Blood Sugar Spikes..... so what ??

All,It is fact that your blood sugar/insulin response curve will be more varied on this diet... vs. the Mcdougall diet.My question is - does this really matter ?Does anyone know if the "fruit sugar spike" causes too much insulin to be released... or high triglycerides ?Scientific information would be great to see......RD.See More

"Im thinkin 28-30 bananas per day, some berries... and a couple of pounds of greens per day should do the trick. I may blend in a pineapple or apples as well."

Waterfast at TrueNorth - starting day14

Posted on June 27, 2012 at 6:15am 4 Comments 0 Likes

Yesterday was a very long day. HEAVY elimination had me stapled to the bed all day. Today is a bit better.

I chatted with the crew again about eating a lot of fruit when I break..... the Dr. is supposed to chat with me... they need to get it ordered soon....mangoes and melon are really sounding good right now !!!

I have about 8 days left... hoping the severe detox will end soon so I can get out and about a bit more....

Water Fast @ TrueNorth - starting week2

Amazing thus far. I lay down and am "stapled" to the bed. Something nasty coming outta me for sure. All I can do is sleep this week. I needed this more than I thought. Out with the bad!

Looking forward to week2 - although food is starting to occupy my mind a bit.

Water Fast @ TrueNorth - Day3 Started

A great experience thus far. I have the strong taste of metal in my mouth... and a sensation of "healing" in the tooth socket where the steel post was. Also - showed the doc the "nail dirt" that keeps coming out from under my nails.... he found that most interesting.

Will finish 21 days on the fourth of July... this will be a tremendous healing endeavor.

Yes drink enough water (I suggest min 3 ltres) so you are peeing clear 10-12 times a day. Rest is always good! Balance your play/work time with rest time, don't be afraid to aim for 12hrs of sleep. Be consistent on this lifestyle and candida issues will become a thing of the past in not time :)
