Last night I watched this really great presentation. She sums a lot of the concepts surrounding Keto very well. I didn’t ever get “The Diabetus” but I was heading down that path and I’m abcolutely insulin resistant, probably worse.
Great TEDx talk by a doctor: “Reversing Type 2 Diabetes Starts with Ignoring the Guidelines”

About the Author: Chris
Chris Bair is a technology and computer geek. He became involved in the nutritionally complete "future foods" movement in January 2014, originally with a conventional recipe and later switching to a high fat, low carb "ketogenic" variant on October 2014. In January 2015 he created the recipe for Keto Chow and released it without restriction for anyone to use, at the same time he began mixing the recipe up for people that wanted a finished product and has seen steady growth in the business every month since.
At 25 I went through some medical troubles in 2006 involving high blood sugar (pre-diabetic semi-diagnosis, as no such diagnosis strictly exists), a COPD (really!) diagnosis, along with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), basically the same walking time-bomb most of us here in the USA are eating your run-of-the-mill high carb diet. I’ve been mildly to mostly compliant on a low-carb diet since. Zero blood sugar issues, TG down, HDL up, liver shows up beautiful on ultrasound, liver-panel blood-work had my doc recently saying “you’re going to live to be 120” (of course he can’t really know that, but it’s a good sign!). So to all the low-carb doubters, if you’re genes aren’t carb friendly, perhaps consider a low-carb approach. Thank you Chris for maintaining an internet log of what you do, I appreciate your site, and the Keto-Chow n=1 you are doing, I’m tempted to try your recipe, I personally do well on solid food, but I think a shake approach could be the difference between my plateau of 20% BF to getting it down to 12% (abs here we come!).
