My DH and I started eating LC two years ago in order to lose weight, which we have both done, so the great health benefits were a pleasant surprise. My BP, which was somewhat high, dropped back to normal the first week, I stopped retaining water in my ankles and feet, and I had and have lots more energy.

My DH's acid reflux, which had kept him sitting up many nights, disappeared the day we started eating LC! He also suffered from gout and was taking daily medication for that; last December his doctor took him off the medication to see what would happen, and he hasn't had even a whisper of a symptom in eight months.

I keep threatening to buy a Tshirt that says "It's the carbs, stupid!"
