This is #Keto #LCHF #IntermittentFasting. 75lbs down and health markers much improved. After decades of being overweight/obese, I'm healthier in my 50s than I was in my 30s. Inspired by my wife @nickypotts99 @lowcarbGP @KenDBerryMD @drjasonfung @jen_unwin @ObesityResolved

Wow ⁦@UKLabour⁩ ⁦@wesstreeting⁩ 13categories of junk food you are about right 👍 Includes Breakfast cereal: muesli, porridge oats &other items you find in a supermarket breakfast isle Should these be fed to people with T2 diabetes in hospital?? https://t.co/OQZQWHsAmo

[Helen Cassley🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🥩🥑🍷 @CassleyHelen]

@nickypotts99 @richardosman Agreed!

@drjenunwin @LidlGB I saw these in @LidlGB and Costco; straight back in the fridge after checking the ingredients.

@CaryKelly11 We have a William Bounds grinder. We bought it around 20 years ago and it's still going strong.

Sugar is sugar is sugar!
It does not matter whether sugar comes from fruit, vegetables, grains, a soft drink or even juice; it is all sugar. The body cannot distinguish between “natural sugar” and table sugar.
To a diabetic, sugar is a disaster—yes, even natural sugars. It spikes glucose, and when ingested with multiple small meals (as recommended by the ADA and DGA to keep glucose levels stable 🤡), it keeps insulin levels elevated—insulin, the fat-storage hormone!
There you have it, type 2 diabetes explained in one paragraph. Sugar, especially fructose, is not healthy. It burdens the liver, the cardiovascular system, and the mitochondria.
So, does the brain require sugar?
The answer is both yes and no. The brain can function optimally on ketones or glucose, and the liver makes both. There is no need for dietary carbs (sugar) if enough protein is provided.

@My_Metro Thank you. I was able to pay my fare to continue my journey to work. Some people might not be able to.

@My_Metro, metro tickets are NOT being accepted on bus service 22. My metro to St James went back to Walkergate.

Introducing the "Freshwell Guide"!

Some of the Freshwell Low Carb Programme participants have asked us what to eat, summarised on one side of A4. So that’s what we’ve done. You can download an A4 PDF copy and / or print it as a poster using this link: https://t.co/EUWoXznmxx

[David Oliver, Freshwell @LoCarbFreshwell]

I thought I’d give Instagram a go to see if we can expand our audience a bit. I have no idea what I’m doing. Wish me luck! https://t.co/j1fOU2wwoJ

Been #keto WoE for 6 rys & never had chaffles. Bought £10 waffle maker. Tried a "sweet" option; 70g full fat soft cheese, 1 egg, 2 tblsp peanut butter, salt & vanilla extract. Mix well. Makes 2 decent sized waffles, topped with homemade creme fraiche and toasted nuts. Yum!

@okiegirl2012 You can use buttermilk as a starter if you don't make yogurt and have leftover whey.

[Helen Cassley🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🥩🥑🍷 @CassleyHelen]

My first attempt at making creme fraiche. It's delicious, way better than standard supermarket stuff.

[Helen Cassley🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🥩🥑🍷 @CassleyHelen]

@okiegirl2012 I mixed 300ml double cream with 2tblsp fresh whey from yogurt making. Put in a clean jar and keep at room temperature/20°C for 12 hrs. My house is cold so I used a water bath to keep the temperature steady.

@gertvanden Oscar - he is a very chunky boy.

@DoctorTro I can eat a small portion of raw nuts and be satisfied. However, if I roast and salt them, I have no "off switch".
