Using low-carb diet to fight cancer
Here's an interesting article:
http://www.time.com/time/health/arti...662484,00.html A quote I found interesting: Others, says Schmidt, dropped out because they found it hard to stick to the no-sweets diet: "We didn't expect this to be such a big problem, but a considerable number of patients left the study because they were unable or unwilling to renounce soft drinks, chocolate and so on." |

It surely will be sad to learn that the low-fat (ie, high carb) diet promotes cancer, huh? Not that the notion hasn't been put forth long ago. |

Not that the notion hasn't been put forth long ago. i started separating carbs from protein. i forced the same diet on my mother and my husband. and .... they got rid of all the ouches they had. like high blood pressure, overweight, high cholestoral, gout and so on. this is a dr. hay diet. check that one out. it is amazing, how healthy it makes you. and ... you are supposed to eat carbs because of your kidneys, but the separation makes you healthy. i give free information, if anybody wants to contact me for that. |

That also sounds like the system from Sommersize by actress Suzanne Sommers. At has two features of note - 1) Using the word "carbs" not for any carb source but only for foods above some threshold of carb density. This has the hidden feature of assuming carb sources below some level can be ignored or even labeled carb free. Dr Atkins in his original 1972 Doctor Atkins Diet Revolution (without the word New like all of the later editions) made the same mistake and idiot sound bite press folks blasted low carbing for over two decades as a result of that poor wording choice. 2) Treating a single meal of only carby foods like oatmeal as harmless as long as it is not eaten with high protein or high fat foods. Maybe this is a digestion issue like in Food for Life. It will work okay for folks without insulin resistance but those are the ones who tend to do just as well on low fat as on low carb. It will definitely fail for folks with reactive hypoglycemia, diabetes and so on. you are supposed to eat carbs because of your kidneys Completely false and a sign of utter ignorance of low carb issues. It's a very old lie and it is one that was leveled against Dr Atkins early on. His defense was simple - Name one patient in all of medicine who had no kidney problems before starting low carb, who followed the directions in the book (moving through the phases and such) who then developed kidney problems that can't be attributed to other causes. In the decades from his going before the medical review board in the 1970s and his death in the 2000s the AMA brought a grand total of ZERO case names up in response to his challenge. There is absolutely no evidence that cutting dietary carbs even to the true-zero levels of Inuit hunters on the ice has the slightest ill effect on the kidneys. Also note that ASLDC has folks who started low carbing even after having been diagnosed with kidney damage and they saw improvement as a result of their dietary changes. With existing kidney damage, caution is called for, but low carbing when carefully done is definitely known to help in some cases. |

It's better to eat it with fat, which slows the absorption. you are supposed to eat carbs because of your kidneys Also note that ASLDC has folks who started low carbing even after having been diagnosed with kidney damage and they saw improvement as a result of their dietary changes. With existing kidney damage, caution is called for, but low carbing when carefully done is definitely known to help in some cases. The typical cause of kidney damage is elevated bg, thus carbs cause the problem rather than solve it. -- http://www.ornery-geeks.org/consulting/ |
