Since nearly 80% of people who are either overweight or obese have metabolic dysfunction stemming from hyper Insulinemia, prediabetes and will develop preventable chronic diseases, such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, and cancer, the best and ONLY way to stop the development of these chronic diseases is to early detect the metabolic dysfunctions and reverse them to provide much better care at much lower costs. People can live longer and healthier due to our work on developing Multifunction Cardiography Technology to deliver the much-needed early detection and monitoring to enable lifestyle optimization and chronic disease prevention/reversal.

I did not noticed, if you mentioned it, what happened to your own weight. Where is it now? When did it drop? What was done?

I have gradually lost 63 pounds by eating real, whole food. I was prediabetic 20 years ago and I never developed diabetes. 4 of my patients lost over one hundred pounds. The champ lost 150 and she was on a scooter chair. She could not exercise. She just started eating real food and cut our sugar.

A strict ketogenic diet is still a high fat diet and humans can gain weight by eating fat. If you eat real, whole food consistently, you should lose a pound or two a month. Intermittent fasting switches on AMPK which mobilizes fat stores for use. Permanent weight loss requires a permanent change in what you eat. Some medications favor weight gain and slow metabolism . Metoprolol is a good example.

Too much of ANYTHIN is probably a bad thing. For example, too much protein intake willt reduce our cellular and systems longevity capabilities.
