What a fabulous vid. Thanks! As a heart patient with a pacemaker and bypass surgery everything in the vid is 100% correct, at least in my case.

[@JeffryGerberMD]

Thanks Manny and best of health

And yet in the UK this would be quackery. I was told only today by an NHS doctor a 'normal' insulin range at 2hrs post glucose challenge was 30-110!!!! Who could ever be diagnosed insulin resistant with norms like that...

Really great explanations, this will be shared in my Keto group! Thank you.

Nice job. We met at Dr Ali's office / Low Carb Houston. I was on the fasting team. Hope Ivor is doing well. He sure is informed on the vy rus.

Hey Peter. I remember meeting!

Hello Jeffry, familial hypercholesterolemia runs in my family(the less severe version) and there is not a lot of information on this in combination with a keto-diet out there. Most sources recommends against it, what's your experience with patients with this condition going on a keto-diet?

Jeffrey there are those that don’t understand that as you have demonstrated, balance is a little bit of both, after protein then low starch carbs and only enough fat to satisfy. I still see those who eat very high fat meals and say they are on a Ketogenic diet. Yes fat will be a higher percentage calorie per calorie, than protein and carbs but just enough to cause satiety. There is no reason to hit some fat threshold if your satisfied. Stop pounding fat. I have become discouraged with supposedly low carb groups on FB that are only interested in creating dessert. They talk like addicts. If you have ever worked in a hospital, the break room is packed full of obese nurses ooohing and aweing over the latest highly processed dessert that patients gift them. They talk about these items similarly to junkies. And the majority of the nurses are obese and many morbidly obese. Hopelessly addicted.

[@petercyr3508]

Disagree the second nutritional priority is carbs!! There are no essential carbs. Your liver makes all the glucose you need. If you are fat adapted you wont overeat fat. If you eat carbs you wont be fat adapted. The best way for those nurses to get over their carb addiction is to eat plenty of good fat and no carbs at least at first. The only carbs I eat are incidental with my non starchy veggies.

[@monicaambs]

@@petercyr3508 Not true. With a background and history of overeating, even I overeat on occasion. Emotional eating is a thing. I don’t make or keep fat bombs around for this very reason, because I can’t stop until they are gone. I no longer want to go back to being obese. I was off and on obese for 62 years until my lifestyle changed. I learned a lot along the way. Fat (fat bombs) can be just as addictive as carbs (donuts).

i hope vegans can be vegans without adding politics to it by trying to take away meat from me.
