I asked my last doctor for a continuous glucose meter and a fasting insulin test. She said no to both. I am now getting a new doctor.

[@karenharju6919]

Walmart sells a blood sugar monitor and test strips. You don't need a prescription to buy it. While it is not continuous monitoring it can provide insight. What is your fasting glucose, blood sugar before a meal and 2 hours after. This way you know how a food affects you. Lots of factors can contribute to your blood sugar leve, food, stress, water intake, physical activity , sleep, metabolic age, etc.

[@PhyllisWalls-nr2tl]

@ceresfast2414 Two of my doctors refused to order fasting insulin, on several occasions that I asked them. I had to go to a functional medicine doctor to get the tests I wanted. Shes on the carnivore diet herself. I called a locally owned pharmacy (not Walgreens)& asked who the doctors are who support low carb, meat based diet. You can also google: low carb doctors near me

Hello, My name is Christine & I'm a 50-year-old woman who has found remission from chronic Rheumatoid Arthritis. I was on a weekly biologic injectible medication called "Enbrel," with other prescriptions like Celebrex, Methotrexate, Tramadol & even Prednisone at times. Having RA & taking these prescriptions continued to weaken my immune system, creating insulin resistance & obesity starting at the age of 27 when I was diagnosed & labeled. I was eating the Standard American Diet "SAD." Eating plants, beans, legumes, vegetables, fruit, seeds, nuts, grains, sugar, seed oils, high carbohydrate food & staying low-fat. The standard, eat less & move more models that we all try to follow. I was sick of my joint pain, fatigue, inflammation & weighing over 220 lbs "size 18-20". So, I decided to start a high fat & whole foods ketogenic lifestyle in September 2019. I stopped eating high carbohydrate foods, grains, sugar, seed oils, & processed foods. I've adjusted my eating to mainly carnivore "meat based." I love eating cow, pig, chicken, lamb, fish, seafood, eggs, butter & dairy. Occasionally, I'll have some berries or vegetables like a little onion, sweet potato, or avocado. I enjoy drinking water, unsweetened sparkling water, coffee & tea. This delicious & satiating way of eating has helped my continued weight loss of 60lbs, severe joint pain, body inflammation, chronic fatigue, weakness, and other metabolic health conditions like anxiety, high blood pressure & pre-diabetes. In April 2023, I started implementing lifting heavy weights, strength training & balance exercises 3-4 times a week. I love hiking, biking, RV camping & challenging myself physically & mentally. It has been a new life for me! You can seek your true health every day, starting with what you eat/drink & don't eat/drink. RA recovery is my "why" every day to continue living a healthy lifestyle. This is my amazing health journey. Thank you, Christine Peters

[@laurengianna9944]

[@ef5842]

My reply to her comment is, Good for you, and thanks for sharing. I also switched to the above diet Christine has, except, no eggs, dairy or butter, due to an egg and dairy allergy autoimmune response from Hashimotos. I am also allergic to wheat. So my health started to impoive on a meat and vegetable diet, omitting rice and potatoes. I do have an occassional potato, and consume it as a remedy to relax my nerves. Lately, I've had to pay closer attention to rebuilding nerves like for sciatica, eyes, brain, fingers, hearing with Bentfotiamine mega B1, and other B's in normal dose, up to B9, plus feverfew herb, and seeds like pumpkin, flax, chia, and hemp have been a big blessing in nerve repair. Intermittent fasting has helped me keep weight in perfect range, and my face is as tight as any youthful person. I only have a few wrinkles. Only surgery can make a difference there. A big Thank You, to Dr. Berry and other doctors on You Tube about intermittent fasting and all their other methods for better health!

[@I-build-crafts]

I spoke with my doctor yesterday and asked him if he could support me in my efforts to stay away from taking medications, and he said no because the powers that be won't pay him and this is how he makes a living. I had to ask him to explain when he said NO. I thought I was hearing him wrong. It's the same thing as being incentivized to get patients on prescriptions. Seems like the government and the drug companies are in bed with each other. I mean why are the drug and food industry together in one administration, The food and drug administration? Corruption at its best.

[@KCCAT5]

They are all in bed together big Agra and big Pharma are all in bed together and of course the government supports this that's why we need to go off and be our own advocates for ourselves I walk to my own drum beat I'm a rebel naturally and this lifestyle and walking away from all of the powers that be came naturally for me. I only go to the doctor to get blood work done when it comes to anything else I tell them hands off because I know what they're doing they're looking for a reason to pull me deeper into their web and I won't do it

Everyone should have a CGM for free. Physicians need to wear them and see how they do under the recommendations they give us diabetics. They need to understand what insulin resistance means. Last week in the hospital I was on the cardiac floor and I felt like I knew more than they did as far as diet and carbs. They wanted me to get 45 carbs for breakfast, 45 for lunch and 60 for supper. My base dose of insulin was 15 units plus a few extra units. My blood sugar was higher and higher. I didn't eat all carbs I was encouraged to order. If I tried to order more protein I was told no because of the fat content. No egg salad, no to a hamburger. I was actually discharged with a blood sugar of 308.

[@pamisntcraiganymore]

I was put on a low carb diet when recently in the hospital. In what world would a hamburger with a bun be considered low carb? I had asked for a patty and the gave me the bun anyway. What the heck? It was so hard to get enough meat there.

Why do I think that when my grandmother did some baking, and I'm almost 70, it wasn't the end of my health. Could it be because wheat has been so unbelievably modified to spike our blood sugar? Could it be that we ate whole foods rather than crap in a box? Could it be that we didn't live on soda and fruit juice? Could it be that we weren't inundated with seed oils and trans fats? Could it be that baking was occasional and not endless and sitting everywhere in every food store, gas station, coffee shop....name it? Could it be that we went outside and lived instead of pointing our noses at computer screens, large and small? At this point, I feel like walking into a grocery store is like walking into a giant gas station junk food spot. Even frozen vegetable sections are next to nothing anymore with very little choice in what's managed to remain there. We have always grown our own veggies in the summer, we look for organic in the winter, we mostly eat meat now, we have always had our own hens for eggs, and we move our bodies at work and at leisure. And we feel so much better.

[@LauraB.335]

If you find it hard to even think about giving up the sweets right now, start with shortening your eating window. Start with where you are, which sounds as if you’re eating all day long, and shorten it to maybe 12 hours, focusing on having whatever you want but in distinct meals with no snacks. Make the sweet treats you have a dessert for your meals. Then, shorten it to 10, then 8, then maybe even 6. Do it over a period of weeks and see how it goes. As far as exercise, only do it if you’re feeling inspired and don’t worry about it until then. Eventually, it gets to the point where you’re eating less of the junk just because the eating window is shorter. Just do it as you’re inspired and try not to force yourself to do anything. Add in more protein and fat to your meals, and see how that affects your eating habits. Then go from there. I know it’s hard to imagine, but people who do this often lose interest in eating so much junk, especially once they feel satiated from the protein and fat.

I am 66 and have been overweight since my first (of two) children. My low carb/ketovore journey still uses Truvia, Stevia etc. for baking a few desserts; but I am on this for life, so I am okay with taking it slowly😊.

I'm not sugar addicted fortunately but I am addicted to cheese. So I have a small piece each day. I've just started carnivore. I had a go at keto but found it difficult to not eat mountains of veg. I love veg. I was referred to a dietician as I refused to take statins. At the time I ate meat and vegetables but no carbs (bread rice potatoes) I ate one large meal a day and a snack of cheese in the morning. The dietician said I must eat carbs, cut down on veg and eat more meat. I did try. I was also given diuretics. So I lost 10 kgs in three weeks which I think was fluid. I then had a course of steroids and a course of antibiotics for a skin problem. Totally messed my stomach up. Weight now the same as it was. I take pre/probiotics, magnesium, iodine, D3/K , plus diuretics, blood thinners, high blood pressure tablets (I've been able to reduce the dose), 1 a day multivitamin and minerals, an antidepressant.

I've found it a lot of work to bring about a change in my diet - thinking, learning, analysing and decisionmaking, but there is one aspect I'm grateful for. That is, I am not greatly troubled by cravings or temptations to cheat. I can look forbidden foods in the face (or in the fridge) and not be tempted to eat them. Once I decide against them, that's it. I think that many people have very little self-control. It's like a muscle that needs to be exercised to have any great strength. PS I don't want to appear to be holier that thou, I have considerable trouble with my mobile phone addiction!

I made the mistake of not staying on HRT 15 years ago and no amount of high fat carnivore ( after 9 months) has helped me one bit. All of my menopause symptoms of muscle loss , bone loss (4 inches) memory loss and more, are still destroying my life, & carnivore doesn’t fix it at all.

I'm going to be 59 this year and looking back over the decades, and nobody in my family ever had type 2 diabetes, no one really had heart disease regardless of how much they weighed, smoked YES! SMOKED! Or how much alcohol they consumed. No one had metabolic issues, I had one set of grandparents that would lay down and have a conniption fit if there wasn't Pepsi in the fridge, regular Pepsi, sugar & all, both smoked and one loved his vodka, neither one had diabetes, never went to a nursing home, neither were on meds, my other grandparents smoked like chimneys and drink like fish and again no one ever saw a nursing home or was on any kind of meds. Of my four grandparents and both my mom and dad and myself no diabetes. We always cooked from scratch when I was growing up we had cakes, cookies, pies and homemade cinnamon rolls & apple turnovers (pie crust with fresh apples frosted with glaze) for breakfast in the winter, meat and potatoes for supper and on weekends we made homemade pizza. I wore a size 3 and my mom who is the better part of 6 ft tall didn't weigh much over 150 lb and only one of my grandparents was obese. We were too poor to buy processed food and chips but my God could we bake! Crisco was always in our pantry and we used it in everything! By the time I was 30 my cholesterol was only 150. So like anybody else out there scratching their head I cannot figure out what the hell is going on with our culture that everybody is obese little kids are obese and have diabetes and heart disease like only a few old people used to. So what is going on? I keep asking myself what is in today's food that is doing this?? I still cook from scratch and granted, I don't have cakes cookies and pies in the house all the time, I gave up sugar in my twenties and I just can't stand the taste of anything sweet so I don't have a problem there but I think it's wheat. That was one ingredient that's been in my lifestyle all my life and I honest to God believe the wheat that we have today is different than the wheat that my family members & I grew up on. Right now as it stands, I will not have standard wheat in my pantry at all!! As far as I'm concerned, today's wheat is all fucked up! I use Einkor, buckwheat & spelt ONLY. If I want pizza I make it from scratch, if I want chicken strips again I make those from scratch, even French fries. I don't buy any dough, again it's made from scratch. Surely it can't be people are eating out from McDonald's and other fast food joints so much that they have this problem? Sure that contributes but people can't be eating 100% of their meals from processed food are they? I'm not going to say anything bad about people wanting to test their blood sugar, and I think if we have the degree of metabolic dysfunction in our society that people need to be aware of where the hell their blood sugar is at OFTEN!! I'm lucky here in Wyoming we have Wyoming health fairs and you can get discounted blood draws done where you live in most communities out here and I find out for myself without a doctor where my numbers as far as cholesterol blood sugar liver function kidney and heart function all of that without having to go to a doctor. I've worked in the medical field for 40 years so I can look at my lab results and know what I've got going on and I make dietary and lifestyle changes accordingly and trust me, if I was having a blood sugar issue I would be monitoring my blood sugar all the time, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that in today's climate. Currently I have a wheat free diet with the exception of einkorn and spelled which I eat very sparingly and I have Incorporated a great deal of meat in my diet and natural fats but no seed oils whatsoever! I do have to watch my carbs and I feel that I'm metabolically broken and I'd like to see that fixed. I went vegetarian/vegan in 2013 and that was the WORST thing I've ever done to my body, my weight skyrocketed, my metabolism broke and my health went way down hill, my nutrition was in the toilet and my gut was wrecked. I simply went back to the diet that I had growing up (remember the 4 Food Groups of the 70's?) and it had meat and fresh vegetables, and an occasional dessert and lost 40 lb even though I was postmenopausal. Still in recovery... But improving every year

Dr Barry, I was a vegan, doing keto thanks to Dr Boz. My big question going into this change of diet was, so how do I know what’s going on inside me so that I can respond to make improvements. really how can you make an improvement and know that indeed you have unless you have someway to track it. So I gotta device tracks, my blood sugar, glucose, as well as my ketones, call Mojo. It was the best investment for my health. I quickly learned how food that was eating was affecting me. Having discovered that I was prediabetic, and having a Doctor Who never talk to me about what I could do to change those prediabetic numbers to something that was normal I found using this device was answering my questions on a daily level. So happy I found a way to track what my intake is doing to me. At one point in conversation, I happen to mention that I had a Glucose ketone device to my doctor and she responded by saying. Why would you do that.??……. my first blood glucose reading was 167, that’s rather high. And I had no idea what my daily blood glucose readings were now that I know I want to get that number lower and gives me an incentive to look at what I’m eating. To track what I am eating. And make improvements to reduce my glucose levels. And I don’t wanna become diabetic like my brothers and my husband. And they all died due to complications being type two diabetic. If I can make changes and see improvements and not be declared type two diabetic in the future, I’ve done a good thing for my health. So that opened up my eyes too how I need to be proactive in my healthcare. You’re one of my favorite doctors to listen to because I learn a lot from you. And knowledge is power. Thank you, Dr. Barry.

Thanks to Dr. Berry here, I have kept weight down, but recently find my food saity helped by adding seeds like flax, pumpkin, hemp, and chia, almonds and walnuts, fish oil, olive oil and coconut. I should start adding sesame. So, my recipe for breakfast or snack is only about 2 teaspoons of this mix in a cup. I flavor it with real salt from Utah, and a little fish oil or olive oil, and cayenne pepper. It can be a morning breakfast with a cup of espresso with MCT oil. Aside from this and my cruciferous and onion meat or salmon dish later on, I will add occasionally an apple or orange or berry snack, and let letmons and limes assist in cleansing. I love my seed snack mix recipe with a cup of coffee, but I notice it slows digestion. I think if I can get more sunshine, that would bea missing necessity. But, I am interested now in getting the CGM and do more intermittent fasting from the fruits, and see how that goes.

I’ve found that the Costco steaks are SO much better than the grocery store. Maybe try this alternative if you live within an hour. It’s worth the drive. Pricey but so much better in flavor. But the prime or choice ribeye. Or we buy a tenderloin & cut it into steaks. Or even Eggs scrambled or hold back a few yolks & add them in last so they can be really moist. I’ve done sockeye salmon from Trader Joe’s & loaded it w spices to cut fishy taste. Or tuna. I too, fail every 15 or 20 days. I’ve been analyzing & sometimes I just didn’t eat enough the day before. Or I watched the news. And that’s stressful. So I’m careful what I expose myself to. I’m almost 60 and though my weight is just a few pounds (5-10) over normal, I’m strongly addicted. I feel like it’s a lifelong battle. Even when I fail, I get up, dust myself off & get back on the horse. Or cow in this instance. Kelly hogan advises no diet drinks. But I drink my electrolytes with a stevia blend. Without it, my muscles cramp. So considering trying only water, once I run out of my electrolyte blend. Sometimes it helps if I don’t eat after 6pm. But the other day… it was strong… I could not talk myself down from a small binge.

[@user-qe7jb6hq2l]

@tamlaland3777 think of an adult body containing 9 pints of blood. It only takes 1 teaspoon of sugar to get a blood glucose reading of 100. Carbohydrates break down differently depending on type of fiber and natural sugar content. Carbohydrates are found in all plant foods, and most dairy from the lactose. Processed carbs or carbohydrates are foods that have been altered from their original whole food state. Think-grain flours, sugars, syrups, juices, instant mashed potatoes, tolled oats, etc. Whether consumed independently or combined into cereals,cakes, cookies, breads, etc because of the altered state, they are more quickly absorbed into the body causing a rapid rise in your body’s blood glucose. That rapid increase causes a rise in the hormone insulin to attempt to shuttle the glucose into cells for energy. Over time the cells become resistant to insulin so the blood sugars remain high-yet you feel hungry still. So you eat more-adding to the high blood glucose problem-which is toxic to your organs-so your body (pancreas) produces ever increasing amounts of insulin in an attempt to deal with the high glucose problem. Excess insulin is inflammatory and is also known as the fat storage hormone. As long as insulin is present, the body will not burn its own fat stores. Reducing carbohydrates, reduces blood glucose levels, which lowers the body’s insulin response. Keeping insulin low allows the body to burn its own stored fat. Reducing carbohydrates, especially the processed variety is the first step in reducing blood glucose which will lower the insulin response from your body. Depending on the level of dis function in the body, even higher carbohydrate Whole Foods may not be a wise choice. Think leafy greens for least carbohydrates. Many people still have inflammation from lectins and oxalates found in plant foods and opt for a carnivore diet.

[@user-qe7jb6hq2l]

@tamlalaland3777 I sort of got lost in my explanation and deviated from what you were looking for I think. It is usually recommended to check your glucose first thing in the morning. After an overnight fast, blood glucose should be under 100 mg/dl (in US measurements) it is also recommended to check 2 hours after meals. If you document your readings you will see how the food choices you make are affecting your readings & your body!I’m not diabetic, but chose to spend the money on the monitor which is not a budget breaker-the test strips are expensive unless you are diabetic & they are covered by medical insurance.
