    Limiting fat or carbohydrates

    Has anyone experimented with leaving mostly just one energy source? I mean, consuming large amounts of carbohydrates and limiting fat, or consume large amounts of fat and reduce carbohydrates. It would be to avoid a proportion an equitable distribution of macronutrients between fats and...

    How to practically apply the Randle “cycle” to food combining?

    in other words, how much fat per meal is too much and causes carbs to be wasted as lactic acid? I have heard different opinions on this in the community: some on here will go so far as to say the combining of the two is causing obesity ; but ray eats haagan daas etc. not really sure how to...

    Fatty acid oxidation - linking all illness (especially cancer) with stress and diet (fasting / low-carb)

    The study below is one perhaps the most comprehensive review published to date, challenging the medical dogma that cancer is a genetic/mutation disease. As the study aptly explains, the evidence, spanning as far back as Otto Warburg's original work on this disease, is overwhelmingly in support...

    Mastering Diabetes Program

    Did anyone of you heard of the „Mastering Diabetes“ program? It seems pretty aligned with the idea of the glucose / fatty acids substrate competition. (Randle effect) I am following a similar diet even though I additionally eat quite a lot of very lean animal meat (like chicken breast) for...

    Inhibiting lipolysis may treat diabetes

    Probably nothing surprising to my readers, but I think the study below is still important as it is one of the very few that openly state that diabetes is driven not by genetics but by excessive free fatty acids in the blood. While it does not mention it directly, the study is a great...

    Alzheimer's patients have lower metabolic rate and higher fatty acid oxidation

    Just a quick post in regards to a study that found the drug donepezil - commonly used to "treat" Alzheimer's Disease (AD) - may improve mitochondrial function in muscles. While the findings of the study in regards to donepezil are debatable and not particularly interesting, buried inside the...

    When should I eat my fat,

    I have heard information about the negative effects of free fatty acids and also mixing carbs and fats causing insulin resistance via the randle cycle. My fat intake is 76 grams and my carb intake 450 grams. I normally have a big breakfast consisting of carbs fat and protein altogether with...

    Lipolysis / FFA Drive Breast Cancer By Promoting Estrogen Signalling

    The evidence for the fat-loving nature of cancer just keeps on accumulating. During the last podcast with Danny and Ray, I mentioned that in cancer cells the enzyme fatty acid synthase (FAS) is actually part of the estrogen receptor (ER) complex. As such, anything that increases the...

    Increased Fatty Acid Synthesis (FAS) Is Simply A Sign Of Oxygen Deficiency / Low Metabolism

    Just a quick post on a study that provides insight as to how increased fatty acid oxidation (FAO) can "paradoxically" result in increased FAS as well, thus leading to a vicious cycle most commonly seen in diabetes and cancer. One of my recent posts discussed a much more recent study that...

    Acidosis (Warburg Effect) Drives Cancer Through Increased Fat Oxidation (Randle Cycle)

    Inhibiting Fatty Acid Synthesis (FAS) Dramatically Improves Sepsis Survival Rate

Sepsis is currently considered to be a condition of infectious (bacterial) etiology, driven by endotoxin. However, in light of the new findings it...

    Saturated Fats (SFA) Increase Glucose Oxidation While PUFA Decrease It

    This is great human study that addresses two key questions people have often asked Peat in regards to SFA vs. PUFA. As Peat has mentioned several times, during stress (exercise in this case) PUFA is preferentially oxidized while SFA is stored. The preferential oxidization of PUFA during stress...

    The Randle Effect In Action (human Study)

    This was a human study and it directly confirms Peat's views on what causes insulin resistance - elevated fatty acids, through the Randle effect, block oxidation of sugar. It would have been really helpful if the study looked at what happened after restoration of "normal" diet - i.e. how long...
