hahahahhahahhahaha
then i started peating and it was gone in 3 months. stopping consumption of PUFAs ended my problems with sugar in 3 months. i became able to eat 10x the amount of sugar i used to, without any discomfort, and my blood sugar now happens to be lower than it's been for years.
Well, sometimes I do wonder if it's a genuine newcomer. Of course, I ALWAYS assume the best. :) (A joke.)j. said:sorry about my reaction. i had insulin resistance. so much that i could only eat very moderate amounts of sugar. a little more would make me feel bad. i tried many things and nothing worked very well (vitamin d, chocolate, are supposed to help with insulin resistance). then i started peating and it was gone in 3 months. stopping consumption of PUFAs ended my problems with sugar in 3 months. i became able to eat 10x the amount of sugar i used to, without any discomfort, and my blood sugar now happens to be lower than it's been for years.

Now now J, Dont be nasty. When I first heard of Ray I first thought the above true and was a sugar and saturated fat hater. I, like you had the sense to read into it more, eventually learning about the physiology and how it all works.
We shouldn't laugh at newcomers, don't want to drive them away!

Matt, Do you have this problem or are you just trying to stimulate discussion? I always go back to where Peat says that sucrose is just for emergencies and that he advises fruit. Fruit would have the benefit of other nutrients and maybe be a good way to start.PeatFeat said:Just trying to stimulate some thought provoking conversation!

Of course, what is an emergency situation? Out of fruit.. I always thought that was it. But, maybe certain health problems put you in an emergency situation too.
My understanding is to take small amounts of sugar (fruit?) at a time with protein. As your body eases into it, you'll be able to wait longer between these meals. Milk is good for this.

Both, but it's a genuine concern for myself. I don't feel like I am currently insulin resistant, but just worry I might become so If I eat too much sugar and eat very frequently. However, I got most of my calories from fruit over the summer and the first thing I did regarding the Peat diet was reduce PUFA's so that's good. Iv'e never been able to tolerate milk since my acne started so that's not an option rigt now.
Where I said sucrose, read table sugar/white sugar. When I say sugar, I can mean fruit or white or honey or etc, so I'm trying to say white sugar or table sugar for the emergency stuff, to be clear.Birdie said:Matt, Do you have this problem or are you just trying to stimulate discussion?

WOE? Are you saying that taking Vit A supplement with milk would help with the bad reaction to milk?nwo2012 said:Acne could be a Vit A deficiency. Try it with milk.
This WOE does NOT cause insulin resistance, that is purely nonsense.

Also, of course, Ray never means to use fruit in coffee, so I assume that table sugar in coffee is always okay and not just for emergencies. I'm just thinking... But, still, in keeping with the spirit of things, I use honey in coffee whenever I can. For me that is in lattes, not brewed coffee, for taste reasons.
I get a lot of my sugar from orange juice and next comes fruit. It is easier to get more sugar from fruit in the summer. We're using canned fruit now. Canned with sugar and water only. Comes in glass. It helps to bake it, taste wise.
