Barb...you just sit tight until the pros get here...for now, I'm here to tell you that there is a ton of scientific evidence that low carbing is not only safe (on the kidneys too) but even a better way of eating for your type of metabolism and mine.

I was scared when I first looked into this...and was terribly mean to a friend of mine who went on atkins and lost 40 lbs. I was telling her about how much fat is dangerous, where is your fruit, etc. I didn't know what I was talking about until I read the book, spoke to some professionals and tried it myself.

My hypoglycemis is all but GONE! My fainting feelings each day, migraines, shakes, appetitite cravings...you name it, all GONE.

You'll hear from others about how your kidneys are going to be fine, but from me...the quicker you get on and stay on, the better and healthier you'll be.
