Jimmy Moore On CNBC-TV's dLife Diabetes Life Program On January 31, 2010

Why not offer both low-fat and low-carb as an option for people? Right now all the dietary recommendations call for a high-carb, low-fat diet. Wouldn't it be better if we let people decide which plan is right for them?

What's up with your last question, 'Why not both?'

you're body can turn protein into glucose carbs are not necessary

@livinlowcarbman

It's true that there is little need for carbs except for brain and neurons that can not burn fat unless you feed them glucose . You can eat some complex carbohydrates or do what I use, L-Glutamine is the supplement that feeds the brain happy and cuts all cravings for sugars, grains and even alcohol

The body NEEDS fat and protein, but there is absolutely ZERO need for carbohydrate in your diet. Yes, you want some from non-starchy veggies, but that's about it. I've had more energy and stronger than ever before because of healthy low-carb living!

you need proteins to rebuild muscle and to start burning fat. What happens when you get sick and have no energy and muscles , you will get fat again if you don't build muscles
Carbs are necessary for energy and brain functions, Lemon juice is great for losing weight and alkalizing body in my experience. Although it's acidic , its very alkalizing in the body and just turns the accumulated fat into something that body can dispose of .

My whole wheat bread has no sugar but has fiber and proteins. Fats gets accumulated when your body doesn't know what to do with strange substances so it stores them.This is always acidic environment and mostly processed sugar that is turned into fat by the insulin.

Thanks so much! That was way cool, too. Benno is AMAZING!

Wow, great video man. They got you on TV! You look great as usual. Long live low carb lifestyles!

YOU GO! I'm so proud of you and kudos to low-carb living!

Hello Jimmy, I am diabetic and I know that Low Carb works for me. I stopped all prescription drugs 1/1/2008 and control my diabetes with an Atkins diet and exercise. I was on 5 different drugs for all the usual things; Cholesterol, blood pressure and blood glucose. I am now much healthier and have much better control of my diabetes and health without the drugs.

Thanks gledalac1979. But whole wheat bread is only slightly better than white bread. Read GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN to find out why. I agree some low-sugar fruits and non-starchy veggies are good for your body, but most people go overboard on potatoes and bananas instead. I don't buy into this whole acidic/alkaline argument. It's more about controlling carbs to keep blood sugar levels down to prevent excessive insulin from storing body fat & leading to disease. Lots of protein isn't the answer.

@livinlowcarbman

you can eat some carbs like whole wheat bread but you need to eat more vegetables and fruits to alkalize your body. The weight is there because your body can't get rid of the acidic food , mainly concentrated sugar but all the other acidic food as well. You can get rid of the carbs by exercise but to get rid of the acidic food you have to eat a whole lot of alkaline foods , namely whole fruits and vegetables
People also need to eat a lot of proteins and good unsaturated fat

nice jimmy!
