Hey Everyone,
Sorry for the delay inwards novel weblog posts. (But hopefully the cute flick of the eggs on the previous post makes yous grin when yous come across it.)
There’s a argue I haven’t posted anything novel inwards the concluding twain of weeks. I’m redoing the site too it’s best if I don’t add together anything novel until the transition is complete. Sometime inwards the side past times side calendar week or two, the site volition expression completely different. Don’t live confused! You’ll live inwards the correct place, fifty-fifty if everything is unfamiliar. It’ll accept me a spell to settle on colors too fonts that I like, thence yous powerfulness move along to come across some changes at that topographic point until I’m happy with the appearance, but since I don’t desire to hold yous (or me!) waiting on novel posts, I’m going to move for it too sort out the details later. As much every bit I’d similar everything to live pretty too shiny too well-organized correct away, if the repose of my life is whatever indication, making things pretty, shiny, too well-organized is not my forte, thence if I’m going to hold back for that to happen, yous all are going to live waiting a looong fourth dimension for novel posts. And since writing is my forte (or thence I’m told)—not to cite I similar doing it and sharing with yous all the cool things I learn—I powerfulness every bit good but saltation into the novel setup too accept yous all with me without waiting for things to expression perfect.
Here’s a sneak peek at what’s inwards store on the site inwards general, too the blog, specifically. Some of the weblog posts volition plough over off sooner rather than later, but they all volition plough over off eventually. (Sadly, it’s looking similar some other entire twelvemonth will overstep earlier I crank out some other post service inwards the serial on the metabolic theory of cancer.)
Coming up:
The site inwards general:
More & amend content
I’ve been wanting to build my site to a greater extent than content-heavy for a long time. Right now, it’s really but my blog. As it is now, my site is non a expert resources for people who are build novel to low-carb eating. I constantly shipping people to dietdoctor.com (especially the nutrient lists), Ketogenic Diet Resource, too Dr. Ted Naiman’s site, Burn Fat Not Sugar. And every bit much every bit I similar sending traffic at that topographic point too non reinventing the wheel, it would live overnice if I had my own “get started” guide for all this, written the agency I would desire somebody to explicate it to me if I were novel to this. So with the things I’ll live adding over fourth dimension are nutrient lists, guides to macros (protein, fat, carbs), a depression carb & keto FAQ, myths too truths near ketones too why (and why NOT) to mensurate them, too more.
Podcast Repository
Links to all the podcasts I’ve done. I did a few podcasts a twain years back, but at nowadays that my mass is out, I’ve done the electronic equivalent of a mass tour, with my podcast interviews at nowadays inwards the double digits. I’ll create a page where they’re cataloged too linked to for like shooting fish in a barrel access.
Ads – Maybe
I don’t know if I’ll have got whatever ads other than the ones I already have got for Amazon, Netrition, too Vital Choice. I powerfulness add together an affiliate or 2 if I come upwards across products I genuinely believe in. I’m a piddling torn, though. I don’t desire to plough whatever of yous off or move some sort of shill where at that topographic point are thence many ads it’s hard to discovery the content yous really attention about. That beingness said, I know you, my love readers, empathize that I am trying to build a living, too if I tin acquire a twain cents hither too at that topographic point from the sale of something yous would have got bought anyway, well, that seems non-shady to me. And possibly you’ll discovery out near a production yous weren’t going to buy, but solely because yous didn’t know it existed, but in i lawsuit yous discovery out near it, yous powerfulness desire to give it a try. I dunno. It’s a fine balance—providing useful content too really paying my rent, but non monetizing every foursquare inch of weblog existent estate too having to a greater extent than pop-ups than at that topographic point is useful materials that doesn’t bug the sh*t out of you.
Blog posts:
Soooo many weblog post service ideas simmering away inwards my brain!
Yes, this is how it works. I acquire an idea, too I desire to write near it NOW, but I know it has to percolate for a spell earlier it coalesces into something coherent that I tin start jotting down. Some posts be every bit bulleted lists inwards my take away heed for months earlier they acquire written. In no particular order, since I don’t know which of these I’ll goal writing first, hither are the ones that are inwards the percolating phase now, making their agency tardily into rattling fossil oil drafts on my trusty seven-year-old laptop:
Thyroid. Thyroid, ThYrOiD, THYROID!
I’ll salvage the juicy details for the post, but here’s the teaser: I started thyroid medication inwards Dec too here’s what’s happened since then: I’ve lost fifteen pounds. My chronic constipation is gone. My pilus no longer falls out inwards clumps in the shower or inwards my hairbrush. My severe, longstanding, too unremitting depression is 87% gone. This medication has been null brusk of life-changing for me, too based on what I already knew near thyroid function, summation the presentation of many clients who’ve come upwards to me, thyroid hypofunction is insanely under-diagnosed too when it is diagnosed, the vast bulk of MDs (including endocrinologists) have got NO FREAKING CLUE how to treat it properly. There is a vast, vast amount of suffering going on out at that topographic point for NO REASON other than doctors are non savvy plenty inwards the details for treating thyroid, too most patients are non aware that they take away to stand upwards for themselves, live their ain strongest advocate, too tell their medico that fifty-fifty though they’ve been “on thyroid medication” for nevertheless many weeks, months, or years, THEY STILL FEEL LIKE SH*T too they take away a higher dose or a dissimilar type of medication! This i is gonna live good, folks.
A novel expression at the etiology too progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D) too obesity
(Well, novel to me, anyway, too rattling likely novel to you, too, but some of the papers I’ll live referencing move dorsum at to the lowest degree fifteen years, thence it’s erstwhile intelligence to someone.) I’ve said this before: I acquire novel things near all this “stuff”—diabetes, obesity, insulin, cancer, Alzheimer’s—all the time, too i of the things I relish most near my weblog is that I acquire to part all those cool findings with you. I’ve ever approached this weblog with the thought that I’ll write near what I desire to write about, too near what fascinates me, and non near what’s most pop at whatever given time, or what garners the most clicks & shares. (There’s a argue there’s almost null inwards the archives on adrenal fatigue too very, rattling piddling on gluten too the gut biome.) The fact that at that topographic point are strangers out at that topographic point who desire to read what I’ve written silent sort of blows my mind. I’m non certain I’ll ever acquire used to that. Anyway, I’ve learned some rattling interesting things near how obesity too T2D develop – things that have got made me rethink some of what I thought I understood near these. My agreement wasn’t wrong, but it was incomplete. Things are to a greater extent than fleshed out now, including an agreement of how/why higher-carb, low-fat diets can really piece of employment for weight loss too reversing T2D. (I silent yell back depression carb is to a greater extent than effective too but acre better, peculiarly for long-term compliance too maintenance, but I at to the lowest degree “get” why depression fatty could work, if somebody prefers to move that route. Shocking, I know! ;-) Hint: every bit much every bit nosotros powerfulness similar to yell back it is, it’s non all near carbs.)
What if we’ve been incorrect ... near everything?
For those of yous non on Twitter too Facebook, there’s a growing community of people experimenting with (and thriving on) “zero-carb” diets. This piddling factoid solitary should build us query much of what nosotros yell back nosotros know near human nutrition. Yes, fifty-fifty those of us inwards the low-carb too keto crowd. Sure, we’ve come upwards to empathize that nosotros don’t take away any—let solitary a lot of—whole grains or fruit. And the Paleo folks know that every bit much every bit nosotros low-carbers love our butter, cheese, too heavy cream, mankind tin alive but fine without dairy. And I yell back all of us acquire that chia seeds, goji berries, too spirulina are not “superfoods” that render a ride on the limited develop to immortality too everlasting health. But what near the other materials some of us silent concord dear? Don’t nosotros take away fiber? Don’t nosotros take away leafy greens? Don’t nosotros take away fermented foods? What near the gut biome?! Won’t yous snuff it from scurvy if yous don’t acquire copious amounts of vitamin C every unmarried solar daytime … too fifty-fifty after you die, yous should live buried with some orangish juice inwards illustration there’s none inwards the afterlife, right? Right? This one’s gonna live fun.
How to Reduce Dietary Fat on a Ketogenic or Low-Carb Diet (and Why You Might Want to)
Nutshell version: every bit much every bit nosotros want it were true, it is not, inwards fact, truthful that every bit long every bit yous hold carbs depression yous tin swallow every bit much fatty every bit yous want. I’ve lost count of how many inquiries I’ve had from people who are struggling to lose fatty on a low-carb or ketogenic diet “despite” eating 80% fat, or “despite” drinking java or tea loaded with butter too kokosnoot oil. Those of yous who’ve been around these parts for a spell know I’m non allowed to hold mayonnaise inwards my house. Why? Because I’ve learned the hard agency that yous can’t swallow unlimited fatty too hold back to lose trunk fat. Some fat, yes. Gorging on it inwards gild to enter at some magical ketogenic ratio upwards of 75+% fat? Nope. Nope, nope, nopity-nope.
Dining Out on a Low-Carb or Ketogenic Diet
I’m non certain why folks discovery this hard or confusing. For somebody similar me, who is overwhelmed past times interplanetary space choices too suffers from a pathological inability to build fifty-fifty small, semi-meaningless decisions (like what to gild at a restaurant), low-carb really makes ordering easier, because at some restaurants, 65% of the carte du jour is automatically off limits. The less I have got to conduct from, the easier it is for me make a choice. (If yous are wired the same way, this mass volition live of peachy interest—and comfort—to you. You’re non the solely one!) My friend “Woo” but wrote near this. My post service volition live similar (substitute non-starchy vegetables for grains too starchy side dishes), but with a chip to a greater extent than particular on specific choices at diverse ethnic restaurants too how to avoid inadvertently consuming a ton of saccharide from sauces too marinades.
Book Review: The Case Against Sugar, past times Gary Taubes
You know if Gary Taubes writes a book, I’m gonna read it! After all, his tour-de-force, Good Calories, Bad Calories, was the origin house I’d ever read near a connectedness betwixt glucose, insulin, too Alzheimer’s, too yous all know where that piddling tidbit led. ;D This latest mass was…well, it was equal parts fascinating, educational, too infuriating. Why infuriating? Well, Taubes goes dorsum a few centuries—centuries—to exhibit us that doctors inwards the 1600s too 1700s had already recognized that saccharide was upwards to no expert inwards damage of people’s wellness too their trunk weight. Taubes points out that many of the “modern” or “Western” diseases, or “diseases of civilization” really started to pop upwards inwards the 17th too 18th centuries – long earlier at that topographic point were soybean too corn oils, long earlier GMOs, grain-fed meats, pesticides, EMF, no cars, no TVs, prison theatre cellphone phones or computers, or anything else that is typically used every bit the scapegoat for obesity too type-2 diabetes. But what at that topographic point was, was sugar—large amounts of it for the origin fourth dimension inwards human history. (Not counting fruit too modest amounts of honey.) Doctors from agency dorsum too thence had already recognized that people who were becoming rattling overweight, had gout, articulation pain, too diabetes were all eating a lot of sugar. All of those weather were in i lawsuit the sole purview of royalty—because they were the solely ones who could afford sugar. And it was recommended that rail-thin women who wanted a fuller figure should drinkable saccharide water, because it was known that saccharide helped position weight on. HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO. (This post service volition live one-half mass review too one-half rant, obviously.)
Cool Find Friday
A sporadic serial inwards which I’ll live highlighting novel too not-so-new nutrient products I’ve flora that are making my low-carb life tastier too to a greater extent than enjoyable. (Kind of goes along with the post service on reducing dietary fatty on a low-carb diet. Shocker: at that topographic point are some low-fat salad dressings that are not loaded with sugar. Score!) The vast bulk of these items are things I’ve come upwards across at the supermarket—meaning, no annoying affiliate links inwards your human face upwards every time. There are a few things I’ll tell yous near that I acquire from Netrition, but for the most part, I’ll live sharing materials yous tin acquire at your regular ol’ grocery store.

I’ll tell yous near ways to back upwards my writing too my existence inwards general. (Blogging is fun, but it don’t pay mama’s bills, yo!
