Alcohol on a LCHF Diet

[Marie_N]

Thank you so much! I am a newbie in this WOL and I really appreciate how thorough your explanations are.

I’m so glad I found this video! I’m going on a cruise in July and was wondering what am I gonna do about drinking? It’s easy to stick with the LCHF food wise on a cruise as there are so many food options. Thank you.

I seem to remember learning that alcohol is one of four items that can go straight through the stomach wall (water is another of the four). The implication is that alcohol can hit the liver and other nearby organs pretty hard. I also THOUGHT I learned that the liver will make a priority of metabolizing or processing alcohol over anything else - like food. This implies that the blood sugar would tend to rise if say, you ate a lot of sugar or concentrated carbs along with the alcohol. Does anyone else remember it this way?

What effect does keto have on candida?

A word of warning to binge watchers - The sound level is way different in these videos. The last one was quieter, so I turned my speaker up. At that level, this one was quite a shock.

I'm wondering about beans. I'm a type 2 diabetic, and since I've started LCHF back on July 5, my blood sugars have really dropped along with my triglycerides and others. I hear sometimes that you can have beans and peas, and some others say no. I've had some and they didn't seem to significantly affect my blood sugars. What do you think?

If I have a several glasses of, say shots of tequilla, one day a week. How long will it take to recover and heal the body of the free radicals and fat in the liver, on a LCHF diet?

I have been binge watching your videos. I think your videos are so informational and helpful. I have been following a HFLC way of eating for almost 2 years now. I don't have a weight problem. My question is my ketones when I do my blood ketone level is always .6 7 or 8. Sometimes even .2 .3. Very rarely am I over .9. Is this normal?

In Australia (east coast) there is a beer called "Big head" by Burleigh Breweries, it claims to be zero carb.
I'm not a big beer drinker, but it's not bad, a little watery perhaps but definitely drinkable, for me at least.

Good content but the audio is painful to listen to. Too much echo

I have two shots of expensive Scotch Whiskey a day.

I appreciate your lectures. However, i'm perplexed by your stance on Alcohol (a toxin) and aspartame ( a neuro-toxin) and other artificial sweeteners. Alcohol studies from the UK, where the beer and wine lobby is less consequential, suggest that a single dose of alcohol in an appreciable part of the population sets the stage for addiction.

Remember, the alcohol manufactures don't want you to stop although your on a low carb diet so you can get low carb beer. Some have up to 40% carb reduction. There's always a reason to keep drinking. Thing is, with beer it tends to be a rather large consumption compared to hard hard liquor for instance.

The main issue I have with these videos is that it's non drinkers addressing many drinkers. I don't know anyone that has just one drink. You drink alcohol to get a buzz. As long as you fast and eat as little to stay in a deficit for that day you can drink all the light beer, dry wine, or liquor you want. And there is no evidence that doing this every few weeks causes any real damage to your body.

all her vids are loud and very echoing

[Carnikeeto]

it's the ratchet sounding voice....too hard to listen to
