Avatar n tn I had good luck with the Carbohydrate addicts diet or CAD. I lost 50 lbs but as the time has gone by I have stayed at a higher weight than I like. Their web-site is http://www.carbohydrateaddicts.com I have eaten this way for 12 years and it is easy to follow once you know the "rules" The diet also travels well and I can get the right foods anywhere on vacation.
470168 tn?1237471245 Look into the diet called "the carbohydrate addicts diet" I am not a salesperson, and this diet has been out for a long time. It has enabled me to lose 40 lbs and reverse prediabetes. What is so great about it is that you can still have the occasional "forbidden foods" and still keep your blood glucose level low. It is based on the way our bodies release insulin. If you consume all your carbs in one hour your body only releases two loads of insulin.
Avatar f tn I have been formally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and possible Carbohydrate Intolerance. My issue is when I eat a load of carbs, it hits up to 3 days later and I can't hardly get out of bed and am weak most of the day. Everything I read about Carb Intolerance says that fatigue usually hits within the first few hours. Has anyone else experienced this? Carb crash, a day or days after the carbs are eaten?
Avatar f tn Is the NA basic text similar to the AA Big Book? I have the big book and if the NA text is the same basically, I won't bother picking it up. If it is different, I will pick it up because I find replacing "alcohol" with "opiates" mentally, a pain.
Avatar n tn I see small lists, but nothing very complete. Have you found one? I have a book or two but I would think it exists online. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Most important is to control and manage your diabetes. Then limit your carbohydrate food intake for weight loss. Use Google to search and understand the difference between 'simple carbs and complex carbs'. Go to the Atkins web site for low carb information and recipes. Click on programs to get started. http://atkins.com/Homepage.aspx Pay careful attention to your breath, your body odor, or urine if any starts to have a fruity sweet smell.
Avatar f tn As diabetes is a disease of altered carbohydrate metabolism, then the management involves greatly limiting carbohydrate intake. The degree of restriction varies by person (you have to use your blood glucose meter to detect the impact of different foods so you can learn which foods work for you and which do not), however it can go as low as 20 g a day from some, and up to maybe 130g a day for those who are very mild and more easily managed.
Avatar n tn A little while ago i had a nondiabetic doctor recommend a low carbohydrate diet to help keep my blood sugars low and when i mentioned it to my endocrinologist she said that that type of diet puts extra strain on the kidneys and since diabetics are already prone to kidney problems they should avoit it. i would recommend that at your next doctor appointment you ask to be referred to a dietician to go over the proper diet aspects for a diabetic.
7188197 tn?1399464311 Anyone ever read this book? I just read it via kindle. Has anyone ever tried the Vitiman Supplements/Minerals that he suggests in this book? If so can you take all these Vitiamns with a Multivitman? Did this help anyone ... ?
2120911 tn?1350922661 Also, I just remembered there is a book by William Cope Moyers called Broken! Didn't he found Hazelden or something? I have the book but haven't read it yet! They both are autobiographical stories!
Avatar f tn 12 They compared groups consuming diets of 90% fat, 90% protein, and 90% carbohydrate and showed that the greatest weight loss was in the fat consuming group. The authors concluded that the “composition of the diet appeared to outweigh in importance the intake of calories.
Avatar m tn Have her go on the "Specific Carbohydrate Diet". It was developed by Dr. Sidney V. Haas and popularized by Elaine Gottschall who wrote a book on how to cure Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. The book is called "Breaking the Vicious Cycle: Intestinal Health Through Diet". You can find it on Amazon.com and there you can read all of the MANY wonderful reviews on there. The diet consists of easy to digest whole foods. It's the next best thing to an elemental liquid diet.
Avatar m tn Due to stomach problems, I have decided to try a Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Has anyone experienced relief on this diet? So basically, this is what I got from it- fresh vegtables, fresh fruits, lean meats, most nuts, NO LACTOSE, NO SUGAR (except in fruits and honey), and NO STARCHES. Is this about right? Also, what is the policy on yogurt and coconut milk?
Avatar m tn m sure I violated every rule for Hep C patients in the book (ie pure protein meals, pure carbohydrate meals, yada yada). Should you do this? don't ask me. However, I don't tell lies on this list by being super worried but still drinking alcohol and/or staying obese and glutinous. I also take all the recommended HR nutrients minus the 2 real expensive ones. My next endeaver should you care? Another 10-week cycle at MuscleHack.
Avatar f tn When used in larger amounts, as in cooking and baking, these calories and carbohydrate should be accounted for by carbohydrate counting or by using starch/bread exchanges. As an example, one half cup of SPLENDA® Granulated contributes 12 grams of carbohydrates and 11 to 20 grams are counted as one starch exchange. In SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener Packets, sucralose is combined with maltodextrin and dextrose. These ingredients contribute 1 gram of carbohydrate and four calories per packet.
Avatar m tn To control blood sugars she should work with her doctor for meds (what meds is she on?), eat low carbohydrate diet, and take up daily exercise of at least 30 minutes (more if she can). We can recommend some good books if these would be of use. There is alos plenty of online information about lower carb diets for diabetes management. hope your mother feels better soon.
Avatar m tn If I were to take the Schering-Plough's (Merck's)PEG-Intron prescribing info meal twice a day with my Riba , I would become overweight and that sets the stage for insulin resistants and other possible health issues. The only way to gage Riba absorption that we have available is to watch for its toxic side effect hemolytic anemia. As long as your hemoglobin dropped enough you know you are getting Riba into your system.
Avatar n tn t go out and find addicts, its like they come to me. i try and think maybe God is doing this because i kind of know how it feels, and i have a huge heart enough to care about addiction and take it for the disease that it is, but at the same time, i have been co dependent in the past and try to avoid that as much as possible.
Avatar m tn What has often been said is to cut down or reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to reduce/lower your glucose levels. I have written in your previous postings that you need to use Google or Yahoo to search on complex vs simple carbs. Please include a search on the Glycemic Index reference food groups. Educate yourself about the foods available to you, what you put into your body and how these foods will affect your life. All carbohydrates are broken down to glucose to produce the energy.
