A patient takes an average of 250 to 350 gm. of rice (dry weight) daily; any kind of rice may be used provided no sodium, chloride, milk, etc. has been added during its processing. … All fruit juices and fruits are allowed, with the exception of nuts, [highlight=yellow]dates[/highlight], avocados and any dried or canned fruit or fruit derivatives to which substances other than white sugar have been added. [highlight=yellow]Not more than one banana a day should be taken[/highlight]. White sugar and dextrose may be used ad libitum; on an average a patient takes about 100 grams daily, but, if necessary, as much as 500 grams daily should be used. [highlight=yellow]Tomato[/highlight] and vegetable juices are not allowed.
That's just one of the studies Denise presents as evidence showing that a high carb low fat diet can be very effective for improving glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. Dates and bananas may work for some people, but I think generally people do better on lower fiber carb sources when first attempting to improve metabolism unless the fruits are very ripe and maybe blended or cooked to increase digestibility.
Hey Brian! Are you someone who has overcome insulin resistance? Or who is overcoming it now? I'm looking to chat to someone here who may shed some light on my situation :) no worries if not.
