“Low-carb diet may reduce diabetes risk independent of weight loss”
IS THE SKY BLUE?
Look, pretty much every informed American now understands the going low-carb is healthy, and the lower the better (although going below 10 grams a day might be a bit too much).
Oh, yea, that is everyone EXCEPT the medical profession. They, pretty much, think you’re a nutcase if you tell them that you’re severely limiting carbs.
My wife has cancer (and is doing very well, thank you). I told her doctors we were eating very low carb, to deprive the cancer of glucose. Some of them objected, saying “But your brain runs on glucose.”
I was on the phone with one of them when she said that. I kind of lost it and said “Are you aware of the 1967 study by George Cahill, where he fasted volunteers for 40 days and determined the brain was running on 67% ketones?”. There was silence on the phone for several seconds, then she said “I have to get back to work.”
And there’s more. Your body makes about 80g of glucose per day, even in extended fasts or starvation.
We are doing hyperbaric oxygen therapy. It’s not FDA approved to treat cancer, so it’s out of pocket, but not unreasonable. About $100 per 90 minute session.
I made a video of it last week: (Shirley HBOT):

Not true at all. I recommend you read The Starch Solution by Dr John McDougall, The End of Diabetes by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, and watch What the Health on Nexflix.
The majority of your calories should come from whole food carbs. The healthiest diet is low-fat, low protein, high carb and high starch.
