You are welcome.

I am frankly amazed at how many illnesses are caused by mitochondrial dysfunction. It refocuses the Metabolic Syndrome trifecta of heart disease, stroke and diabetes into only the beginning of how this affects us.

Dr. Wahls' book urges people through three diet stages until they reach ketosis: however that shakes down for them. Considering my carb sensitivity, my lack of a meter, and the serious nature of my recent downturn, I think shooting for an average of ten carbs a day is the simplest way for me to go.

I've read many many accounts here of how people still battle hunger and cravings. I'm convinced it's because they think they can "cheat," and that their daily carb allotment is just not low enough.

Because this is delicious and easy. I'm still a bit amazed
