How should you break your fast?
There are about as many different strategies for breaking a fast as there are for fasting. Carbohydrate spikes blood glucose, which spikes insulin, which rapidly brings down your blood glucose - making you hungry. I do not need to be on a keto or very low carb diet, and my regular daily carb breakfast

Possible causes of Ataxia
🙂 This is a ‘long read’ and may be difficult to interpret, but never the less it’s interesting. What processes can cause ataxia? The pathophysiology of cerebellar ataxias is as diverse as the various neurological and systemic diseases affecting the cerebellum. Broadly classifying ataxias into genetic

Being pre-diabetic but hoping to reverse this (all markers going the right way) I have browsed a number of diabetic forums. Heart disease seems particularly prelevant amongst diabetics which is something I am trying to avoid and why I joined this forum although obviously there are numerous other factors

Combining P13K inhibitors with Keto diet for cancer.
Mouse study but shows the relationship between P13K inhibitors and how a very
low
carbohydrate
or ketogenic
diet
can allow them to work against cancer. They also compared metformin to the keto diet in this regard. It is pertinent because there are already 2 FDA approved P13K inhibitors.

Hospital admission bad asthma with no wheeze
Went to A&E this morning after a terrible night. Went in with a really tight chest unable to speak or get air in or out properly. Was expecting problems as no wheeze. But to my surprise the doctor looking after me could see I was struggling and not responding well to Salbutamol nebs. ITU was mentioned

In need of help!
My mother has Chronic Kidney Disease. Her kidneys only have 30% function due to damage from a medication she was put on. Now, she has to go on a low-carb low potassium diet, and we have no access to a dietitian since we're in a rural area! Her new kidney specialist has basically told her to do this without

Need advice about low carb diets.
After writing that now I have steroid-induced high blood sugar and high blood pressure quite a few members have told me that a low carb diet will help. I am starting tomorrow and am trying to plan things in advance. Did members just decide to stop eating foods like white bread, white rice. pasta and

LCHF, Keto... Intermittent Fasting seem to do some of us good - BUT, what about our immune system?
A lowered immune system can afflict many of us with hypothyroidism, adrenal issues, CFS/ME... stuff that many of us have accumulated over the years. How about this re influenza? https://medicalxpress.com/news/2019-11-ketogenic-diet-flu-virus.html?fbclid=IwAR1geNIfF_VU4Tl_f9Sc5Aj9c1hC7S-YlzUK_mMYfDFMBg-Fq6xSEMDfGrA
