• Hope this was resolved, but it looks like this is a case that needs a deep dive beyond just diet. Hormones test may be a good start...

• Meghann I am not amMD.. My degree is Kinesiology.. The study human performance - physical/mental/ as well as metabolic. I applaud you. I have been studying this info since 2017. I too have a theory that 1/3 of the population will be react positively to many diets. But 1/3 will have some results and stall.. 1/3 will not improve at all. It is related to our familial DNA Inherited from our ancestors before us. I myself have a fasting insulin of 13.. The system says 5 to 25 is normal.. They is a thought it should be 4 or 5.. Which I subscribe too. For some 13 may be ok. However because of my familial genes 13 makes me store fat. My a1C is 5.7.. Trig/HDL RATIO .6 (6/10).. Less than 2 good. Cardiac Calcuim score 20 less 100 is good. I would love to be part of this space, would love to speak to you? 805-279-7760

• Any Updates @Jarrett Hammer?! We would love to hear what's been happening with your patient's over the last year! The question made me think to ask whether your patients do any resistance training? Dr Ben's Slow Maximum Resistance Training SMaRT , can be done at any age, at any level, adjusted to anyone's current state and ability, and built on. Building muscle mass/base can help empty the liver of glucose and fatty acids when working the muscles to failure. Dr Ben describes failure at any age or level, as working each muscle group as hard as the individual can (that could be getting out of a chair 10 times, or heavy leg press depending on age and strength!) building back insulin sensitivity .

• Hi Liz! All Grand Rounds are recorded, and the replays are available on the Education & Events Tab, under Grand Rounds , you have to be logged in, but you can access all of them there! And once you do a whole module, you can apply for CME/CMHE :) Enjoy! and hope you can be on the newest one live tomorrow, if possible, with Endocrinologist Roshani Sanghani 'The role of motivational interviewing in a metabolic health practice'

• I'm so sorry to see this level of fear and confusion around foods. I'm assuming that you have had a recent cancer diagnosis then went online to research the best anticancer diet. That space is a minefield of misinformation! There are resources on this site, backed up by peer-reviewed research. And there are videos from past Low Carb USA events posted on the Keto-Mojo website. Eggs are a perfect food, especially if you can afford to get them locally from organic farms. Same for meat, and yes, high quality is more expensive but you don't need hugh quantities. Dairy has some issues, especially for hormone-sensitive cancers. Email me at keto4cancer101@gmail.com and I will share a PDF. I will also share my food list. So many great options there! Fasting for long periods of time is not necessary to reduce glutamine. Long fasts can work against the need to stay well nourished and maintain muscle mass. Instead, there are nutritional strategies (amount, sources, timing of intake) that can help limit the impact.

• Also, glutamine must also be reduced to low levels. Both glucose and glutamine must be reduced, but glutamine can inly be reduced by fasting for long periods of time, or by pesticide medications (which are supposedly non-toxic) that are not readily available. So what is a person to do? Again, help!!!

• I am confused about the keto diet. It is my understanding that meat, dairy, eggs, and fat are the very poisonous foods that cause cancer in the first place. I understand how we can eat healthy meat. Just eat organic meats(very expensive) but how can we eat healthy animal fats? And eggs r definitely out, yes even organic eggs. Butter? Forget it. Pure poison. Ice cream? Pure poison. Help!!!
