Protein is not all the same. If you don’t know how protein affects you personally it can increase both you blood glucose level and you insulin levels and this could well be disastrous and very frustrating if your goal is to lower you glucose levels or if you have a history of epilepsy...it could very bad. ——————————— OUR COURSE —————————— PSMF 30 day course: https://www.thebiointegrationcode.com/courses/PSMFChallenge ————WHERE WE GET OUR GENOME SNP ANALYSIS DONE————— Strategene https://bit.ly/3i...

What started as a disagreement between Dr. Rob Cywes and myself about whether protein when eaten ‘turns to sugar (glucose) in your blood stream' grew into an academic debate. Doug Reynolds thought this would be a great podcast. Here is that podcast in two parts with a brief intro about what the heart of the issue is all about. As a way of further setting up the topic I spliced in a portion of Dr. Bikman presentation on protein and the insulin / glucagon ratio. All very interesting comments. The ...

It’s important to ‘remember where you came from’ as the saying goes. In our case, it’s a very short step back in time to re-experience how our health incinerated around us from colossal personal loss of everything we worked for, coupled with a grim diagnosis of my wife's brain tumor, and loss of my only brother, and mother. It all exceeded my ability to cope. I crumbled into (what I was told by the physicians treating me) severe lifelong illness with no cure (was told it was worst crohns and ulc...

As a ‘culture’ we have become not only hooked on carbohydrates but on process foods specifically. This has Hacked our metabolism and created an epidemic of obesity and diabetes that is already at 40% of the population in some states (W. Virginia and Mississippi). The inevitable result, is that to mitigate all of the resulting metabolic problems medication after medication are used which results in a Hijacking of our brain health by depriving it of the healthy appropriate fuel that it needs. ————...

Most of us have some idea what dementia is. Though we toss the word ‘demented’ around as a put down, Dementia, and Alzheimers experienced up close is difficult to witness. In part why it is so difficult to watch others go through the decline is because much of it can be avoided entirely by adopting a Low Carb High Fat Ketogenic diet. If there was one specific condition that is most improved by ketones, this would be it. In fact, unlike other conditions that can be improved by a ketogenic diet, t...

A key sign of an addict is the craving for their addictive substance or need for a "fix". A food fix, like any drug fix, is an attempt to experience the dopamine high needed by any addict . Food addiction, more specifically, Processed Food Addiction is no different than other addictions in the sense of they are looking for a dopamine high.

At a population level, male testosterone levels and reproductive health are plummeting at a precipitous rate . These changes cannot be accounted for solely by comorbid (associated) conditions such as metabolic syndrome. Other factors are the dramatic and damaging effects of endocrine disruptors.

I’ve always thought that what the world is sorely in need of today is critical thinkers. Now I realized it is not that they are not there, it is that their perspectives have been kept from the mainstream due to their ideas being perceived as a threat to some ginormous corporate interest that has kept it out of the headlines. This is such a story that will definitely affect you personally. If you know your homocysteine levels or know that they are high than you better listen up. Besides it is a v...

The question I keep asking myself is why is it we always hear about that some people can’t or don’t get positive results with a Ketogenic diet (aka Low Carb High Fat). Whether it is the Virta Health study or any one of various Obesity and Lifestyle Clinics around the country. It is pretty much common knowledge that about 50 % will get positive results, which usually mean weight loss or reversing diabetes. However that also means that 50% of those attempting the LCHF diet did not find any positiv...

There’s two concepts that drive my passion for learning about and helping people implement the ‘Keto’ life style, and those are: 1. In order to be healthy in a progressively unhealthy world we need to think and act differently, and2. In order help people regain their health ( weight loss in this instance) one needs to look where where others haven’t looked in order to see, to understand, what others haven’t seen or don’t see. My point is that things have become more complicated today in terms un...

For some, this is the long a waited topic, conversation, that many feel represents their experience most accurately. It's for the people who have endured the often unnecessary work of getting started with the Ketogenic diet only to have it become a thoroughly frustrating time and effort. For others, this might be too ‘granular’ in terms of talking about the specific variables required to create a successful outcome. For me it has become a realization in my ‘quest’ of how to have Keto work for ev...
