Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 As a long time researcher and a student of statistics, I can say it is rare to find a 20% difference in a measure that is not significant, and especially if it occurs in an N of 1 study, which 's experiment certainly is. 20% of 2.0 is 0.4 and subtracting this from 2.0 yields a reading of 1.6. This is a significant difference speaking statistically. This means it was produced by controlled factors or controlled variables and it was not the results of any randomized factors. The whole purpose of scientific experimentation is to identify random factors and isolate them and to do experiments holding specific factors as constant as possible. One tries to identify as many significant factors (variables) as possible and control for their effect. I congratulate on doing a fine job in his month long experiment. Good Going!

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Hi Harry, You mentioned 20 . Is this points? Do you have a conversion from American creatnin numbers to Canadian numbers? Up here in Canada, we do it in hundreds. I will not argue that is going the right way in the numbers, just that one lab result does not prove anything 100 percent.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 thanks Harry! I thought the old psychologist in you would value that research *grin*. I am continuing to keep the constants in place over the next 2 months and plan to get the creatinine, ldl, and a1c drawn then to compare/contrast over a 4 to 5 month time frame. So far though, the initial research looks promising.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Stay tuned Ruth since I am conducting the same experiment over the next two months with all fixed constants in place. Lets keep our fingers crossed and hope to see even more improvement. Two more months of no sex... am I nuts?

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Read the number a character at a time. I mentioned 2.0 and not 20. I did mention 20%. It so happens that when you multiply 2.0 by 20% one gets 0.4. The difference between 2.0 and 1.6 happens to be a difference of 0.4. Most of the time a 20% difference is statistically significant.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 I do not know how Canadians count creatinine results. I imagine they just multiply the same results as it is in the USA by the number 100. Of course I am probably wrong.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 In order to figure out the conversion you'd have to find out what unit of measurement each country uses. For blood glucose Canada uses milimoles per litre, abbreviated as mmol/L, while the United States uses milligrams per deciliter, abbreviated as mg/dl. Once you find out the units of measurement it should be a fairly simple task to google it online and find out what the conversion is.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Hi Harry, We are misunderstanding each other. We in Canada read our creatinin numbers differently from you. So I can get a better grasp where your 2.0 is I wonder if there is a conversion just like the blood sugars have one from American to Canadian. Ruth Re: Hi , Read the number a character at a time. I mentioned 2.0 and not 20. I did mention 20%. It so happens that when you multiply 2.0 by 20% one gets 0.4. The difference between 2.0 and 1.6 happens to be a difference of 0.4.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 I began eating nuts, specifically walnuts and peanuts, about a year ago, and constipation has not been an issue ever since. Perhaps that addresses your question, and eating nuts is also a food, I am pretty sure, that would conform to the low carbohydrate diet presently being discussed in other messages.
