Re: Do most stay in ketosis once they are healthy?

people get healthy on this program, do all or most people stay in ketosis?

Since an occasional fruit is okay for healthy people, I am wondering if people's

carbs go up higher and then they don't stay in ketosis? You've mentioned that

it's not good for the body to be switching back and forth which type of fuel

it's burning for energy. Just wondering what to expect a couple of years down

the road:)

*** Hi Marti - Here is an article Bee refers to concerning ketosis, while you

wait for her to check back in in the morning. Perhaps it will have an answer

for you:

+++You do go into ketosis, which is very healthy - see this article:

<http://www.biblelife.org/ketosis.htm>

Hope that helps

+++Hi Marti,

If carbs are increased too much above your calculated carb ratio and fats are

lowered too much your body would have to switch back to processing glucose as

its main energy source instead of fats. However, one piece of fruit isn't

enough to do that.

My ratio calculations are adopted from Dr. Jan Kwasniewski's Optimal Diet since

those ratios had been proven to be safe and successful for healing. Dr. K has

been curing heart disease, diabetes, obesity, asthma, and many other disorders

in Poland for over 40 years.

Dr. K. writes: http://homodiet.netfirms.com/diet/fat.htm

" Under no circumstances should we mix different kinds of fuel or the two

different sources of energy: fats and carbohydrates, more precisely we should

maintain a correct proportion between the two.

By eating animal fats we not only receive concentrated energy, but we also

receive all the fat-accompanying elements needed to obtain this energy, in the

necessary quantity and proportion. The human body metabolises (processes) animal

fats easily and such metabolism is energetically economical. The digestive

system is designed to slowly deliver the building blocks and energy containing

matter. "

I believe it is because the body has to change many processes in order to

process higher carbs/glucose that it is unable to do overnight. In order to

process glucose there is an increased need for oxygen, hormones, enzymes, and

many nutrients compared to what it needs when processing fats.

This puts a lot stress on the body that creates reactions and symptoms until it

has switched over, just like the reactions and symptoms created when the body

switched to using fats instead of glucose.

All the best, Bee

EXCELLENT article that I re-posted on my facebook page because my friends think

I am a NUT for eating/drinking fats. Let them think what they want. I'll be

going to their funerals before they go to mine!!!
