Are you a druggy?

Lanzoprazole and paint fumes here.

Dr Crippen you're well informed good post
I haven't drank for 11 months and eat very low sugar basically I've realised my health is the most important thing,gone are the abusive ways of filling in time avoiding doctors and hospitals etc. are first priority now

Best to do your own research,you're spot on I know what I was like when I drank or ate carbs my heart rate used to go through the roof,my face would go scarlet and I'd be having adrenal rushes and sugar crashes for days.

I used to play alot of darts and thought it was just nerves or pressure but really the pressure was my adrenal glands being burnt out.I'd imagine I was flooded with cortisol but it took til I was fairly drunk til I didn't feel the effects until I woke up the next day of course

Moisok there are two camps of thought over that.

Obviously carbs turn to glucose and trigger insulin. So with fewer carbs, less insulin in needed to push the glucose into the receptors and bring down the sugar, and less medication is needed. That's a fact.

Yet when protein and fat are included with cars the insulin needed to get the glucose into the receptors goes right up. That is a fact as well.
The low carb merchants claim here is the reason for insulin resistance in the first place - the receptors are clogged with fat. 
So remove fat from the diet and the glucose goes in, and less insulin is needed.
They claim a plant based diet free from fat can reverse stage 2 diabetes in many cases.

There's a lot of controversy over the ideal diet for S2 diabetes.

Should be:
On the other side of the coin, fat does not trigger insulin if digested alone.

I went Keto for 3 months last year and if controlled properly with adequate Magnesium,Potassium,Sodium and water it will change the lives of almost everyone who is type 2 or pre diabetic.
Insulin and glucose get stabilised within a few days and you start using the visceral fat around your liver,pancreas,stomach etc which is inhibiting your insulin resistance.
To do this especially without lots of excercise you have to empty your glycogen stores which wont take more than 2 weeks then your liver can turn the fat into ketones which are used for fuel.When you're in this stage your liver feeds enough glucose to your brain and glycogen is stored in smaller amounts as your body can turn protein into glucose but is used efficiently when you're in ketosis.
I'm currently doing a low carb/ketogenic diet but as I'm excercising I'm having refeeds twice per week and I was sceptical about coming out of ketosis but it's working very well excercise wise.

SlippyBlue Naproxen works but when I was on them I started pooing blood my mother used to take them bbut she takes tablets (Lananzoprozole?) which protect her stomach and small intestines for all her medication.I was taking them with food.
Also I've found anti-inflammatories destroy your testosterone levels and I noticed big time when excercising on them but obviously if you're in pain you're gonna take whatever you can

When I first came off Keto I found that I could use starch normally but what happened after a week or so I started to get my old aches and pains back.Unrelated I had an abcess flair up so I was drinking milk through a straw and eating mashed banana but I found after a day or so I wasn't hungry and this went on for about 12 days where I'd have  only a pint or so of milk and 2 bananas (plus anti-inflammatories and pain killers)
When I got my tooth sorted I decided to go low carb again and I'm feeling spot on with progression in excercise and no problems after refeeds,what has helped is better supplementation I take a good ZMA and vitamin D supplements which seem to be working.

The problem most people will get will be sugar withdrawal but that goes away after a couple of days with plenty electrolytes

I exercise well now too and feel so much better all round
Part of the reason low carb is seen as problematic is the nhs and doctors themselves
However SENSIBLE  low carb is good - but the otherside of the coin suggesting bread, potatoes, rice, pasta
any diabetic will tell you what happens to your BS levels two hours after eating meals like that.
A decent alternative to rice is cauliflower rice - so nowt wrong with that.
Veg is good of course and salad (although you would be surprised at even that)
eggs excellent - and bake cakes etc with alternatives to flour which is another processed evil

but we have had this debate before - steer clear of processed stuff

yes and you are quite right it is what suits the individual and getting back to normal.

DenzilPenberthy, yes I have been told Naproxen can cause bleeding hence me taking Omeprazole first thing in the morning as well. It won't be for long hopefully that I have to take these as I never take tablets for anything normally.

Consider this:
With 30% of the fructose we eat ending up as fat, a high sugar diet is in fact a high fat diet.

Sugar is a carb, and high carb diets when compared to high fat diets always include sugar.

Yet there's no sugar at all in the high fat diet.

I believe sugar should be kept to a minimum in high carb diets as well.

J  run up that hill to your bruv's pub a few times would keep anyone fit!!!
all the best

Should've said that 50g was per day

Yes Denzil, as I understand you can't have insulin present and fat burning at the same time.

LFV, injuries that prove difficult to heal can indicate diabetes.

cool
