I really enjoyed this pod, paying special attention to the discussion on becoming re-addicted. I'm struggling with that now and while I've always considered myself a moderator, I'm discovering that I may need to be an abstainer. Thanks to all three of you for the info.

I have experienced this shame my whole life and still struggle with going to the doctor. My doctor is supportive and was patient in introducing me to low carb and I still don't want to go in because my weight loss has stalled despite eating low carb. Thank you for reminding me I am not alone and it isn't my fault!

A real good episode, guys! This episode makes me proud to be a swede! Yes, many people have died here too, but our economy, our hospitals and our lives has been fairly normal, even though we are "only" using social distancing. I think that the swedish state epidemiologist has done a good job! Keep up the good work, guys, and take care! /Agneta in Sweden

What an awesome podcast. It fires me up to try and spread the word as much as I can. I was diagnosed as diabetic last summer, and now it is reversed. I am not a medical professional, but I want to help with the message. I will be sharing this with a neurologist appointment in July, the person who diagnosed my diabetic state. My hope is that I can just get his attention enough to even check out Dr. Noakes, Fung, Lenzkes and Kalajian. Hopefully medicine will look at Diabetes the way they have this world pandemic virus and start taking it seriously.
