Thyroid & diet.

Is there anyone out there who knows about hypothyroidism and diet? I have been hypothyroid for many years now but in spite of my low-carb diet (of ten years) I have been unable to regain my pre-hypothyroid weight. I am healthy but REALLY fed up trying to lose this extra weight! (Around 11stone.)

Gary taubes--why we get fat

grannydrums — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 08:04:24 +0000

I read just about every book I can lay my hands on looking for an explanation of why carbohydrates make me fat. Most books tell me that, all about insulin etc which makes sense, but it still left a niggling question. Why when i was younger and certainly no more active, did i eat lots of carbohydrates and not put on weight.

Nutrition Course

My daughter thinks that she might study nutrition. She has listened to me over the last ten years, going on about low carb and (most of the time!) sticks to it herself. The trouble is, all courses that we have looked at trot out the same high carb nonsense. Does anyone know of any appropriate and accredited courses? If not, maybe someone would like to devise one?

What is Grass Fed Beef or Pasture Fed Beef?

TimothymB — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 11:18:36 +0000

Put simply, American grass fed beef is exactly that--beef animals that are fed grass or pasture raised. Most cattle in the United States are not grass fed beef, but are instead fed grain.

Hi there, I am trying to find my way in a very confusing world and I have landed here. I'm changing my lifestyle and want to eat healthily but am getting so many mixed messages that I feel like I'm getting nowhere.
