    The Low-Fat Era - A Big Fat Lie?

    You hear all the time from low-carb/keto/carnivore people that the introduction of low-fat products and the governmental push of low-fat diets is a major cause of today's health problems. So I actually tried to dig up nutrition statistics over the ages. If you actually look at the statistics...

    My Starch Paradox - Feel Really Good But Terrible Sleep

    I’ve read endlessly on this but I’m still a bit confused. I did “no starch” for a few months and felt super amazing - my face got less puffy, less water weight, amazing & fast digestion. All round inlove with the results... BUT I started to struggle sleeping throughout the night? I’ve never...

    Is microwaving a medium-size potato for say 4-5 minutes the same as boiling it for an hour? Does microwaving remove resistant starch from it just like boiling?

    Sometimes Sugar Is Better Than Starch

    Our ability to digest starch well depends on the amount of the enzyme amylase in our saliva according to Chris Masterjohn. Salivary amylase begins converting starch into sugar within our mouths. Masterjohn believes that this converted sugar sends signals to the body that carbohydrate is coming...

    Does Slow Eating Help? Salivary Amylase And Flow Rate?

    I've noticed that when I eat fast, I get more endotoxin/estrogen symptoms. If I eat slowly, I don't get them. This is with regards to eating starchy foods. When I eat slowly, and "savor" my food, I end up producing more saliva while chewing. This could help by doing more amylose...

    Juxtapose these two takes on the subject from Danny Roddy. The first is here (expressed in Mr. Roddy's inimitable style) in "Carbon Dioxide: The Real Reason Safe Starches Are a Joke" at http://www.dannyroddy.com/main/2012/5/21/carbon-dioxide-the-real-reason-safe-starches-are-a-joke.html...
