Hey thanks for writing back. I think we may have more in common that we thought. I visited for weeks at a time, maybe five to six times, over six years the instincto castle in France. So obviously I am very well versed in instinctive forms of eating. I'll always remember watching a mother putting food in front of her baby's face and the baby pushing it away over and over till I wanted to literally go up to the mom and say 'your baby just isn't hungry'. Well of course, as the story has it, just at that moment the baby found with the next offering, just what it wanted and ravished it down. And then the whole process started over, with me once again almost going to the mom and saying that she is full and isn't hungry. And then the baby found just what she wanted and wolfed it down. This happened maybe my first time there. It was a very big lesson for me. Also I 'enjoyed' hearing and witnessing how the children rarely if ever got sick/runny noses etc....
Years go by, and here I am. Now I believe I understand first hand the science, if you will, behind insulin resistance and it's ramifications. What got me to try low to zero carb was a statement made by a zero carb eater who said that fruit eaters would rather get sick than give up their fruit. That's all it took for me to look at my attachments, my beliefs, and ideas. So I made an experiment. I gave up carbs, knowing that it wasn't going to kill me. My mind had to go through some pretty thick dogma to get to the other side. And my body had to go through some equally rough times to Keto adapt and to learn to use fat as fuel source. All I can say is that from that experiment I have now truthfully witnessed both sides of at least one equation. If you might be interested in reading some very well written words about the effects of insulin from eating carbs, may I suggest the writings of Dr. Ron Rosedale. I think he is most sincere in his efforts. We all have our own paths.
