Dr. Natasha Turner, my new hero!!!


Dr. Natasha Turner is has a book called the Carb Sensitivity Program that I feel finally puts into print what I have been researching and experimenting with for years....always feeling like I could not eat certain carbohydrates, even though they were "healthy foods".
The bottom line is that everyone is INDIVIDUAL and not all carbs are tolerated by all people and our hormones...especially insulin, play a huge role in this...
Our modern day diet has messed up a lot of our hormones and made us insulin resistant...the low fat, high carb diets that were recommended in the past have caused more harm than good...
The "low carb" diets that did help people lose weight but were not healthy and ultimately led to rebound weight gain were also giving people a bad example of what carb restricting can do for your body and insulin balance.
It is all about INDIVIDUALITY and finding out what works for you....not eliminating all carbs completely but also realizing that not all carbs are good for everyone...even if they are healthy, nutritious foods.
Think of it as an allergy...if you were allergic to nuts or fish, you would not consume them even if they were full of nutrients and good fats! Your body may not tolerate certain carbs and Dr. Turner's book gives you step by step instructions as to how you can determine what foods you can tolerate.
Dr. Natasha Turner's book is my new "bible" and I recommend it to everyone...
Best of all it is available at Costco! Her website will give you a good idea what her book is about...
