The Banting/LCHF Thread

I tried that newfangled contraption called Bulletproof coffee a week back. Gave me a severe case of the runs... It does taste nice though.

I think you might need to ease into it by gradually increasing the butter and oil. This has been my breakfast for more than a year now.

That's the whole point... did you also feel energised about a half-hour afterwards for an hour or two? That's what happened to me.
 
why not visit caring candies ... chockies and all kinds of sweeties as well as other stuff.
 
I just made a LC chicken and avo pizza, wasn't bad, I packed with garlic.
Base mixture of almond, coconut and flax flours.
Looks a tad like road kill, but hit the spot

Interesting study published last week: http://www.cell.com/cell/abstract/S0092-8674(15)01481-6

Summary
Elevated postprandial blood glucose levels constitute a global epidemic and a major risk factor for prediabetes and type II diabetes, but existing dietary methods for controlling them have limited efficacy. Here, we continuously monitored week-long glucose levels in an 800-person cohort, measured responses to 46,898 meals, and found high variability in the response to identical meals, suggesting that universal dietary recommendations may have limited utility. We devised a machine-learning algorithm that integrates blood parameters, dietary habits, anthropometrics, physical activity, and gut microbiota measured in this cohort and showed that it accurately predicts personalized postprandial glycemic response to real-life meals. We validated these predictions in an independent 100-person cohort. Finally, a blinded randomized controlled dietary intervention based on this algorithm resulted in significantly lower postprandial responses and consistent alterations to gut microbiota configuration. Together, our results suggest that personalized diets may successfully modify elevated postprandial blood glucose and its metabolic consequences.

Carbohydrate intake affects different people in different ways, as I'm sure many of us have learned already!
