Proper food
Had a weird scare today. My heart was feeling weird, as if it was getting weaker. I felt really tired and could not concentrate much. All interactions at work felt exhausting.

Reading blood lab tests?
Ladies - I get a monthly blood level test aka CBC. This test is separate from the CA 15 which relates to tumor markers. Eventually I meet with my oncologist who, to date, says my numbers are good. Can anyone explain please what I should pay attention to on the CBC? I understand white and red blood cell

Fructosamine test
The difference in the tests is that the Fructosamine measures the average over a period of 2-3 weeks, while the HbA1C measures the average over a period of 2-3 months. The HbA1C test reveals more long-term glucose control, while the fructosamine test reveals short-term. Fructosamine testing may be used

Science shows meat causes insulin spikes
I would be interested in low-carbers take on the science presented here which shows how paleo and low carb diets cause insulin spikes by as much as just sugar, far more than carbohydrates. Please don't just criticise Dr Greger - I am talking about the science here, not the messenger. Also I don't want
