Comments by Brian Shilhavy In this video from Specialty Health, you can listen to a panel discussion with five medical doctors, Gary Taubes, and Robb Wolf regarding the problem of insulin resistance and the damaging
effects of a high carbohydrate diet on Alzheimer's Disease, and how coconut oil can be effective in treating Alzheimer's Disease.

There are far bigger fish to fry, for example, when we compare the
effects of eating too much salt, to the consumption
of a
high carbohydrate diet, which increases the risk
of diabetes by 44 % and the risk
of CVD by 25 % (5).
This paradox could be explained if it is the
high - protein content rather than the lower
carbohydrate content
of low -
carbohydrate diets that offsets the deleterious
effect of high fat intakes and results in weight loss.
This salutary
effect of protein may help to explain the paradoxical weight loss observed in subjects placed on low -
carbohydrate diets, because an increase in protein intake accompanies the
high fat content
of such
diets (5 — 7).
CB1 antagonists have been shown to decrease nicotine self - administration in rodent models
of nicotine dependence.24 While CB1 agonists increase feeding in rats and humans, CB1 antagonists have been shown to have the opposite
effect, significantly suppressing rats» food intake regardless
of type
of diet (standard lab chow,
high fat or
high carbohydrate).
Westernized

high in refined
carbohydrates exposes us to
high levels
of insulin because we have removed the protective
effect of the fibre.
Type 2 diabetes refers to a condition where the cells
of the body become resistant to the
effects of insulin, which is typically the result
of obesity and / or the consumption
of excessive amounts
of sugar and
high carbohydrate foods associated with the standard American
diet.
The assayed Ma - Pi 2
diet [20] is lower in energy than the traditional one recommended for diabetic patients, but safe, with adequate satiating
effect due to the
high fiber content, adequate in protein (12 %
of the total energy), with an acceptable amino acid score, low in fat (15 %
of the total energy), and
high in complex
carbohydrates (73 %).
A classical ketogenic
diet — with a staggering 70 - 90 percent
of total calories coming from fat — might not be necessary.51 Classical ketogenic
diets restrict protein as well as
carbohydrate, since 48 - 58 percent
of the amino acids in dietary proteins can be glucogenic, thereby undermining the purpose
of a
diet intended to generate a
high amount
of ketones and limit glucose as much as possible.46 As therapy for AD, however, simply lowering
carbohydrate intake to a point where some ketones are generated and hyperinsulinemia is corrected could have positive
effects just by easing the metabolic burden on the brain.

We recently published an article documenting the grim long - term
effects of low -
carbohydrate diets, in which we explain the evidence - based research showing that low -
carbohydrate diets high in fat and protein including meat, dairy products, eggs, fish, and oil actually worsen diabetes health, increase cancer risk, increase cholesterol, increase atherosclerosis, harden blood vessels, and increase all - cause mortality.

There is no evidence that a
diet, such as the Perfect Health
Diet, that is
high in saturated and monounsaturated fat, low in PUFA, and provides sufficient, moderate levels
of protein and
carbohydrate, has any detrimental
effect on the thyroid.

As the author explains on his website, choosing the right carbs and eating them at the right times, allows us to achieve and maintain
high levels

Therefore, it is important to appreciate that the many ultra-low
carbohydrate diets that are now in vogue for so many in the nutritional community, while they may be beneficial for those individuals who have, for years, ingested a
diet high in poor quality
carbohydrates, can have an adverse
effect on the gut when they are employed in excess for a significant period
of time.
~
Effect of high - amylose starch and oat bran on metabolic variables and bowel function in subjects with hypertriglyceridemia (human study — full text) «We compared the
effects of a
diet in which 25 %
of the
carbohydrate was replaced by
high - amylose starch with those
of a similar

For a large proportion
of the population, however, the
effect of higher -
carbohydrate diets, particularly those enriched in refined
carbohydrates, coupled with the rising incidence
of overweight and obesity, creates a metabolic state that can favor a worsening
of the atherogenic dyslipidemia that is characterized by elevated triglycerides, reduced HDL cholesterol, and increased concentrations
of small, dense LDL particles (6, 7).
Defining what represents a macronutritionally balanced
diet remains an open question and a
high priority in nutrition research.1, 2 Quiz Ref ID In short - term randomized clinical trials, substitution
of protein for
carbohydrate has been shown to favor weight management, decrease blood pressure, and improve cardiometabolic biomarkers, including blood lipid and lipoprotein profiles and glycemic regulation.3 - 5 These beneficial
effects are partly dependent on weight loss and possibly owing to the enhanced postprandial satiety and energy expenditure when exchanging protein for
carbohydrate.6 Therefore,
high - protein and low -
carbohydrate diets have been promoted for weight loss and health improvement.

While some cats are more sensitive to the detrimental

high carbohydrate diet or one that is water - depleted (dry kibble).
Research (Bennet N., Greco DS, Peterson ME - Compare the
