Dr Georgia Ede’s gets an excerpt article on CNBC.
Harvard-trained nutrition expert: If I could only prioritize one food in my diet, it’d be this Spoiler, it's MEAT. Between .6 to 1 gram per pound of ideal Body Weight!* https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/06/har...e-this-one.html *From my diving into protein research, and over 3 years experience, if you are a senior and want to reach and maintain your ideal body weight, 1 gram per pound is a good goal. |
I don’t post much here, but read the forum voraciously, as well as many books on the subject of health and low carbing.
I have to say that Dr Eades new book is the most comprehensive and clearcut explanation of how and why ketogenic diets work to our benefit that I have ever come across, and I am only 1/2 way done! Yes, it is quite scientific in places (where Dr. Eades even mentions that it is alright to skip over), but my understanding of how insulin resistance develops and affects so many systems in our bodies has increased 10-fold. Highly, highly recommend! |
Thanks for the review, Ci!

I think you might be confusing names. Dr. Georgia Ede is the author of the new book. Dr. Michael Eades and his wife, Dr. Mary Dan Eades, are the authors of quite a few low-carb books, like Protein Power. |

For those who are interested, Dr Georgia Ede recently joined Dr Zoe Harcombe on her podcast:

And right on time, a counter-study: Quote:
But the "protein" they used is Boost. More sugar than protein! |

Apparently I've missed something in that article (despite reading it multiple times) - I'm not seeing where they mention Boost as the source of the protein. Can you quote the part where Boost is mentioned? The ads keep jumping around and I suspect the ads are blocking parts of the text.
I don't doubt that's what they used though since they mentioned "protein enriched meals" and the reference to hospital settings where protein enriched meals are used to help prevent muscle loss = because Boost is what they use in hospitals and nursing homes for that purpose - they figure sick people will drink a milkshake more readily than they'll eat a plate of food, especially if their illness ruins their appetite, or the drugs they're on interferes with their sense of taste. In nursing homes, they know that the taste buds of the elderly tend to pick up sweet flavors much more readily than savory flavors, so they'll actually drink those things even if they won't eat anything. Not to mention that a lot of elderly nursing home residents can't chew very well, so even if they're eating, they only eat soft foods, which really limits the types of protein they can eat. |
Same study Dr Stu Phillips is shredding on Twitter: :lol: https://www.nature.com/articles/s42255-024-00984-2
They used Boost Plus, ingredients are water, glucose syrup, sugar, vegetable oil, milk and soy protein for 14g protein, 45 g carbs. |
Boost.
My mother had difficulty getting her failing husband to eat. The doctor suggested Boost. He lingered for 5 years subsisting on mostly Boost. It was along slow decline. ------ Dr Ede has been featured on may YT channels ,to promote her new book. She deserves the traffic. Our brains control our quality of life and physical function. She is a gem, and a voice Ive followed for years. ( She authored a terrific article on what supplements are beneficial for a vegan. She carefully described like 18 nutrients!! Meaning our brains need meats, and plenty.,) |

Several years before my MIL was admitted to a nursing home, she was drinking Boost daily. Not in place of all other food, but for solid food, she was mostly eating cookies, pastries, cake, and other junk food by that point. For a few years prior to that she was eating some little frozen diet meals, but not only was her sense of taste almost totally gone (except for the ability to taste sweet), she had also declared that she just didn't like vegetables any more, so she stopped eating those. At one point during those years she told DH and me that we should drink Boost too, because "it's really good for you!" :bash: I'm sure she was just going by what her DR told her to convince her to drink those since her appetite was so low and she couldn't taste anything that wasn't sweet. Of course I seriously doubt she'd ever given a thought in her life to nutrition as such. (southern cook - plenty of meats of all kinds, eggs, butter, and bacon. Not a lot of fruit, but plenty of veggies from the garden and of course biscuits and cornbread - a relatively balanced diet for the south during her lifetime) I have no idea what she was eating when she went into the nursing home - I suspect she was mostly just drinking boost by that point, although she might have also eaten whatever dessert they brought with her meals. |
