Questions Answered During This Episode:
- Can I drink wine if I’m following the ketogenic diet? What if it’s only red wine?
- I’m still waiting on my appointments and tests with you and considering what supplements I should buy. What are some good general “get started” supplements?
- What can I do to stop biting my nails? Is it really that bad to bite my nails?
- What’s the difference between coconut milk if it’s in a box or a can?
- I started taking collagen for my joints, but noticed I was gaining weight. Is that normal? Or is something else out of balance? What can I do here?
- A friend just told me that he has high blood pressure in spite of the fact that he works out regularly (both cardio and weight training), rides horses competitively on an amateur level, is not overweight, eats a healthy diet (organic veggies, chicken, no processed foods, almost no salt, seldom eats sweets). He does not have a sedentary job. He is on his feet all day. What are his options for lowering his blood pressure other than taking medication that his doctor is probably going to recommend?
- Is the ketogenic diet safe for diabetics when ketoacidosis is potentially fatal?
