    Steve Bennett Reporting back after day 1 without food.

    “Just finished day 1. Cycled 112 miles non stop over 11.2 hrs, all 5 riders ok. Legs ache slightly, but good energy... Of course if we had done same distance while eating, would have to have stopped and suffered dips while digesting”

    I do believe you are a clueless. Trying to be somebody you aren’t. Stick to visas and truck driving. That is about your limit.

    Here is the Science.

    “All looking quite remarkable, have a look at the blood glucose level, our bodies are making sufficient amounts to get us through the trip. We will also at the end of the trip show our other bloods Hal, triglycerides etc”

    “Day 4, Will send this mornings medicals, once my laptop has some power. 4 days now completed cycled 430 miles, on 0 calories, and will do 70 more tomorrow, before we head off to the PHC conference. All the team have been brilliant, And not one person has felt hungry yet. Amazing”

    These guys aren’t eating while they do the 500 mile cycling trip. Check the glucose column, That glucose is being generated by their bodies and not from any glucose being ingested. The human body does not require glucose to be consumed. The glucose in the glucose column is sufficient for their needs for the ride.

    Thought for the day….

    "Remarkably, as of 2022, most people have still never heard of insulin resistance. This is true even though it is the single most common chronic health condition in the U.S. and a major contributor to six of the top eight causes of death in 2021"

    More and more GPs and NHS practices are recognising the role of insulin resistance on metabolic health. Here is another, Dr Ruth Tapsell a GP in rural Devon. There are others so it isn’t simply a case of Dr David Unwin in Southport, The Colne Valley group of NHS surgeries in Essex, the New Forest group of surgeries in Hampshire. It’s becoming a case of too numerous to mention. These are all successful and acting GPs across the country. Many are recognising the success of Dr David Unwin and Dr Simon Tobin in Southport and mimicking their low carbohydrate solution, again with massive success regardless of geographical region.

    It’s all becoming more difficult to shout down, neg or ridicule. There will always be the odd few that still refuse to acknowledge these lines of progress with global health. I could say give this video a chance but it’s probably best to say, give yourself a chance and watch it.

    Some of us will find that at our surgeries the medical professionals have not yet got around to adopting lifestyle medicine in the form of prescribing lchf. Don’t be put off by this as the chances are that in an adjacent region the medical professionals are. Maybe then you might think, if they can do it in their region why can’t I/we?

    How do we define success in this case? Full drug free remission is the gold standard.

    Here we go. Insulin resistance is behind all in the diagram.

    How do we reduce insulin resistance or rather it’s effects? By radically reducing the consumption of carbohydrates.

    Today. Dr Aseem Malhotra and Dr David Unwin. Couple of wannabes according to one member of the forum.

    Not sure if it’s the Daily Snail or the Daily Impress or what but does it really matter as the times they are a changing.

    Ahead of the @ipmcongress opened by Prince Charles in London today, @lowcarbGP and @DrAseemMalhotra talk of the importance of lifestyle changes to reduce burden on the NHS and T2D, and over prescription of medication @ClarenceHouse


    Where have we heard that before?

    As if by magic, albeit in the Torygraph:


    I’m proof that GPs are too quick to prescribe pills
    Today’s Beyond Pills campaign launch aims to highlight the overprescription of ‘unnecessary’ drugs, something I’m all too familiar with.


    Five months after a serious riding accident, I was driving my car when the strangest feeling came over me. I felt paralysed, out of control – as if ordinary life was spinning away from my grasp. Unfortunately, this was not a new sensation.

    Ever since my horse bolted under a tree in autumn 2002, and I had smashed my arm to pieces while trying to shield my face, I had been on heavy-duty painkillers. First morphine, after my two operations – this apparently made me as high as a kite, and very jolly – then the opiate tramadol, which I was prescribed for about four months.

    When I stopped taking tramadol, withdrawal symptoms overwhelmed me for almost a year. I had panic attacks, felt intensely depressed, lost my sense of identity and self-confidence. At times, I felt suicidal.

    This experience is a big reason why I, a health writer for the past 35 years, am adding my support to the Beyond Pills Campaign, which launches today at the Integrative and Personalised Medicine Congress in London. We are campaigning to reduce the overprescription of pills when they might be unnecessary, and to show the value of non-drug alternatives.


    I’d like to make clear I am not against medication per se. Some pills are vital: one member of my family needs daily medication to control seizures, for instance. But according to the recent National Overprescribing Review, which was commissioned by the Department of Health and Social Care in 2018, 10 per cent of drugs prescribed in primary care are unnecessary, inappropriate or may even cause harm. That’s 110 million items a year.

    Other figures gave me pause for thought. Dispensing in primary care doubled from an average of 10 prescription items per head per year in 1996 to 20 in 2016. Then there is polypharmacy, or the doling out of several different types of drugs. At least 15 per cent of the population – 8.4 million people – take more than five separate medicines daily, often with one drug to treat the side effects of another.

    “As people get older, they tend to suffer from more than one disease so they are prescribed a set of drugs for each,” explains Dr Keith Ridge, former chief pharmaceutical officer for England, and the author of the National Overprescribing Review.

    Ridge believes, as do many health professionals, that the current biomedical model does not benefit patients or doctors. “A core finding from the nearly 100 patient interviews for the National Overprescribing Review is that they want to feel listened to. It’s vital that patients are confident to discuss with their doctor whether they need a medicine, the benefits and risks,” he says. “Or if there is an alternative such as social prescribing.”

    Should never have got to that weight to begin with in all honesty, looks obese in that pic so not that sensible.

    He isn’t that weight now. That was him before the change of diet.
    But….you must surely see how many of the population are either as big or almost as big. Me and Mrs Ash went for a curry (just had tandoori mixed grill) on Sunday and nearly all of the people in the restaurant were well over weight.

    At least he has turned things around. Many haven’t and can’t or won’t.

    Just saying, he isn't that smart for getting to that size in the first place, everyone knows that obesity affects your health, yup he wised up probably because he had a few scares though.i never met a fat person yet who didn't have some excuse or other for their size but normally it boils down to inactivity and over indulging, often in guys its alcohol also, and when they realise its always but..... But..... But.... Excuse time. I am not #fatshaming however, just my 10 pence worth on the issue :like:
