There is a substantial lag between knowledge & data

11 years ago, @LOWCARB_TOOLBOX started on a low carb diet. He lost over 100lbs & has maintained that weight loss for 11 years

He visited my clinic earlier this year & we were talking about an interesting phenomenon

He described a process where he would eat pizza, and several hours later be hungry again. Same with Chinese food, same with thanksgiving dinner.

If he ate food high in carbs (+/- fat) he would never be satiated.

We talked about the existing data at the time...

He drew this drawing based on that conversation and based on anecdotal data we had discussed from a cohort of CGM data.

Fast forward 11 years later, and after his awesome cartoon... What happens...

We begin to see this enter the literature.

Last week @davidludwigmd published an interesting finding

Has anyone seen it before?

Yes, 11 years ago Brian Wiley, knew this phenomena quite well and understood it quite well.

And the knowledge of this phenomena although it hadnt existed in the medical literature until this week, made Brian an excellent health coach.

Not only does he have knowledge...

But also experience and skin in the game.

4 Months ago Brian joined our practice along with @AmyDee1001 as a ACE certified personal trainer and health coach.

I cannot think of two better people to work with.

Both have amazing insight and experience.

Over the past several months they have worked for FREE to provide relief, accountability, and a forum to talk online on Zoom meeting that have attracted 80-100 people regulalry.

Moving forward they will be leading our group coaching program for a nominal fee of $10/month

If you have any interested or any questions, reach out to my practice, or visit the site for more details.
