Starches combined with sugars

IIFYM

Pretend you can eat “your macros” worth of shit foods that Jack your appetite, then get upset at yourself when your appetite is out of control

Any stress and tracking goes bye bye

THREAD: CGMS - continuous glucose monitors

Having looked at 100s of CGMs let me tell you what you will learn...

let me tell you what you will learn

1/9
Lesson 1: Hidden carbs are everywhere
- you will find hidden sugar & carbs everywhere.

You didnt know you could find carbs/sugar but you will:
hotdogs, sausage, beef jerky, spices, condiments, sauces, soups, broths, basically everywhere you didnt look.

2/9
Lesson 2: Dont eat seed oils, vegetables oils, especially from restaurants.

Patients who switch to olive oil and avocado oil seem to have improvement not otherwise explainable on CGMs

THREAD ALERT 🚨

I can provide a little color here.

I was once a fat doctor...
Before I woke up, my medical advice to a fellow patient with obesity was empathetic... and it was the truth: “we all have lose weight and exercise, start by seeing a nutritionist”

This was my way of breaking the ice, sharing my own vulnerability...
When I was obese, my approach was to make patients feel comfortable, break down the barriers & get them to recognize/admitting the problem.

My thought was patients were in denial and I needed to proceed carefully and strategically.

THREAD 🚨

STRESS is the leading cause of weight regain in my practice.

whether physiology or excessive, emotional, psychiatric, mental or physical... Stress works in a number of ways to make you hungry

1/8
STRESS ⬆️ blood glucose through several mechanisms, and I’ll explain why that’s important later... follow me for a second.

Stress causes a perfect storm...

1) ⬇️insulin sensitivity

2) ⬆️glucagon which ⬆️ glucose production via glycogenolysis & GNG

2/8
3) ⬆️epinephrine which ⬆️ delivery of gluconeogenic substrates from the periphery, ⬇️ glucose utilization by several tissues, & ⬇️ insulin secretion

4) ⬆️Cortisol & growth hormone which ⬇️ glucose utilization & ⬆️ hepatic glucose production.

1/ #ME: Feeling a way about the incuriosity/obvious bias in the press. Thought I'd annotate an article with my thoughts/analysis.
2/ #CPS: The CTU won’t agree to the money until it gets the other items on what Jackson calls its “social justice bargaining” agenda.

#ME How do Black and Brown children get anything w/o a justice oriented agenda? Or, a demand? Better question: Why don’t they already have it?
3/ #CPS: That includes everything from affordable housing , a dramatic increase in “community schools”, enforceable caps on class size, mandatory hiring of support personnel written into the contract and more teacher prep time with potential to shorten the school day.

My wife and I switched to a whole-food plant-based diet almost a week ago. I’m down 6.6lbs in 5 days and my wife is down 3.2lbs (keep in mind she was already almost at her goal weight).
We’re getting all of the benefits you’re probably thinking of but here are a few ancillary ones:
Shopping was easy:

I went to the back of the store and got some Almond Milk then to the bulk bin to get some nuts, then I did the rest of my shopping in the produce section.

It took about 15 minutes. It usually takes me an hour because I had to go up and down every aisle

Food Import Ban.
The best policy by @MBuhari so far.
Let me tell you that Nigeria have the ability and potential to produce everything we consume in this country cheaply and better.
Before the #Thread, let me ask.
How many people can afford Imported food?
What do we even import?
According to a 2018 report by the CBN, Nigeria’s monthly food import bill fell from $665.4m in January 2015 to $160.4m as of October 2018.
Nigeria spends $22 billion on food importation annually.
This staggering figure exposes why Nigeria’s balance of payment has remained in the negatives whilst it continues to wallow in the doldrums of dependency. Nigeria imports more than it exports while we have vast arable lands and growing youth unemployment.

I did my own n=1 two week vegan keto experiment! And here’s what I learned! (A tweetorial)

**before people on either side of the diet wars get aggro on this thread: please take note and be kind: I am a 32 year old doctor, who did this self experiment for 2 weeks to learn more.
I am a physician with an open mind. I am not recommending any dietary changes for anyone based on my n=1 experiment, but I sure have developed multiple research questions from this experience!

So... here goes!
Fiber: in 14 days I ate 1288g fiber, averaging 92 g per day! I ranged anywhere from 85-105 grams of fiber per day. I realized that my fiber intake didn’t change much from my baseline, because fruit (which I had to cut back on for the 2 weeks) actually doesn’t have too much fiber

Watch these public comments! It's like a showdown of plant-based vs low-carb/keto.
Commenter #13 = @WaliPriyanka and she just dropped the MIC on this committee. "THE DGA is a Joke. Know your audience. Half of the country is prediabetic. Sugar intake should be 0%!"
@WaliPriyanka Commenter #7 = @low_carb_doc pushing for a low carb / keto based on science and practice.
