Congratulation ShooterGeorge

How about Hba1c ???

Shooter...

S cr 1 is a bit high. Get urinary microalbuminuria done. Give fasting urine. That will give idea about microscopic damage done to the K. This is what i feel. Actually this test in one of the first tests and should be done every year. I'm getting it done.

My report on last wekeend after 4 months of LWMDR:

My tablet got reduced after LWMDR from Janumet 50/500 to melmet 500sr

PPBs: 107

FBS: 118

Even FBS used to be low too starngely has increased, but PPBs is great

FBS 118 may be the aftereffect of low PPBS. Hence I feel it may be ignored for the time being.

hmmmm...yar tune sahi pakada hai.... there is some problem with his 'K' uska ppbs kam hone pe bhi uska urine mein sugar ata hai....

check his all reports...

But about long wheat I really don't know....

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply tocure

Cure

this is not about long wheat. This is about D control. There should be a scientific approach so that we can provide correct information to the others.

If he is passing sugar in the urine means either his bs is not under control or his K threshold for glucose is low.

But surely he should get his microalbuminuria done at a standard lab.

cure profile image
cureAdministratorā€¢ in reply tosuramo

suramo yes...very true...it is very very appreciable of mr ShooterGeorge that in spite of his diet being rice based...his fasting sugar is better than non diabetic.

It is also known that he consumes bananas at every meal.

Fasting sugar is most difficult part in diabetes control.

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply tocure

Cure

frankly. I take the claim with a pinch of salt. We must know if he was really D or preD. Looking at his diet and lab results probably he is not D.šŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™Š

cure profile image
cureAdministratorā€¢ in reply tosuramo

hahaha suramo I guess he was pre diabetic...

But they say you can not be pre diabetic....its like either you are pregnant or not pregnant....

But yes....you can see his reports...as @anup said there was sugar trace in his urine while on OGTT.

But yar Look at his fasting....

To me also CURE is like dream....But who knows???

Marta kya nahi karta???

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply tocure

Cure

absolutely. You are either D or nonD.

Sugar in urine doesn't prove one D. Low renal threshold can also be the cause. We should look scientifically. Very important to guide the people in future or everybody would start taking diet he was taking - a rice based diet. And you know what can happen. Sorry. I don't intend to hurt anybody but i'm looking for science in it.

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply toShooterGeorge

ShooterGeorge

Yes everybody would be passing through preD stage but most of them are detected late and by that time they become D.

As per my knowledge there is a script written in our genome for our beta cells to degenerate over a time. The extent to which these cells would lose their function is different for different people. Those who retain good bcf can be managed by diet only. Others with drugs and rest who have very poor bcf have to take insulin for the whole life.

Well. T2d can be reversed but not cured. I don't know what made you think that you were D but fine you have controlled your D. I just want to understand the science behind it so that other people may not inadvertantly start the diet you are taking.

Thanks.

we are talking here about t2d. Not hyperglycemia secondary to some pathology or diseases.

You mean to say he was D and now with long wheat he has influenced his genes and / or ir and he is D free now and can eat high carb diet ? Sorry. I'd love to connect this to science. His reports how he was declared D. And his present bcf and ir.

@Cure

diet diet and diet. Bcf is there and will remain there. This is all because of low carb low calorie diet. Mere bhai i have to learn living without the help of beta cells - insulin. So my diet would be negligible amt of carbs, proteins for muscle repairs and fats. Yes i am intending to change my fuel from carb to good fats. @Anup. Legumes and sprouts, also eggs and nonveg will address your concern for muscle repair.

@Cure

i was just going through past posts. You thanked your D control 50% to lc** and 50% to ayu medicines. Now tell us all what was the base of that claim. I thank my diet only for whatever results i'm getting. Yes. I'm taking allo meds but without diet planning i'd not have achieved. I have poor bcf and going to remain so or may worsen further. Once i gain control on my D i'd gradually cut off my meds and later all the ayu preparations.

cure . Henceforth start dropping ayu meds and keep your attention on diet. You will then know how much benefit from diet and how much from ayu meds in control of your D. I give credit solely to diet and yes allo meds at present.

Thanks once again for giving me guidance and inspiration.

Mere Bhai suramo you are 200% right....diet is first...

Now tell me how diet only will help in FBS???

So ayu is helping me there...

suramo Please tell what are BCF & IR; I am not a medical person you see!

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply toShooterGeorge

ShooterGeorge

Hi. Don't worry. We are all here to learn.

Bcf = beta cell function. These cells are situated in pancreas and synthesize insulin. In t2d these cells gradually lose their function. People like me who have very low bcf are the most difficult patients.

Ir = insulin resistance. Our body cells respond poorly to the insulin.

For that you have to get your fasting insulin and fbs done from the same sample.

Anup will then help you to find out both.

Culprit Genes

Recent genome mapping of modern bread wheat with an eye to its toxic influence in celiac disease has isolated a small chain of peptides on a portion of the gluten protein which is directly responsible for stimulating the reaction in those with the celiac genetic inheritance. The plant genes responsible for contributing these peptides in wheat gluten are located on the third set of chromosomes that the hexaploid variants inherited from their wild parent. It is very interesting to note that neither the diploid nor the tetraploid cereal grains contain this genetic material. That is, cultivated diploid einkorn, and tetraploid emmer wheat along with certain of the durum pasta wheats as well as durum variants such as KamutĀ® (a brand name for T. turgidum or T. turanicum) and T. polonicum (Polish wheat) do not contain this genetic material.

One question.

When you follow Long wheat Regimen, do you RESTRICT the quantity in take to ensure that your total CARBs do NOT go beyond the permitted level.

OR

You DO NOT RESTRICT the CARB consumed every meal.

You are a GREAT example for every one to follow......

hmmmm...I am telling my experience @Anup And it is proved by many experiments...

Further it is proved that it is genetically different than normal wheat....

Even if it is spiking late....still it is helpful as it will help for a diabetic to control his spikes and remain within acceptable limits.

I fully agree with you that since diabetes is problem of carbs...and grains are the source of carbs ....one must try to be grain less as much as possible...

But for everyone it is not possible...

So if at all they use some wheat there is less harm with Long wheat.

@anup First of all there is no..absolutely no denial about reduction of carbs....and grain less diet...

As diabetic one must strive for grain less diet.

But or generation grains are staple diet for we Indians....It will be really difficult to change habits over night.

And hence long wheat or red rice is good option....

Now about EAbg.....I was on 'other site' and was reading discussion about how eAbg and Hba1c calculations done by various ppl and various methods...There is vast differen in calculated Eabg and Hba1c by various stalwarts... I guess we need to understand more on eAbg.

But still again I feel...if at all it is spiking late....it is good....as it will help a diabetic to remain within limits.

Ofoz...rajma and other things will give same effect....Agree....but anupjee...we can not make roti of Rajma....and if at all we make roti of Rajma...it will not be satisfying to average Indian mind.

suramo profile image
suramoStarā€¢ in reply tocure

Cure

gm.

It's a question of habit. It's not at all difficult to become grain free. We need roti for few veg only. All the legumes can be eaten without roti. I don't know but all the nonveg foods also can be eaten without roti. And you feel more fresh and energy level also remains good.

We are poor in clearing carbs so whenever there is high sugar - spike the bs tends to be high for a long time causing damage to the body during that time. And by the time your bs falls near normal you take another food and bs again gets high. Spiking is not advisable for us

eABg ???

cure profile image
cureAdministrator

hmmm.....yes....I do agree...we as race...(not only Indians) are addicted to grains....

So it will take some time ...it will happen gradually...we can not expect this to happen over night...till then.....we can use this...

@anup agree wheat is main culprit.....

And we Indians are suffering due to highly modified wheat consumption....

An amylase (/ĖˆĆ¦mįµ»leÉŖs/) is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into sugars. Amylase is present in the saliva of humans and some other mammals, where it begins the chemical process of digestion.

Why should one ridicule you. It's great that you have controlled your D.."But 1/3 the credit I give to Ayurvedic herbs and 1/3 credit to pranayama , asanas and mudras , where as 1/3 belongs to homeopathy. " so you give no importance to diet for controlling D. See. Here is the difference. As i and many others believe that diet is the first step in the management of D. Now to resolve this difference of opinion we have to take help of the science so that we can give proper advice / guidance in future.

Very good morning.

I always love your aggressive reactions. Thanks.

Firstly being on only insulin means drugs are not working on him. So he has lost his bcf to a great extent and he is almost not producing any insulin. I won't say he has destroyed his beta cells by high carb diet but with low carb diet he could have managed his D perhaps better.

Hi mr rao. How are you sir ?

Insulin is enemy yes and no. For us high insulin level in the presence of ir is harmful to us because it causes more fats to be stored in our body increasing ir further. Good for us also because it's useful in building and maintaining muscles. For nonD it's anabolic hormone.

Hmmm Now days I am reading more on reversal....

here is nice piece I was reading on reddit.com..thought it will be interesting for all members...

Think of diabetes as carbohydrate intolerance, or inability to process carbs correctly. The max amount of carbs that a person can handle is the tolerance limit. Everyone is different, and tolerances vary per person. The reasons behind the differences are not entirely understood for type 2 but for type 1 we know it's because the body can't physically produce enough insulin.

Now, most people's carb tolerance limit is way above the amount of carbs the average person will eat, and does not decline. These are the non diabetics, who show no issues with carb processing.

Some people start to show signs that their ability to process carbs is declining. Their tolerance limit is very close to or just under the amount of carbs they eat. This results in slightly elevated blood glucose or prediabetes, which is what you're seeing.

Others start to show much higher blood glucose numbers, which reflects the "excess" carbs that they are no longer able to process naturally, as their processing threshold is far below the carbs they take in. These are the diabetics, who are classified in types according to the reasons for their lowered tolerance (t1,t2 etc).

In some people, the decline in carb processing ability is very slow or it plateaus. For these people, it's possible to manage diabetes by carefully testing to find what the carb processing threshold actually is, then limiting the carbs in one's diet to reflect that (this is called "eating to your meter"). These are the people that may claim to have "reversed" diabetes. They still have to be careful with carbs but can tolerate occasional carb binges because their averages are good.

It's also possible to raise the carb threshold by losing weight (if overweight) and/or increasing fitness level, and for some people this raises it enough that it no longer has an impact on their dietary choices. These people may also say they have "reversed" diabetes.

The truth is though, that these thresholds are still there, and may still decline over time. The very best way to go about managing things is to find out what your personal carb threshold is and then make sure you respect it, and monitor yourself to ensure that you know if it changes. Meds can help you come in under threshold if you need help getting there, but carb intake is the main method of managing diabetes unless you're type 1 (t1s actually require insulin to stay alive).

Wow that got long but hopefully that makes more sense regarding the continuum of diabetes diagnosis? The actual diagnosis cutoffs are somewhat arbitrary, and what actually matters is your blood glucose levels and how you deal with your personal carb tolerance threshold.

He could have beaten all the active Indian players at that time, he became so fit,ā€ Bhat says, laughing.

My logic / wisdom based on my knowledge of science says that since i can't metabolise carbs i should avoid them. I'm not forcing this upon anybody. Madam take it or leave it. Unless @shooter's case is not clearly understood i can't believe in his claim. I have no personal grudge for him or anybody but with so much of carbs and rice based diet one must think before jumping to lwmdr. Sorry George.

Arey my dear friend liver glycogen is a ready cash for day to day use. Daily whenever there is physiological starvation liver glycogen supplies glucose readily. Yes muscle glycogen storage is selfish to some extent to be preserved in case of stress response - fight or flight. So i don't agree with the concept that " body starts preserving glycogen for when needed the most and starts preferring ketones for fuel when one becomes metabolically flexible"

Now why body utilizes carbs as a main fuel. Simple. The carbs are easy to procure from food and its metabolism is easy. So less stress for producing energy.

Also even if your body is running on ketones as soon as body finds easy fuel - glucose it soon switches to use carbs.

1) i wonder that relates to us. It's about athletes.

2) God knows how he came to his conclusions.

Glycogen is an easy source of energy. Actually existence of glycogen is for instant energy and that is how glucose is stored.

We should not forget neoglucogenesis. 56% of dietary proteins and 10% of dietary fats are converted to glucose. Our body will never give up what is easy for it. Ketones are the last resort only if inevitable.

I'm not alleging you for anything - skim and post but all the posts should not be accepted without logical understanding.

Repeating. Glucose is the main fuel. Fats are energy storage. Whenever glucose is available our body will use glucose only. Fats and proteins are used extensively when no glucose is available as in starvation. If partial starvation first glucose and then prots and fats. There is no switch to change mode so that body would utilize fats even when carbs - glucose are available. Structural carbs are not labile and contribute only when autolysis starts.

very right. Indirect glucose in neo.... . The body tissues take up glucose from blood and the glucose depots - glycogen keep pouring glucose into circulation. When glycogen gets exhausted others have to come into action but there is one interesting fact about our body. It keeps up its practice. So if you are taking high carbs it doesn't mean your body doesn't practice neo......No. nature keeps it practising.

Yes. NK only if there is a hypo caloric diet. Also whenever glucose is available our body would use glucose only. Easy ride with glucose.

Yes. Glycogen may be present if you induce ketogenic state artificially by taking bhb preparations. This avenue is under research. So no comment.

Beta cells in Type 2

People with Type 2, however, recover beta cell function all the time. A study done in Seattle found that beta cells subjected to high glucose levels (about 288 mg/dl in a test tube) lost function rapidly. But when switched to a low-glucose environment (about 15 mg/dl), most of them recovered normal insulin production.

The longer the cells had stayed in the sugary solution, the longer it took them to recover. The researchers said that the damage might be irreversible after too much time in the glucose bath. They couldnā€™t say how long that time would be.

i'm confused. Ketones are more energy efficient that's ketones produce more energy than carbs, the oxygen consumption being equal.

Anaerobic state sets in when oxygen supply is not enough means instead of producing co2 & h2o body produces LA but oxygen is always there or we would die.

I don't want to run muscles on glucose. The nature has made provision. Ms store glycogen exclusively for themselves.

I still need to understand. Metabolic derangement v/s flexibility. But nature is already flexible. During exercise there are many hormones to raise bs. But yes when alternative energy efficient fuel is available body is smart enough to use that. By the way in day to day aerobic life glucose is the main fuel.

even nature has given carbs in abundance to fats. Body has many mechanisms to produce carbs but it has a limit can't be unlimited. It's our bad luck that we are poor at carbs.

Any physical exertion is aerobic in the begining but as the intensity increases body needs more oxygen which we can't supply. So metabolism becomes anaerobic. The end metabolite in anaerobic state is LA rather than co2and water. Body tries to wash out wash out Co2 and get more oxygen by increased respiration. You gyus are telling exactly opposite.

I'm not disputing meaning. I know what i'm saying.

Exercises : aerobic where you don't feel short of breath.

Anaerobic. You are short of oxygen.

Our body can be trained for both kinds of exercises. It then chooses the best fuel. No dispute that only glucose can be burnt during anaerobic state. One has to get trained for endurance exercises but long duration exercises tend to be anerobic. A trained person can delay the anaerobic state. Imho.

Yes. LA gets disposed off once oxygen is available.

Please tell me why wouldn't glucose burn in aerobic state ? Glucose is a good fuel in anaerobic state. Fine. But it remains main fuel in aerobic state also. The only difference is that in aerobic state the end products are co2 and water which our body can dispose off quickly and LA in anaerobic state. This LA accumulates in our body and being an acid is harmful.

Yes. Those who are doing endurance exercises take keto diet because ketones are energy efficient as fuel and body uses alternative available fuel when needed.

In short body prefers glucose as a fuel but ketones are energy efficient so preferred by endurance athletes

"Carbohydrate is the only nutrient that can be used in the absence of oxygen, that is why it is conserved." I don't agree that carbs are conserved for anaerobic metabolism. Body has no forecast system to predict that anaerobic state is ensuing. I agree with the rest of the views. And by those mechanisms body tries to procure glucose. Obviously glucose is the prefered fuel as long as available.

Anup bhaiya.

I'm not asking you to take carbs. Naturally carbs are prefered food. Carbs are available naturally in abundance so the humans have been made to use carbs. But we can use ketones also as an alternate fuel. So people who take keto diet can burn ketones for energy. Well when we have both of them - carbd and ketones - body consumes both but for nonD people carbs are the prefered fuel. I'm talking normal biochemistry. We can't be ketonemic naturally but we have to become ketonemic either by dietary management or fasting.

And see the nature's charishma. You need glucose and insulin to burn ketones but you don't need ketones to burn carbs. I'm talking about that magic.

The isomerization of glucose to fructose is part of the glycolysis cycle that converts glucose to pyruvate.

Although you know please read below

"Glycogen is your body's preferred energy source for exercise, as it's more readily available, writes Dr. John Berardi in "The Essentials of Sport and Exercise Nutrition." This means that glycogen is a better source of energy when training for athletic performance. According to the University of Massachusetts, decreased levels of glycogen correspond with an increased perception of fatigue; runners consuming 40 percent of their calories from carbs can't fully replenish their glycogen stores every day, whereas athletes with a 70 percent carb-based diet can."

So according to him it's better for athletes to consume 70% carbs for better performance. No. This i'm not saying.

"The process of breaking down non-carbohydrate substances, such as fats, to use as fuel is called gluconeogenesis" yaar isne to neo.... ki definition hi badal di.

"One of the main factors, aside from diet, that influences the ratio of fat burning to carb burning is exercise intensity. At low intensities your body will turn to fat for energy, but as you start to train harder, it will switch to burning more glycogen, ". He contradicts his previous statement.

"When training for athletic performance, however, you should ideally be looking to use glycogen as your main energy source. " šŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™Š

"For athletes, or anyone looking to maximize performance, glycogen is the better fuel for training. To ensure you're using more glycogen, consume plenty of carbs in your diet. Between 55 percent and 65 percent of an athlete's calories should come from carbs" šŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™ŠšŸ™Š

Bade bhaiya. Matter ko kaha se kaha le ja rahe ho.

Yes. Alcohol can be the prefered source but for its toxicity and effect on brain. Also it gets absorbed fast and used up but we need a constant supply of energy.

"We have to note that digestion is not the same as energy usage, otherwise you would just have explained why people would get fat if they ate carbohydrate." Ye apna anup bahut chillaya hai why we become fat on carbohydrate food. INSULIN.

Body uses both glucose and ketones as fuel whichever is abundant but glucose is prefered fuel. Now that doesn't mean i'm asking we all to take carbs please. Good for us to be ketotic. We are poor at carbs.

Ketones are energy efficient. So good when oxygen supply is scarce or short.

You post a link which you don't agree with.

According to my understanding in anaerobic state there are two fuels.

1) Glucose undergoing anaerobic metabolism which produce less energy ( 7 atps v/s 11 - correct me if wrong )

2) if ketoadapted or otherwise, ketones would use whatever oxygen is available to produce more energy. Anaerobic doesn't mean absence of oxygen. It's shortage of oxygen.

Now the guys in that link wanted 70% of the energy to come from glycogen i. e. carbs. Now this may be true for sprinters and short aggressive exercises ketones might be best for long duration exercises.

"This proves that glycogen is favoured for anaerobic work. " sorry my dear friend the link doesn't say that. They have used word " runner ". I don't think they have said anything about lc** - in against or favor.

"Tim Noakes and Steve Redgrave have found this to their cost, having developed type 2 from chronic consumption of a high carbohydrate diet." Again you are blaming carbs for t2d.

Also keep in mind that muscles also have glycogen to be used for flight and fight i. e. exercise
