Well said!
Regarding slides, there are some changes coming to the Metabolic Duo project, so stay tuned. We do plan to provide printed/reading materials available for both professionals and enthusiasts. Hopefully one of these will suit your needs as well.

Thanks again. I have everything from Ebringer and will check Dr. Myhill’s stuff.

Thanks Jonathan, some really good papers there. Most AS patients see a profound improvement following the adoption of a low starch, low sugar diet. My personal experience is that the same factors, e.g. the appearance of quick-absorbing carbs, are responsible for the growth of these opportunistic pathogens as in metabolic diseases. So the same mitigating interventions tend to work, too.

It’s not difficult to try and see. I’ve been experimenting a lot for almost a decade, including with dairy, and beyond constipation from high casein intake, very little negative effects are apparent.

It puts a lot of the more technical stuff (which we struggle with partly because of on-going eye surgery but also your tendency to put so much on the screen !!) into context. We’re all human and, as you say, each of us has our particular issues so you can but educate us to ask questions, learn from studies and experiment. I’m also a great admirer of Dr Myhill and many others who have exposed the narrow, corrupt mindset of mainstream medicine when it comes to helping people heal themselves. And, some alternative gurus are not much better in their strident approach to things they’ve identified as problems for some people. None of them have all the answers but striving to eat real, unadulterated food, recognising your triggers and vulnerabilites (such as reactions to and intolerance of certain foods whether it be lectins, oxalates or whatever) but getting outside and having the confidence to seek the truth and figure things out for yourself is a good start. Keep at it and maybe one day you’ll let us have some of the key slides from previous, more technical sessions so we can download them and print off to study in black and white.

You might look at my comment below listen to the Dr Myhill video she gives some insight.

Have you come across Dr Sara Myhill? She has been at the sharp end, dealing with very ill patients and using the ketogenic diet, among other things, I think for 40 years, who knew.? she’s written many books and she loves the biochemistry.

I’ve linked a talk here that is very interesting. There are so many by her and she recently talked to Dr Tessa, Lawrie re long covid, vaccines ivermectin etc.

The reason I chose this video is because just for a moment around 30 minutes in she speaks about ankylosing spondylitis, which I think, without going back, is what Gabor suffers with? and she has this to say, this is from the transcript. It might whet your appetite.

“So many arthritides we now know
are driven by bacteria, in fact when i was at the middlesex hospital medical school in the 1970s we had a consultant there called Dr Alan Ebringer rheumatologist, he demonstrated that ankylosing spondylitis is driven by a microbe in the gut called klebsiella.

And if you are a particular tissue type, which is ‘hla b27’ positive, that to the immune system looks exactly like klebsiella, the bacterium make antibodies against klebsiella which cross react with ligaments in the spine and you get inflammation there.

And guess how Ebringer was treating his patients? With low carbohydrate ketogenic diets and curing their ankylosing spondylitis.”

I love dairy ie cheese but it does seem to be addictive, obesogenic and causes phlegm.

The doctors that deal with really ill people, like Paleo Medicina, Dr Myhill say absolutely no dairy.

KenBerry no Dairy.

Then the seeming healthy carnivores Chaffee etc no dairy.

Thoughts?
