I have received helpful replies at a constant basis, some not
visible to yourself.. But you are correct, i do tend to post
too much/saltatorily.. I will post less - it is just stuff i
am interested in i'm sure others aren't interested but i never
noticed.. also this'll free up time for emails i have to reply
to.. i'll do what some of the ppl on here do which is just
watch for other posts and reply on the odd time..

are their ways of knowing firsthand that one should avoid
these healthy foods, I eat the likes every day (especially
apples) I'd hate to find out there is some bad reaction taking
place. Wuzzy by the way have you read the glucose revolution,
if so what did you think, is there a lot more important info
the book does not discuss. I just picked it up yesterday and
after the first three chapters their seems to be a lot of good
things to say about carbohydrates, I was led under the
impression of people such as Dr. Mercola that carbs are bad,
and to be avoided, even those who are not diabetic or insulin
res., for basic health promoting reasons. comments please

yep i've read it, its good kind of misleading at times, for
instance they cite uncle ben's rice as being low gi, when if
you look at the original study (it is the international one
with australia, toronto etc. values - it is lying around
somewhere on my computer) there are two values for uncle bens,
the low one reported and the high one.. the high one seems
more likely given how rice is generally in this range..

glycemic index is complex, i'm still running queries, and i
constantly revise my ideas on it.. i've switched to logistic
regression: Hi index (>60) vs. low index (<60) as recommended
by others on this board.. Also for serum insulin levels i have
finally found use for it, you have to use 2hr 2nd withdrawn
insulin as well as discrimiinant analysis/logistic regression
on high insulin vs. low insulin to find a correlation.. linear
models did not work because the questionnaire is not linear..

if anyone is interested, i ran discriminant analysis on 2,000
people for hair loss and height was negatively correlated
whereas tricept skinfold was positively correlated with hair
loss, i took the residuals from age to factor out age..

basically Degree of Androgenic Hair Loss= -Height + Tricept
skinfold where height and tricept are standardized and predict
equal amounts of hair loss.

so there is no doubt in my mind that this is so..

the study i did is much more complex if anyone watns to see my
results on things like food etc. it has graphs and stuff and
shows definitievely i think a relation.. i just ran it for
fun, i'm only 23 years old and i found only when you are about
70 do you get hair loss hehe.. why not run such a query,
though, it is fun..

woops i forgot to report that the discriminant analysis was
abl.e to predict 59.35% of cases.. p value on chi square test
(68.1) was like zero..

i'd be interested to see the results, the diet especially.
