have been using fasting intermittently, and that seems to have helped. since it has the effect of possibly inducing fat burning for a while so reducing my IR gradually, I found I did not need to switch in and out of keto since I did not seem to benefit from the exercise. However, I do not think it would be a problem for anyone wanting to try it so long as you adjust your medication as necessary, and keep testing those sugars. [/QUOTE]
