Pre-diabetes? Eat more fruits and wholegrains Really? Most grains put blood sugar up. Isuggest eating nutrient dense foods that don’t put up your blood sugar which is NOT the same. In our clinic ā€˜In patients with prediabetes, 93% attained a normal HbA1c’ nutrition.bmj.com/content/3/2/285

If you're interested in reversing type two diabetes, this course is still available and still current. CME is offered for health professionals, but the course is free and accessible to everyone.

Doctors rarely test for fasting insulin. But elevated insulin can be the root cause of: — Weight gain — Fatigue — Brain fog — Diabetes — Heart disease And it often goes completely missed. #ReverseDiabetes #DiabetesSupport #InsulinTruths

To my knowledge, this is the first project of its kind offering ketogenic therapy to kids with bipolar disorder. Please share this far and wide. This project is changing the trajectory of these young peoples' lives.

These individuals are sharing their ketogenic and metabolic strategies and stories of recovery from mental illness to help others. Incredible. Link to THINK+SMART in the thread.

One thing I love about the figure is that it puts in perspective the lipid markers that so many promote as the definitive markers that matter for heart disease. Compare, for example, LDL or Lp(a) to "boring" factors like having diabetes or being overweight. Not even close.

The MAHA Commission report is out! The focus for food policy is to reduce ultra processed foods which are those high in sugar and refined grains, but also, in some places, saturated fats. Research agenda for the future talks about low carbohydrate diets! static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/d…
