Mushroom risotto.

I'm not picking on you specifically J72FIT but this is a classic strawman argument where someone introduces an exaggerated claim that no one made, then dismisses it to make their own position seem more reasonable. It’s not a miracle, but it’s not trivial either. Also in order to actually have a conversation there must be a…

Most omega 6's are in processed and ultra processed foods and seed oil. Remove these and reducing them greatly replacing them with grass fed and organic meats will generally lead to better overall health and reduced inflammation, and joint pain reduction is quite common when engaged in this particular dietary change. While…

Remove them.

And the status quo remains intact. IF introduces nonlinear dynamics, like hormonal shifts, circadian rhythm, autophagy that facilitates change within the body and that threatens the simplicity of people that "count calories" Does weight lose occur only in a calorie deficit, yes, which describes quite well the forest and…

For calorie counters it's always about calories. The problem is the more a person educates themselves about human nutrition the less important calories become. If a person was to actually investigate IF they would soon learn it has nothing to do with calories, it's about triggering metabolic and cellular regeneration…

Pan fried halibut over confit shallots and leeks fortified with a lobster cream sauce on basmati rice.

Is it not a lifetime agenda? If a person stops recording their caloric intake even at maintenance do they not gain weight and if they didn't gain weight then why would someone do it. Feeling like your depriving yourself or feeling like it takes up too much time in your day and always feeling it's a chore is not something I…

Intermittent fasting has absolutely nothing to do with weight loss, although weight loss does occurs quite frequently and if someone was to connect those dots, IF might actually be helpful as opposed to, oh, it doesn't work and it's just a fad and it's about calories. 😁

The USDA avoids committing to specific guidelines for monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats because the science is too nuanced, the messaging too complex, and making policy is difficult considering there's mono and poly fats in nuts and pastry. Both mono ands poly fats also contain the omega's and too much of one and…

There's a myriad of health benefits from fasting and here's a link that people might find interesting from "Health & Wellness Canada".

Yeah, stage 3 CKD is a diagnostic blind spot buried under louder and other comorbidities like diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. Apparently 90% of people with CKD didn't know they had it which leaves only 10% that are actually diagnosed and tested. Also roughly 1 in 2 patients with stage 4 CKD are unaware, and 1 in 3…

Prioritize foods that are whole and considered unprocessed with people focusing on protein tend to plan meals, read labels, and track intake, behaviors linked to better overall diet quality which generally equate to better overall health including less kidney dysfunction considering the worst possible scenario for…

Well, it's more nuanced that just do this and everything is better. More fiber can potentially increase diverticulitis and may not necessarily reduce polyps depending on the source material you put in your mouth. I would suggest getting another opinion or two.

That's basically describing a ketogenic diet although there's a lot more to it than just greens when it comes to plant food. Most people can't do it, they miss eating starchy carbs too much and can't eat enough fat. If most of your weight gain is in the stomach area as you say, that is an indication of a higher carb diet,…

Chicken Francese

Brodo with tortellini and some parmigiana reggiano.

Well, almost all humans have a predisposition to an insulin reaction that is then elevated by environmental factors to meet the criteria which represents insulin resistance and prediabetes. There’s compelling paleoanthropological and evolutionary evidence suggesting that humans have a built-in predisposition for insulin…

I agree with most of what you said but don't agree with the hereditary hypothesis/theory aspect. All humans have a predisposition but we don inherit the disease. For example the prevalence of diabetes in the 1930's and 40's was around 0.5% of the adult population in the US, with a larger percentage living rural. Today…

Beef carpaccio with a baby arugula, red onion, basil and grated parm and a decent aged balsamic.

Frittata.

Most of what I have to say around here is generally ignored and even though it didn't meet your idea of acceptable speech, I just want to thank you for engaging anyway. I did it again, didn't I. Ciao

Facts don't care about your feelings. There is a difference between emergency treatment protocols and long-term metabolic strategy where if not addressed properly leads to additional medication including injections especially if those same authorities believe diabetes is a progressive disease with no cure. Gummy bears are…

No, it's not funny and I did say that it's recommended to consume fast absorbing sugar. lol.

If your overweight you won't starve, it's science.

Consuming the food that actually contributes the most to hypoglycemia is exactly what the ADA says to do, so consume those fast absorbing sugars but hopefully not enough to put you into another hypoglycemic event, fingers crossed.😉

Lamb ragu with pappardelle

Heirloom tomato and Burrata with toasted pine nuts, shallot, garlic, basil, chive and evoo and grilled focaccia to soak up the juices.

I consume around 70% of my calories from fat so yes I'm always aware of my fat consumption, making sure I'm getting enough. 😉
