Are there ways to ensure that you are getting all the nutrients and vitamins you need? Yes there is. By eating visceral meats, fatty cold water fish and organic vegetables you are a long way to your goal. I have found that in the absence of knowing and having absolute peace of mind that I am eating correctly, a good choice of supplements has made a huge difference to my journey. I am a huge fan of getting all my nutrients in with ease and peace of mind rates highly when choosing nutrients to eat. Here is a list of nutrients you need from the food choices you make daily. 1. Vitamin A (Beta Carotene), Vitamin A is a vitamin...
By Sarah Robinson .So here is an opinion from a fellow banter, a veteran LCHF since you asked. I first did it back in 2003 and lost almost 90 lbs and corrected my depression and IBS and obesity WITH NO EXPERTS, no book, only a biochem textbook and willpower to take back my life, called it my personal take on Atkins diet. Following a "moderation diet" over the last few years has resulted in insulin resistance. I am also a primary care clinician (Podiatrist) who happens to know a lot of stuff about how these meat suits we walk around in actually work. RMR is great. Awesome. It is preventative.

In your lifetime, your kidneys filter more than one million gallons of water, enough to fill a small lake. Amazingly, one kidney can handle the task perfectly well. In fact, if you lose a kidney, your remaining kidney can increase in size by 50 percent within two months, to take over the job of both.3 Urine is 95 percent water and five percent urea, uric acid, minerals, salts, enzymes, and various substances that would cause problems if allowed to accumulate in your body4. Normal urine is clear and has a straw yellow color, caused by a bile pigment called urobilin. As with your stool, your urine changes color depending on what foods you eat, what medications and supplements you take,...
Researchers have concluded from studies of mice that ingesting artificial sweeteners might lead to—of all things—obesity and related ailments such as diabetes. This study was not the first to note this link in animals, but it was the first to find evidence of a plausible cause: the sweeteners appear to change the population of intestinal bacteria that direct metabolism, the conversion of food to energy or stored fuel. And this result suggests the connection might also exist in humans.In humans, as well as mice, the ability to digest and extract energy from our food is determined not only by our genes but also by the activity of the trillions of microbes that dwell within our digestive tract; collectively, these bacteria...
Testimony Joos Jooste I am fat, always been. I have lost more than 500kg in my dieting career. The problem is the weight always finds me again. I have been on all the diets in the book, counted calories, weighed portions, lost weight on some of them, gained weight on others. It was a vicious circle. The most I weighed was 235 kg.

Six years ago I had my first encounter with low carb diet, but unfortunately it was high protein as well. I...
