Diet and Nutrition

[fjlip]

Several people I know have lost weight on protein focused eating and limiting carbs. They eat a lot of fresh veggies with the protein. They are also combining their food properly as a consequence.It definitely works, interested to see if they stay slim and healthy. Wheat and gluten I agree are very bad for insulin spikes and weight gain. A while back a few posts on the evils of wheat, so you decided to try, Cotton, hope you achieve your goal and stay healthy in 2013.
Keep us informed.

No potatoes, fries, bread, rice, donuts, no dairy,
no pasta. Lots and lots of water. Veggies and
protein galore. Lost 40 ibs in 90 days like this.
Never felt better. Carbs are killers cause we dont
physically work hard enough to burn them
anymore. When i was a roughneck i ate carbs
galore and never gained because i actually
worked them off.

WD9. Why would high amounts of Calcium cause
Osteoporosis? I think you may have that
backwards.

Wd-people are doing this to fix heart
disease,epilepsy,depression,anxiety,diabetes,etc,e tc,y
ou really need to watch the videos and get up to
speed on how the body works.

Half of northern europe is on this now,remember the
butter shortage-a direct result of low carb high fat
diet.

Everything you know about diet and nutrition is
wrong.

I'll be at goal in 20 days but i'm not coming off
because my mind and body are operating at a
different level,watch the jeff voleck part of the cruise
videos.

Allfarmer: Could it be that the body is
ridding itself of its calcium via the
kidneys as a result the diet?

[farmaholic]

Cotton: Do you think the high carb diet
is the reason our Native North Americans
have a diabetes issue within their
population? I don't think they had access
to too much starch let alone refined sugar
before Europeans showed up. Their diets
would likely have been high protein and
fat diets. Just a thought.

High amounts of calcium pulled from your
body in your urine means its leaving
your body. That is not a good thing.

I find it strange that anyone thinks
this is healthy yet when i raised my
type I diabetic kid, ketoacidosis (what
cotton is forcefully doing) is
considered life threatening and if
severe requires hospitalization.

For a diabetic kid, it would be a dream
come true not to have to give them
carbohydrates, not to take insulin, not
worry about needles and testing! No
peeing on pH strips to determine if they
are acidodic throwing ketones. But guess
what? They die!

3 months max. Your body can sustain the
damage vs weight loss trade off and get
a start losing weight. I agree. But it
is utterly devastating to your body to
continue going acidodic.

Allfarmer, if you want more info do a
search on hypercalciuria.

Everybody is different but yes i think natives are less
able to process carbs and they are probably
genetically pre-disposed to insulin resistance.

Wd-now you really need to understand this stuff if
you have a child with diabetes.Many doctors are using
this to treat type 2 diabetes.Type 1,yes is at risk of
life threatening,ketoacidosis.But this all centres
around,carbs,insulin,obesity and diabetes.

Doctors now coin the term "diobesity".

Obesity and diabetes go hand in hand-you get fat
from eating to many carbs,spiking your insulin and
the insulin turns the carbs to fat and then you get
diabetes.(nut shell)

Being a fat is what is unhealthy.
