Here are new fantastic stories from the people who’ve taken the challenge: Feedback I am a 68 year old woman living in Canada. I have had significant weight issues for about 20 years. I did a diet related to gluten and dairy and allergy issues five years ago and lost 30 pounds (14 kg). Then I was just holding. I found the challenge easy to step into. And have lost 4 pounds (2 kg). And 1.5 inches (4 cm) around the waist. I feel full and satisfied. The recipes are for the most part very delicious. I have had a little difficulty with menus as I cannot have dairy and eat eggs sparingly and no pork due to allergies. Over the years, I have learned substitutions… Hopefully, I can continue. I started this diet on recommendation from my doctor due to lab work...

Why does blood sugar increase during a fast?

And can keto and intermittent fasting help reverse thyroid disease (Hashimoto’s)? It’s time for this week’s Q&A about intermittent fasting and low carb with Dr. Jason Fung: Increasing blood sugar when fasting Why does my blood sugar level increase from 86 to 112 mg/dl (4.8 – 6.2 mmol/L) when I do a 20-hour fast?

“Tons of sugar and limited nutrients” – why juice is not healthy

More and more health organizations have realized that sugar and soda are major culprits in the development of obesity and type 2 diabetes. But for some reason fruit juice has escaped blame, in spite of its great sugar content and lack of nutrients. It’s time to stop viewing fruit juice as healthy. As the author of this NYT article writes: “We doubt you’d take a multivitamin if it contained 10 teaspoons of sugar.” The New York Times: Seriously, juice is not healthy Sugar The problem with sugar50:01Is it fat or sugar that has triggered the unprecedented epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease?
