[__ Science __ ] Sugar

It's about blood sugar levels...and really reducing your carbohydrate intake so that your body will use the stored carbs in your liver (and other locations) and begin using the other types of insulin.

It actually works. I was skeptical myself as it went against everything I've ever heard. But my wife has lost over 40 pounds on this diet. Her electrolyte levels and magnesium have to be supplimented but those things aren't difficult.

She first had to reevaluate her relationship with food before she started this diet. She did a Bible study called "Revelation Wellness".
Which eventually led her to the intermittent fasting and this diet. (They don't promote any diet in the Bible study)
The Bible study actually showed my wife her attitude about food and exercise wasn't healthy. And considering that my wife is highly educated and brilliant...that was doing something. I really recommend the Revelation Wellness study for women.

I'm not saying that an underweight person who is diabetic will benefit from this...but others who have weight issues and diabetes will. Everyone is unique in endocrine system. I need a high carb, low fat, and low protein diet... and I drop weight like a rock. My wife does the reverse and she drops it like a rock.

It's really weird in our house.

I have fought the battle of the bulge ,my reading up on this it's not meant to be a lifestyle diet forever.

The body, will adjust and gain that weight again .constant battle imho

Try the Revelation Wellness study...then get back to us on this. It ain't exactly what you think it is.

My wife just got her test results back.
Her A1C levels are at 5.9%. She has never had one below a 7 before.

She takes less than 12 units of mealtime insulin now. She was at over 30 units per meal.

I'm thinking that the diet is working.

It's like a switch was thrown in her metabolism.

We are estatic. This is changing her life and energy levels.

Very few have kept the weught off.
Its take the time ,discipline to keep a healthy diet .

I know a man who weighed 300 lbs lost it to join the army guard and to train for SF he slept in mopp4 gears in the desert heat.

He got out ,gained some weight back . He was under weight specs in the guard and a pt stud.you cant be in the sf and last by meeting the standard.

He lost that weight in one year. Not many jobs can take your pay ,end your career over health maintainance.
