soy apparently. i'm allergic to something in the fermented production of some brands. maybe all. and i get headaches from something in soy, but i don't know what.
For my body, since i'm insulin resistant and have PCO, i do better with 10 grams of carb per meal limit, omega three walnut or almond protien like almond butter, b/c what it does is regulate my Insulin levels. My insulin levels go up and up and up after carbs, proven by the glucose tolerance test done in atlanta in ?99? 98? 00? i froget and i didn't have LJ then. My androgens went up, ask Katty, i winifred@palm.net 'ted' her to inifinity! :) she said OMG no more glucose syrup orange soda for yoU!! :)
i say all this b/c there's a lot of good info about lowering carbs for a six month period to 10 per meal, no more than 40 per day and then having your LDL, HDL, and trigylcerides levels taken. It doesn't work for EVERYbody, but that's what works for mine, my mom, my dad, the toad, Kat, etc. (for people you know or i personally know.)
It's not hooey, and you don't have to eat meat to do it. Nuts have a bad rap, but they aren't bad if there's no carb upload feature for people with insulin resistance. Not sure exactly what it does to insulin requiring diabetics but you aren't insulin requiring right? (i'm not.)
It won't 'hurt' you to try it. it's just difficult to give up carbs.
There is stevia for sweetner and try to avoid all High Fructose Corn syrup. it's becoming more and more widespreadly tested to cause bad lipid levels to rise. i have only been saying that since 1997 after i stopped HFCS intakes.
my typical breakfast, all the whey.com whey protein blend. unflavored mixed in blender with coffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee or chocolate. the chocolate has sucralose/splenda.
lunch: cottage cheese, youghurt- plain, stoneyfield farm or dannon w/o crap added, no modified food starch, etc, or greek starter and make my own ala alton brown "thought" but not his ingredient list. I use 2 percent milk, four cups aka a quart, bring to boil slowly or as emeril says have to buy a new kitchen, maybe even house, maybe even neighborhood... *grin* then cool to 110 by putting in stainless bowl into pot of water and refreezable freezies. Then add two tablespoons youghurt, not pasturized!!!! then stir stir stir, then put in container then keep at 110 to 115 for 10 hours. in a 'maker' or with a heating pad in wine bottle cooler jug ala alton brown, (fanboy this works great!) and consume. THE carb count is WRONG WRONG WRONG on containers b/c of some rule or some idiotic calculation. i can have a cup of plain w/o no issues so it's less than ten carbs or just ten. (i forget which book i learned this in, but my blood sugar levels prove it's true).
Laughing cow cheese. omg, my fave!!!
maybe i have half a granny smith green apple. or some leslie's mom's tree grapefruit. or some grapefruit from my mom's delivery service. blueberries!!!
i might have a spelt pretzel or two. or a gluten free if i have any. like one or two! not ten.
walnuts to snack during hte day. Flax seed oil that's not rancid!!! this lowers bad lipids. your dekalb farmer's market had spectrum in a black bottle in their fridge on the back wall. i got it two years ago, kept in the fridge, still isn't rancid so that's what i'm using.
