I'd be interested to hear if the nutritional curriculum Amy was exposed to actually reflected all the lovely new research / wisdom we have at our fingertips! I'm considering doing some coursework, but don't want to find I'm reading a text book from the 1980's espousing a low fat high carb existence!
31:00 - the thyroid discussion - annual checkup with GP in June 2022 showed elevated TSH (11) and pretty normal T4 - with exactly the issue Amy's noted. I told Doc, leave it with me. I started eating a sheet of nori (dried seaweed) every day. 6 months later, TSH halved, T4 and T3 great. I had lived in Japan for 6 years and realised I was likely just suffering low iodine vs all that I got when I lived there!
yes, I wish I still had my "'round Tuit"
There's no doubt in my mind that when you follow a whole foods, as minimally processed and highest quality as you can, low carb, higher fat and protein, you do not feel hungry for many hours after a meal (which takes a lot longer to eat btw) and likely eat - from a calorie perspective - less. I fear though, that the comment regarding 'you do not feel starved or denied' doesn't take into account that many folks believe that they deserve cake, ice cream, fast food etc. and that NOT having these as a regular part of their diet is a hardship they're unwilling to bear. I'm able to keep fit, slim and in good metabolical knick at the age of 60 because I see junk food for what it is, not actually 'food' and with undesireable consequence. Essentially, we can't underestimate the psychological side of diet.
I’m looking forward to thyroid as I’m hypothyroid
Ms. Berger seems to have a lot of common sense! More and more I can see why one diet doesn't work for everybody. Recently I came up with a little indicator name to describe our diets, I call it the Inuit-Pima indicator. My wife is Korean and the Koreans are genetically similar to the Mongolian people and Inuits. The Inuits live up near the North Pole and were surviving mainly on a carnivore diet - the way my wife can eat the meat I believe she is part Inuit! I on the other hand have GI problems if I eat a lot of meat. However I can handle the carbs better than she can. I've been prediabetic, however my wife has been dealing with type 2 for over thirty years! I've been reading about the Pima in Arizona and Mexico. Both the Pima and Inuit are prone to diabetes. However the traditional diet of the Pima is actually higher carb which the Mexican Pima do well on - the Arizona Pima aren't doing well on the standard American diet (what a surprise). On a spectrum, I see me leaning more to the Pima side, my wife - Inuit. So I don't bug her so much anymore to try my low-carb vegetarian diet. But getting back to the video I've often wondered why so many can't lose weight - thyroid.
Interesting- I paid to get my own fasting insulin.
Curious about that however. Is it looking back a few months, days?
And a basic lipid, how far back is it looking at. Should we keep testing every 30 days?
Thank you
Oh! How about what A1c do you like Dr?
All these markers can be checked every 2-3 months.
