Guest guest Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 hi it isnt even necessary to eat an enzymless diet on the atkins or any low carb diet, we eat raw butter, coconut oil, fermented raw fish, raw liver, raw veggies etc. i think eliminating a whole food group (except for medical reasons, such as candida) is foolishness and imbalance lv joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hi Joe, I agree, the TRUE representation of the Atkins diet was presented by me with a link in an earlier post which appeared to have been overlooked. Absolutely the enzymes are readily consumed on this diet if one follows it properly. Which outlines just the foods you mention. The link I gave also talks about how the diet works, what results are achieved and what it helps (heart disease being only one of them). Again, the findings of Weston Price also back this diet up. Lemons and tomatoes are also allowed on this candida diet...yet they are " technically " a fruit. I have not yet heard of the exclusion of vegetables...I eat loads of them, raw, stir fried, steamed, whatever. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. I've seen enough testimonies on the other group and heard from people here to know the diet works for them. > hi > > it isnt even necessary to eat an enzymless diet on the atkins or any > low carb diet, we eat raw butter, coconut oil, fermented raw fish, raw > liver, raw veggies etc. > > i think eliminating a whole food group (except for medical reasons, > such as candida) is foolishness and imbalance > > lv joe > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Well, I can tell you that I was on a high-carb, low-sugar, low-fat diet for years and now have Candida. I felt really good at first but had to be extremely strict about everything I ate with no to little processed foods and as little sugars as possible. But, all my digestive problems started not long after going on that type of diet. I couldn't even eat raw veggies after a while as I just could not digest them. Had big problems with diverticulitis. Now after being on the Candida diet and eating a lot of meat, fats, etc, I can eat veggies raw again with no problem. No more diverticulitis problems either. I would not recommend a high-carb, low-fat diet it to anyone. Gail > > > > I happen to agree about the Atkins diet. SO many think more > protein and > > meat helps candida. I disagree.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 hi gail i think people may have different requirements nutritionally, and from experience i seem to do better if i eat alot of lightly steamed, veggies and sauerkraut with each meal, for example for breakfast a plate of broccoli with butter and coconut oil and 1 egg dinner, raw fish, fats and again plate of broc, spinach, corriander and tea, another plate of veg and a raw egg drink (two eggs) and some tomatoes so visually it looks higher carb but using fitday u can see most calories coming from fat then protein then carbs, cos low carb veggies are very low in calories. whereas some people will do great almost eliminating carbs, i do not, my experience with diet has led me to believe in metabolic typing by Dr mercola, although i havent looked into it properly yet, lv joe > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 I agree, there must be some misinformation about the atkins diet, he promotes eating a wide variety of veggies, cooked and RAW and doesn't neccessarily promote a HUGE amount of meat, it depends on the person as to their requirements. And I believe saturated fats are good for you, I was on a low fat diet and got sicker than ever before, mentally and physically. THe diet is basically taking out sugars, grains and fruits for a time then adding them back in slowly, sound familiar, like the candida diet? Also, on bacon and sausages he strongly suggests eating nitrate free and organic meats. His info seems to go along with Weston Price and Dr. Abram Hoffer from what I've seen. I have Dr. Atkins' Vita-Nutrient Solution, http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Atkins-Vita-nutrient-Solution- /dp/0743429974/ref=sr_1_1/105-9114644-3044409? ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1184422457 & sr=1-1 And have found it an invaluable reference to vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc, ect,ect, all natural solutions to ailments most mds would perscribe drugs for. He believes beneficial bacteria to be one of the most important additions to health and well-being. and as for enzymes, he's all for them. I do believe we are all different and some people do very well on a vegetarian diet but some of us do much better eating meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 //> I agree with you, Duncan. All of the research I have done over the years leads me to believe that a low-carb. high natural fat diet is optimal as human nutrition. My favorite reference is 'Life Without Bread.' The proof is certainly in that pudding. Natural fats are not the culprit -- it's mainly the carbs, certainly sugar (be it fruit, honey, or from the cane), and rancid-prone new-age poly oils, among other things.

But from what I understand fields where wheat is planted become devoid of nutritients very quickly. Whereas animals provide source for fertilizer.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi , There's a couple of indicators for pre-diabetes. The HGBA1C reading is one indicator. Anything about a 6.0 is considered diabetic, and I was 5.9! Last time I checked I was 5.2.. normal reading. My fasting blood glucose levels were not as high, at 98 (above 110 is diabetic range I believe) but now they are 78. Some of the symptoms I had were ravenous hunger, severe cravings, difficulty with eating even modest amounts of carbs or even something that tasted sweet with no carbs (like stevia). I still find I have to follow a low carb diet but I don't have ravenous hunger or cravings anymore. I took my lab tests shortly before starting this diet, and then 1 year after starting the diet, and then again 6 months later, and all my lab tests are great.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 That's funny Debby, because I have a fasting sugar reading of 6.7 and my doctor told me I am pre diabetic. They say it should be under six really, so that is conflicting information isn't it? I don't get any symptoms at all no thirst no cravings, although I do get tired but put that down to being overweight. The doc didn't seem bothered about it except to say that I should cut out sweet stuff, which I don't eat that much of anyway. Dee     --  <The calender of the Theocracy of Muntab counts down, not up.

I attribute some of that to the coconut oil though for sure.
