I tell ya the more i read to try and understand the less i seem to understand. I mean i get the global concepts but i just can seem to grasp details. I have read gary taub, jimmy moore, jason fung, etc and they all make sense on the high levels but when i try and drill down into the details to really understand say nmr results, insulin resistance, calcium score etc I just cloud over.
It is bad enough i argue to get say an nmr done and then have a hard time discussing results because i just can seem to digest the details and the doctors do not seem to be able to read either.
They only look for that magical H on your lab results and then obsess with " well these are high and we have meds for ya"
Now I am excited for ivor and dr jeff book to come but afraid i wont be able to digest this either… UGH
There was a reason I hated school… LOL
Its like i want to try and take charge of my health and be “undoctored” but I just cant seem to get it and all help costs more money and more money…really wish for all the insurance money we pay and etc that even if they dont agree with us we could get an advocate to “work” with us…
I guess my only recourse is to just stop going to docs and wait for a “break” since they only know how to repair us and not prevent us from needing repairs. Or I guess i just try and save up some cash and start to pay out of pocket but then again who when i get to the point of being able to pay…
Have blood work being done again for annual physical in couple weeks and even thougfh I have argued several times and finally got nmr done a year ago he again didnt list it this time, and he also knows when e sees me that I am not going on a statin and want to fix with nutrition while possible but since he or any other doc i have spoken to dont understand nutrition or keto they jus dismiss and say well you cant outrun genetics or those solutions arent able to be maintained longterm, again bacause you cant make any money off them ???
RANT over …
