Has anybody looked at this, its a big enough challenge having APOE4 status let alone having another AD risk! Our genes are not necessarily our destiny, but there are things we can do to support/counter variants we'd rather not have. In relation to IL6-174 Gene and AD risk, this article seems to be ...

On a recent trip to the Oregon coast, I decided to minimize this intake & hence reduce my fat intake. The observation was that my fasting glucose declined by 15-20 mg/dL... Interesting to see that much drop just by stopping the nuts. I stopped eating nuts due to oxalates but don't recall any no...

What does your current % fat intake look like these days?

And how much do you think you dropped the % fat to see an impact on your morning reading?

A newer case study suggesting an oxalate link to nephropathy. Important for those who might have kidney disease or a family history of it. A 59-year-old woman with a history of controlled hypertension presented with creatinine 1.8 mg/dL, increased from baseline 1.3 mg/dL. She denied recent illness, ...
