OMG. I'd buy a washlet just because the website is so cool! So happy and comforting!
NSFW. NSFW. (the vertical and horizontal ass smiles are cute tho)
I lived in Seoul, SKorea a few years ago - and EVERY middle class (and up) family had one of these.
They ARE comforting. They ARE happy!
Euphemism overload!
I have so many feelings, all at once. I am grossed out, but intrigued. I am irritated by those smiling asses, but oddly happier after looking at the site. The fully clothed woman on the toilet seat reminds me of the blue liquid we're supposed to deposit on our feminine hygiene products, but she's so cute and helpful, and she really did answer my questions, eventually.
And most of all, I have no idea if I want one, or if I would ridicule a friend until the end of time if he or she bought one. I love the ass dryer. That's definitely the best part.
If I got one of these my husband would NEVER leave the can. He spends enough time in there as it is.
When i was in Japan last summer this was all i saw. Even at the trashiest convient store, which isn't saying it was very trashy at all, they had a ToTo robotic toilet capable of cleaning your happy ass with warm water. Heated seats too. All those schoolyard stories you heard about the Japanese having everything years before we do, they're true. Welcome to shitting 2.0
Fun game - wait until the initial intro has stopped playing on the home page of the site, and then move your cursor over the happy faces for their surprised reaction.
i remember seeing these at the asian market like 6 or 7 years ago, and wanted it then. how much are they? this solves my bidet-wanting problem.
The dad of a friend of mine in Kansas City was an early investor in what was then going to be called "The American Bidet," which sounds like the same product, and they had one on their can, in 1992. The water and the warm air, alternating on either end of a pedal, were really fun, but I got the impression that it was for people who are really icked out at the idea of wiping their own butts. And I'm not sure the stream of warm water makes a completely satisfactory substitute for TP.
But the best part was how it worked. I was a little scared so I stepped on the foot pedal without sitting on the seat. A creepy little tube with a angled nozzle moved from under the back of the seat to the middle of the pot (like a sneaky cobra in an action movie), then squirted water six feet into the air and onto the wall opposite. Oops.
These have commonplace in Japan at least since I first visited 12 years ago. I have only kind words for the product, but am I the only person who finds the new website decidedly creepy?
Very cool. Looks like they cost $400-600.
As I recently read, "if you had dung on your face, would you wipe it off with paper or with soap and water?"
@8 - of the million things I love about every woman, I love differently-shaped eyes.
"Clean is confident. Clean is happy." Oh god... Clean is wasting water.
Clean is wasting water.

In one is Kim Kardashian and in the other is Snooki.
They both desperately want you and you have to pick one room.
I don't know who are both of these people.
I'd go with Kim Kardashian, then I might have a chance to sue Kanye West for beating me up.
Why would anyone choose Snooki
Can I pick the room with Karen Gillan?

Christopher Rau
Asper Clouds
US: 9 Nov 2010
UK: 1 Nov 2010
Jazz flourishes and a dose of unconventional samples spice up Asper Clouds. Germany's Christopher Rau uses sirens, cinema dialogue and more to fill out the deep house sounds of his debut full-length. Aside from a couple of dazzling efforts, though, the album is repetitive, with little in the way of tangible development.
Slotted midway through Asper Clouds, "The Cool World" is one of the stronger pieces in the set. At first it's mildly propulsive, building for a bit before Rau swaps the kicks and hi hats out for a crusty film-sourced pep talk. Far-off saxophone winds slowly around looped organ chords, and the track's progression, as well as its chilling sense of removal, attest to Rau's deft arrangement of these adjacent samples (the background noise, the curious placement of the film dialogue—the producer's history in hip hop production doesn't hurt). The center of "The Cool World", its micro-sized carousel music samples, is hardly enough to anchor it, so Rau's nuances again carry the load. "Capri", too, boasts only a repetitive couple of musical ideas, but the events that materialize around them are few and far between.
When you least expect it, Asper Clouds spreads out in a manner that embodies its serene cover art, an understated watercolor work from Hamburg-based artist Stefan Marx. Just as Rau's humdrum "Do Little" does, well, little, the producer's sunny synth swells brighten "The Needs" immensely, never marring an appeal that's as subtle and stirring as anything on John Roberts' Glass Eights. Countering the less exciting bumps along the way, Rau's restrained extras add finesse but the tracks largely fall short of leaving a memorable impression.

Monday, January 18 sees the peak of the January blues as the saddest day of the year dawns in Reading, Wokingham and Bracknell.
Falling traditionally on the third Monday of January each year, people up and down the UK will typically experience the 'perfect storm of depression' which occurs around the middle of the month.
Find out a bit more about where Blue Monday comes from.
In order to shed some grey thought clouds on this depressing day, we've put together a list of ways to provide some relief and cheer yourself up!
1) Tuck into your favourite meal - whether it's some home cooked grub or going to a restaurant you love, a good hearty meal is the one.
2) Why not buy yourself a little something? We say a little something, but you might finally decide that you deserve that watch or those shoes, or it could be something as simple as a cheeky box of chocolates.
3) Be spontaneous - go and see a movie, get a group of friends together for drinks, go for a stroll.
5) Watch some comedy. There's nothing quite like belly laughing. Crying with laughter is much better than hysterical sobbing.
6) Immerse yourself in an awesome book. Return to a classic or explore something new.
7) Spend some time with your loves ones. Make time to eat as a family, even sit and watch the TV together or play a game. Whatever you wouldn't normally do together.
8) Dance! Whether you decide to hit the town or throw some shapes in the kitchen, let your inner Beyoncé take over for a little while.
9) Look at positive quotes. There are some truly inspirational greats both past and present that have shared their pearls of wisdom. Write one down and keep it on a post to remind yourself to stay positive.
10) Get creative - painting, drawing and cooking can all be rather therapeutic, and you could get the little ones involved too.
11) Have a relaxing bath. Candles, check - bubbles, check - glass of wine, check.

text: Politics 6 July 2012 University sues student for graduating "too fast" FOM wants €3,000 from Marcel Pohl Print HTML The Local: A private German economics and business university is suing one of its students for lost income after he finished his Bachelors and Masters degrees in about a quarter of the normal time. Marcel Pohl completed 60 examinations in 20 months, gaining a grade of 2.3, and was officially ex-matriculated in August 2011. Such a course usually takes 11 semesters, but he only needed three. Now the Essen-based School of Economics and Management (FOM) want the 22-year-old to pay his fees up the end of 2011 - an extra €3,000.

I'm implementing ValidateAntiForgeryToken for my MVC application which is deployed in Azure.
1) I added @Html.AntiForgeryToken() in Main page.
2) I'm doing send data for Post action by using Jquery $.Post Here is the code
`var token = $('[name=__RequestVerificationToken]').val();
var url = '/XX/YYYY/';
$.post(url, { __RequestVerificationToken: token,reportname: reportName},
function (data) { window.navigate(data.url) }
I'm passing token to server and saw in fiddler , tht Cookie and Hidden variable are passed to server.
3) I attributed the action with [HttpPost] & [ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
This work perfectly in my DEV environment of azure, but when we move into different envrionment it fails, It throws exception "A required anti-forgery token was not supplied or was invalid "
I observed the value of hidden variable and value in cookie variable are different. Even the same in my dev environment, but it works in dev environment but not in test. Please suggest how to trouble shoot this exception.
Configuration is same for DEV and TEST azure sites.

text: Posted January 19, 2009 Fox just essentially allowed Davidson to pick the new QB coach. That doesn't sound like a guy who's being "limited". Not sure if I agree that Fox "allowed" Davidson to pick the new QB coach. I'm sure Fox took into consideration Davidson's recommendation of Scherer, but I'm sure more went into the decision making process than Davidson's input.

AbstractWe propose to build in Phase II a compact, rugged laser photoacoustic spectrometric (L-PAS) prototype sensor system (at technology readiness level TRL-6) for continuous, real-time broadband analysis of multiple chemicals. It will incorporate a tunable infrared quantum cascade laser (QCL), photoacoustic cell and air sampler system in a sealed decontamination-capable module and an efficient algorithm for rapid high sensitivity, multi-component CW agent measurements in under a minute. In Phase I we have utilized a laboratory L-PAS instrument to successfully demonstrate feasibility through CWA simulant measurements in clean dry air and with multiple interferents. Several developments crucial for building compact field-usable sensor were completed, including: room temperature continuous-wave QCL in 9.5-10.5µm range with >100mW output; single mode operation; mode-hop-free multi-step laser tuning over ~700nm wavelength range in <10sec with rapid (<30ms) settling between wavelengths; autonomous laser tuning software; and optimizing algorithms for retrieval of multi-component concentrations. Laboratory tests of L-PAS sensor performed with simulants DIMP and DMMP were analyzed to determine sensor performance: (DMMP detection limit <2ppb) and ROC curves. The prototype sensor will be field tested with simulants and agents in DoD test sites to qualify (TRL-6) and characterize the sensor after which it will be delivered to the sponsor.

Bernstein: Chichester Psalms
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra & Marin Alsop
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download music.
|7 Songs
Customer Reviews
In regard to Movement Two of the Chichester Psalms:
I felt that, although overall an excellent recording, the boy solo was a tiny bit forced and pushed, taking the music out of context. The text translates to a famous Psalm, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, etc...," however, I felt more like he was saying "The Lord got me lost in the valley and now I'm annoyed." The tenors have great control of the high notes in the men's section but the intonation of the Bass entrance was a tiny bit sharp, more than likely from the excitement of line. The women's sections were beautiful, except for the lack of volume. It would have helped if the choir had taken every dynamic up a level just to be heard and understood over the orchestra. Clarity of text was also occasionally an issue. I have sung this piece and, understanding its treacherous moments (because I have DEFINITELY encountered them!), found this to be a decent handling of Bernstein's repertoire. I would recommend as a learning tool about dynamics, balance, and character of music for any music major.
Perfect. Nice rendition of Bernstein's work.
We sang this whole thing last night. It was a blast. I really liked it. :D
Formed: 1893 in Bournemouth, Dorset, England
Genre: Classical
Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s

Victoria Jackon's Hot New Single: "There's A Communist Living in the White House!!"
Miami native and Saturday Night Live alum Victoria Jackson has unsurprisingly gone full tea bagger on us. The recipient of one of our Dirty Dozen "awards" has already endorsed Rush Limbaugh for president and compared President Obama to Hitler. Now she's joined forces with the Pasadena Tea Party for her latest ukulele jam, "There's a Communist Living in the White House!!"
"My husband really misses me. My parents think I've gone crazy. Only Glenn Beck really understands me, and of course Sean Hannity and Huckabee. But, you know, besides those three, and those sweet people who drink the tea, there's no one else who can see the Communist living in the the White House," she squeaks.
Oh, jeez. Then she spouts off a litany of pretty weak reasons why she believes Obama is a commie: Jeremiah Write, his father, Saul Alinksy, Van Jones, "Spread the Wealth," and all of that.
"Maybe I've lost my mind or been drugged by some narcotic. Maybe I'm in a movie called 1984 or I'm just idiotic," she sings.

Doggone It, People Like Me!
By Mrs. Julien | Comment Diversions | June 22, 2013 | Comments ()
What a delightful week of vitriol and recrimination we've had here on Pajiba! There was much throat jumping down and bringing of guns to knife fights. Scathing and bitchy, indeed. Let's be nice. Not too nice, I wouldn't want anyone to go into shock. Instead of all those comments that someone's opinions are virulent, their humanity suspect, or, I'm just saying, perhaps, overreacting from a safe, anonymous space on the internet, let us share a time when someone has complimented you.
I don't know if it's a Canadian thing or a WASP thing, but this one is actually going to be very difficult for me. If I did it in front of most anyone I know, family members in particular, I would be greeted with embarrassed silence. It's just so outré ...
Mr. Julien and I were out one day in a nearby town and we had split up to each go do things we wanted. When we met back up. Mr. Julien told me he had been was sitting eating a sub and he saw a beautiful woman walking down the street. He was thinking, "Wow, look at that" and then he realised, "Holy shit! That's my wife!". My sweetie may not have recognized me, but at least he thought I was cute.
[bracing self for one more]
Recently, someone introduced me to a new co-worker by saying, "Prolixity has the rare ability to distill her personality into her writing." It was one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. I know that I write the way I speak, I am always surprised when I meet someone for whom this is not true, but it was so nice to know that I truly come across in my efforts.
Don't be shy. Tell us a compliment you've received, or go ahead and give yourself one. Don't worry, Brother Julien is not here to dryly interject, "If you do say so yourself."
Comment diversion suggestions, carnations, and explanations of hasenpfeffer can be sent here.

Posted on 06/24/2011 12:25:31 AM PDT by Mount Athos
Eating an ultra low-calorie diet can cure Type 2 diabetes in just eight weeks, dramatic new research has shown.
Even people who have suffered from the condition for years found the drastic diet could jump-start their bodys production of insulin.
The breakthrough is good news for the nearly 2.5 million people in Britain who have this type of diabetes, which is caused by the pancreas not producing enough insulin to break down glucose in the blood.
It could revolutionise the treatment of what has always been seen as a lifelong problem.
Professor Roy Taylor, of Newcastle University, who led the research, said: To have people free of diabetes after years with the condition is remarkable and all because of an eight-week diet. For many years it has been assumed that Type 2 diabetes is a life sentence. Its chronic, its progressive, people need more and more tablets, and eventually they need insulin. Its a downhill slope. However, we have been able to show that it is in fact reversible.
We have been able to put diabetes into reverse by a very low-calorie diet over a short period of time.
What is really important and very new is the changes in the body that go along with this. Specifically, the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas have gone to sleep in Type 2 diabetes, they are not really doing very much.
As the level of fat in the pancreas has reduced, we have seen these insulin-producing cells come com- pletely back to normal, and that is truly remarkable.
He added: This represents a radical change in our understanding of the condition. Insulin cells, if they are exposed to fat, dont work. If they are protected from the fat they perform normally. It is quite possible that we may be able to devise medicines that block the effect of fat and allow normal function.
He warned patients, however, not to try the new wonder cure without close medical supervision.
Patients in the clinical trial had their food intake cut to just 600 calories a day for two months.
Professor Taylor said: People ought to think about cutting down what they eat by perhaps a half. On average, someone with a Body Mass Index of 30 will get diabetes. If they got down to a BMI of 19-25, which is the healthy range, it would dramatically improve or even reverse their diabetes.
A diet of 1,200 to 1,500 calories a day would achieve weight loss in most people.
Dr Iain Frame, director of research at Diabetes UK, also urged caution. We welcome the results of this research because it shows that Type 2 diabetes can be reversed, on a par with successful surgery without the side-effects, he said.
However, this diet is not an easy fix and Diabetes UK strongly recommends that such a drastic diet should only be undertaken under medical supervision.
Type 2 diabetes, which can cause strokes, heart attacks and blindness, normally develops during middle age as a result of obesity or an unhealthy lifestyle. The Type 1 version is genetic.
In the trial, 11 patients ate a meal-replacement milkshake of 150 calories three times a day.
This was supplemented with three portions of non-starchy vegetables including cabbage, broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, cucumber and lettuce.
After just one week, their pre-breakfast blood sugar levels had returned to normal and an MRI scan revealed that the fat levels in the pancreas were also normal, down from around eight per cent to six per cent.
The pancreas also regained the normal ability to make insulin and as a result, blood sugar levels after meals steadily improved.
The volunteers returned to eating normally but received advice on portion size and healthy eating. Three months later, seven remained free of diabetes.
The research, published in the journal Diabetologia, suggests a dramatic drop in calories has a direct effect on reducing fat accumulated in the pancreas, which in turn prompts insulin cells to wake up.
The findings are consistent with the belief that a lack of insulin secretion, which is vital for blood sugar control, is due to accumulation of fat in the liver and pancreas.
It has long been known that people who restrict their calorie intake and remain slim live longer than those who eat freely.
A low-calorie diet is also thought to slash the risk of developing cancer, heart disease and stroke, while staving off age-related degeneration of the brain and nervous system.
Seems like a violation of Le Chatelier's principle. The claim is that a reduction in a stress ( blood sugar ) will stimulate a response appropriate to its increase ( more insulin ). Not saying this is impossible, just puzzling.
My wife is type 2 and this is very interesting indeed.
I began a vegan diet with no added salt or sugar and focused on whole, fresh foods. I was off my diabetes meds within a month and my blood sugars are in the normal range still three months later. I don't really worry about calories...although have been slowly losing my extra pounds.
Type II diabetes is where you have plenty of insulin but the cell receptors for the insulin dont work. The drugs you take for Type II are not insulins but those to get those receptors working.
To say that this fad diet works by getting your pancreas to start pumping insulin is so stupid I laughed in my oatmeal.
Beta cell function declines in T2DM. The prevailing theory is that they simply burn out after years of overproduction due to insulin resistance of cells. Unless this diet can regrow beta cells the article is complete garbage.
That's how type II starts, as it progresses the pancreas stops producing insulin.
600 calories a day
Maybe it'll reverse the diabetes, maybe it won't. But it'll certainly damage your heart.
Just about anyone with Type II knows that when you diet and lose weight your blood sugar goes down and energy goes up.
To me this is study akin to "Breathing repeatedly found necessary for healthy living".
Exactly. Did you happen to glance at the actual article? 9 patients were studied. C peptides were tested before so it was known that all patients had functioning beta cells. Statins were continued. Oh, and length of their t2dm diagnosis was 4 years or less. Patients in this category typically have more than 50% beta cell function remaining, which is why metformin works first line for type 2 and isnt used in type 1 where there is no beta cell function. Basically what this article shows is if you are a newly diagnosed T2 that losing weight and reducing fat intake will help control your disease progression. Next thing you know they'll be telling us smoking is bad for you.
"Next thing you know theyll be telling us smoking is bad for you."
Having followed Freerepublic for years, it seems the majority opinion is that smoking will cure diabetes, democrapia, Alzheimer's and sexting.
If you do not subscribe to smoking is good for you, then expect vicious attacks.

'Health' reporters don't seem to know that most carbohydrates (especially those highly touted starches) turn into sugar quickly inside our bodies.
Here is a timely article from a heart disease related blog but it applies equally well to diabetes...
I took 4 Dark Chocolate anti-oxidant medifast shakes plus one medifast soup.
This is a very low calorie, very low fat/carb diet.
I also ate pickles and 'better than bullion' for the diabetes correction/weight loss phase.
Now that I'm trying to maintain my weight, I've added 2 oz of cheese, a can of kippers or fry up 1/4 - 1/2 pound of Black Angus beef. (In reality, I eat all the fish and beef that i want, I just rarely want more than 1/2 pound of meat a day.) I can eat chicken, but it's not appealing to me at the moment.
When I add the beef, fish and cheese, the diet goes from 500 calories a day to up to 1000 calories a day and is better for maintaining and not so good for weight-loss. I do lose with this, but much slower.
I lost 25 pounds in 2 months and have been maintaining my weight pretty well (I did lose another 5 pounds - for a total 30 pound loss, but I wasn't trying) for the the last month. I eat this maintenance diet for 5 days a week, then eat whatever the hell I want for two. (This give me an opportunity to go out to dinner or to enjoy a pizza party with my kids)
I now have normal blood sugars and I'm finding that I'm not gaining as easily as I used to on my 'pig-out' days. (So much for the 'starvation mode' hypothesis) I've gone from a size 20 jean to a size 12 and now the 12's are getting lose.
I'm still dealing with the long-term side effects of PCOS/pre-diabetes, but that's because I drank the wrong medifast shakes for the first two months. (Soy compounds those problems. The anti-oxidant shakes are whey-based.) I just switched to the correct shakes 3 weeks ago and I'm beginning to see an improvement.
(If anyone is interested, I'll get into the details of how soy can cause symptoms of PCOS to get worse in pre-menopausal women)
This diet is not dangerous. You've getting all of your minerals and vitamins and it's a heck of a lot better than starvation or fasting. The shakes even have pro-biotics and fiber.
I keep seeing the 'warnings' not to eat a very low calorie diet without a drs supervision, but I can't see how it can hurt someone to go without food (while taking supplements) for a couple of months. Our bodies are designed to manage famine conditions. Heck, the complete *lack* of famine conditions is what causes the disease state of Type 2 diabetes in the first place. (Eating 500 calories a day for longer than 2 months IS a problem. We *need* fat in our diets and the 4 shakes/1 soup regimen doesn't have enough fat.)
I would be very interested in hearing more. What is PCOS?
Actually, the body can regenerate beta cells.
Autopsies of type ones have found a lot of dead beta cells well out-side of the Islet of Langerhans.
I wonder with T2 if the Beta cells actually die or if they just go into hibernation.
I know that hormone-producing cells can become 'exhausted' and be brought back with a rest. "Adrenal fatigue" is one such example.
Only if you're not eating protein. Heart damage with crash-dieting happens because the body catabolizes organ tissues in an effort to get protein. I am very sure that these supplement shakes are protein-based specifically to prevent this from happening.
Carbs create T2 diabetes. I never fail to be stunned when I realize that there are still people who don't get this.
Both my cardiologist and primary have told me to lose 30 lbs. If I do, I "could" be off my medications (well...I'll still need the thorazine ;0]). Milkshakes and salads... its worth a shot.
You asked for it! lol!
PCOS is a syndrome of symptoms in women. It indicates a pre-diabetic state.
Here's a good profile of the creation of T2 diabetes in women:
- The woman's fat cells are less sensitive to insulin. this causes an increase of insulin production which, at this point, still manages to control blood sugar.
- The excess insulin causes a disruption of the hormones produced by the ovaries. Mainly, an increase in testosterone and FSH (Follicle-stimulating hormone: The hormone that stimulates an egg to mature on the ovary.) It causes a decrease in LH (Luteinizing Hormone: The hormone that actually causes the egg follicle to rupture and release the egg)
- the increase in FSH and the decrease in LH causes ovarian cysts and can cause a disruption of the menstrual cycle. This is a leading cause of infertility in women under 40 in this country.
- The increase of testosterone can cause: weight gain, acne, increase in belly fat, female-pattern baldness, facial/chest hair.
- Eventually, her fat cells are so insensitive, that no amount on insulin will get a response and she becomes a true diabetic.
(I can spot a woman with PCOS a mile away. Once a person is familiar with the symptoms, it's obvious.)
Most women experience some or all of these things long before their T2 diabetes develops enough to actually give them true diabetes (which is defined as elevated blood glucose)
Syndrom -X or metabolic syndrome is now recognized as the classic pre-diabetic state. The symptoms aren't quite as obvious in men because they're used to having testosterone.
- increase in belly fat
- skin tags
- fatigue
- high blood pressure
- high triglycerides
- difficulty losing weight
- heart palpitations
- PCOS (in women)
- memory problems
- depression
- acne
Of course, a person can have all of these symptoms or just a few.
The cure?
A full year with almost NO sugar carbs. (Undigestable fiber is fine, of course)
When I was twenty-nine, I did the low-carb Atkins Induction diet for six full months at the suggestion of my dr when I was first diagnosed with PCOS. I had a complete reversal of all of my symptoms and did great - until I followed the suggestion of my new doctor to gradually increase my carbs until i was eating 'normally'. (I still hate that man for that.)
After 4 years, I was right back where I started. I went back to the low carb diet, then got lazy and gradually went back to my old ways again.
Then I hit a wall.
Turned out that I had food intolerances and I was eating tons of the very foods that I couldn't tolerate when I was eating low-carb.
I discovered MF after a full year of low-carbing without a positive result. (I lost 25 pounds in that year, but I never felt well - again, it was the food intolerances, not the diet itself)
And that was the ticket. I'm now eating MF shakes (just like taking my vitamins) and a meat-based diet. No more problems.
Soy is NOT a good thing for a pre-menopausal woman, especially one with PCOS.
Soy has phyto-estrogens. These chemicals mimic estrogen in a big way.
But here's the problem: Phyto-estrogens are not a perfect replacement for our own natural estrogen.
If you already have your own estrogen, the flood of soy phyto-estrogens will cause your body to shut down it's natural estrogen production.
OK, now picture this:
You have a room with a thousand locks. All of the locks are slightly different, but your estrogen 'key' will unlock every one. Once estrogen does it's job, that lock will behave a certain way and keep you a girl.
The SPE key comes in and replaces the estrogen key. It's close enough to unlock 4/5 of the locks, but not precise enough to get all of them.
At first, things seem fine. There are thousands of locks and, at first glance, it looks like they're all opening without a problem with the SPE key.
But after a few weeks or months, you start to notice that things aren't exactly right. You're PCOS symptoms are actually getting worse!
That's because women have a natural amount of testosterone. If the lock isn't opened with estrogen, testosterone will open it instead. And you will get symptoms of testosterone dominance which is what you had with PCOS. (For me and a few other women I've known, this soy-induced testosterone dominance was actually much worse and more dramatic than PCOS itself. With that, we actually had an increase in aggression and a sex-drive off the charts along with a LOT of hair-loss)
So why is it OK for menopausal women to use soy?
Because they have *very* little natural estrogen and NONE of their locks are opening. Adding the SPE can help them tremendously, even though it's not perfect. It's still better than nothing and it opens many more locks than the synthetic garbage.
Hormones have a very delicate balance and they can be thrown off by many things. Be careful that when you fix one problem, you don't create another.
Absolutely fascinating article.
I've worked with diabetic cats for some years now and often changing the diet can be directly attributed to 'remission' of diabetes.
We never say 'cured' as it can come back, but many felines who are treated properly with diet and insulin early on...do often present as cured. The longer they are diabetic and on insulin the less likely remission becomes.
Now, this article is potentially presenting a similar finding.
Read more here, and google it too. A poster above was laughing at this since he mistakenly thought that insulin resistance is not affected by diet or weight status, but for the great majority of T2DMs, it is the overweight/obesity that increases their requirements for insulin. Indeed, about 25% of T2DM patients get insulin by injection to override the resistance when the other drugs cease working well.
Not something to be undertaken without caution and monitoring, especially for older folks. I'm curious if moderate exercise might also help during.
You are right on. Giving up all dietary starches and sugars will cure diabetes (type2) without having to cut calories. The goal should not be to only stop the diabetes but also to live in ultimate health. And it's far more pleasant for the patient not to be starving.
He must give up all foods made with grains, all beans, all sugared foods, all fake sugar. He can have 1-2 servings a day of low glycemic fruit, and one handful of nuts a day. The bulk of his diet should be meat from healthy animals (grass fed beef, pastured organic chickens), wild caught fish, organic full fat unsweetened dairy (yogurt and cheese), and all non starchy vegetables. Cook in good fats such as butter from healthy cows and coconut oil. Olive oil uncooked only- as in salads. It's easy to eat this way. No counting calories. Just no more grains.
"I've gone from a size 20 jean to a size 12..."
I am extremely proud of you! That is a significant lower jean size. You have to feel fantastic! (both mentally and physically). I know losing weight can be very difficult especially if you are cooking for other people. You have to eat what you can have but still make good meals for others. Good job!!!
Exercise can't hurt, but isn't necessary.
I am physically incapable of exercising. I lost 25 pounds with a low-carb diet and another 30 pounds with the suppliment meals. I have a 100% reversal of my pre-diabetes and PCOS.
At 40, I look better and am healthier than I was at 30.
I tell people, don't let the exercise thing discourage you. Move because it's good for you and it will make you feel better, but you don't have to do it to stop this horrible process.
Diet *is* necessary though.
Thanks mom!
I am proud! (big grin) I lost 27% of ME.
The weirdest part is that my perception is different in ways that I didn't imagine. I don't feel smaller. I feel *longer*. My chair feels bigger. I still keep giving my son my jeans when I'm folding laundry. (I'm used to the GIANT jeans being mine...)
I'm still not used to the image in the mirror. Every time I go into the bathroom I do a double-take.
It really is wonderful. :-)
...and raise LDL and Triglycerides.
My fasting blood sugar was approaching 100. My doc told me "Blood glucose is the rumble strip of life. You either wake up and manage it now or you will die young."
My fasting Bg was 145 and I'd go up to 190 after meals.
It's now a fasting of 90-100 and 100-115 after meals.
I think I've finally learned that this is not a problem that I can make go away forever. I'm only going to stay well if I keep up the LC diet. I can't get it under control, then eat whatever I want for months on end and expect to stay healthy.
It only took ten years to get past that denial.
You really should be proud! It takes a lot of work, sacrifice and commitment to lose that weight. It is constantly on your mind, too. I think that body image is that way for everyone who loses a good amount of weight. You are use to seeing yourself bigger and the "new" you is almost alien. For example, when you go clothes shopping.. do you reach for the bigger size first? You almost have to remind yourself that you are smaller. I think the hardest part is making yummies for the other family members and not eating them yourself. It takes a lot of will power to say "here is your lasagna, here is my salad with some boneless/skinless chicken breast". You are an inspiration!!
As a bread-lover, your link concerns me. However, my bread is made fresh from wheat I grind myself, not the processed, storebought stuff.
Should I still be concerned about consuming so much of "the staff of life"?
Sorry...that's far too narrow a definition of Type II diabetes.
My body produces more than enough insulin. The problem is at the cellular level where the insulin is not able to "unlock" the cell to gain entry so the cell can utilize the sugar in the blood stream and convert to energy.
Medicines like metformin and the glitizones can help the body use the insulin normally to eliminate the excess sugar in the blood stream.
A lower calorie diet will surely help but only when combined with regular exercise will these medications work at peak efficacy and in best case eventually not be needed.
Spot on. This article describes the Type I diabetes affliction.
And if it were as simple as maintaining a low calorie diet for 8 weeks...there would be no such thing as Type I diabetes. Now...where did I put my Glyburide?
My grandfather's generation consumed a diet loaded with carbohydrates yet diabetes and obesity were almost unknown. Many of these folks were employed in agriculture and worked like hell. Even the people employed elsewhere, for the most part, worked like hell. No obesity, no diabetes.
Demonizing one macronutrient over another is a common trait of diet fads and is, naturally, supported by the people who want to sell books touting the fads.
History has proven over and over again that you can sell diet advice more easily if you claim that fats or carbs are the problem while the obvious idea that calories are the problem seems to be something that few are prepared to pay for.
Excuse me. Unless this diet can regenerate/restore functioning beta cells that produce usable insulin it is complete garbage. Autopsies have shown beta cells in type 1s, thats true. Its the "autopsy" thing that makes it rough on the patient.
Five years ago I was 60 pounds heavier, ate/drank whatever I felt like that wasn't high in sugar, was sedentary, smoked a pack a day and had to take Metformin to control my blood sugar.
Then one day I experienced chest pains, which turned out to be heart disease. Four clogged arteries, two of which got stents.
I quit smoking, drastically changed my diet (low fat, low salt, low cholesterol, low sugar, whole grains, fruit, vegetables, nuts, ultra-lean meats), took up exercise, lost 60 pounds, and now my A1C is almost always in the low 5's (5.1 - 5.3), and I am not on Metformin.
My doc says that I have a history of diabetes, though I am not currently diabetic.
I *completely* agree with you that we are eating more overall, but our grandparents did not eat the amount of carbohydrates that we do. They certainly didn't eat the refined sugar and corn syrup that we do. My grandparents' generation ate substantially more fats than we do in the form of real butter and animal fats. Fruits and veggies were consumed seasonally. Go back a couple more generations and you'll find that wheat and corn flour wasn't refined even close to the point it is today, leaving a lot more fiber and making sugar carbs much less accessible.
When I talk about going on a very low/no carb diet, I'm talking about reversing a disease process that's already been started, not staying healthy if you're fine. People who're already sick will not respond to a reasonable diet. (I know. I tried to deal with the problem by eating a carefully measured, balanced 1200 calorie diet. It didn't work. I was already too far gone.)
Had we been eating the amounts of calories, carbs, fats and protein that our grandparents did, we'd be a much healthier society as a whole.
I also must note that people respond differently to the same diet. My husband can handle carbs much better than I can and is very healthy with a basic 100-160g of low glycemic index carbs. (Veggies and whole grains)
I am much more sensitive to carbs (I blame this on my Indian grandfather) and will become sick if I maintain a diet of only 60g of carbs.
There is no one diet that is perfect for every human.
One more thing: I never said that calories didn't count. As a matter of fact, I used a 500 calorie diet to lose weight and maintain with a 1000 calorie diet. (With short bursts of up to 1800 calories on my 'fun' days)
>My grandfather's generation consumed a diet loaded with carbohydrates yet diabetes and obesity were almost unknown. Many of these folks were employed in agriculture and worked like hell. Even the people employed elsewhere, for the most part, worked like hell. No obesity, no diabetes.

The link below leads to an e-book published in 1864 - and it is a 3rd edition of the work:
That book would suggest that obesity and diabetes has been with us for quite some time. I will agree with you that in today's society, obesity is skyrocketing. Can this be due to the huge amounts of carbohydrate based foodstuffs the average person consumes? Go to the store and notice that sugar is added to almost everything processed, as is corn starch or wheat. Even "diet" TV dinners are loaded with carbohydrates, which are used as a substitute for the lack of fat. "Low fat" is the rage these days.
My dad was a doctor. He was born in 1908. When we cleaned out the house, we found diet sheets for diabetics that counseled patients to severely restrict not only sugar, but breads, cereals and other common starchy foods.
Here's the thing. When you really lower calories, you are also lowering the carbohydrate content of an individual's diet. This lowers blood sugar, decreases the amount of insulin in the blood and improves the health of the diabetic.
Obesity (and the other disorders that make up metabolic syndrome) is a sign that a person's insulin levels in his/her bloodstream are far too high. Carbohydrates are proven to cause the body to secrete insulin. The modern diet is way heavier in carbohydrate than is healthy, even when the person is eating "healthy" whole grain products.
You have to realize that T1 diabetes is an autoimmune process. All new beta cells are destroyed by the same autoimmune process which destroyed the original cells.
I don't know if beta cells regenerate in T2's the same way.
With long-standing T2's who've lost beta cell function, this diet can't hurt. At it's worst, it can restore insulin sensitivity to fat cells and help with BG control. It can also reverse the effects of hormonal imbalance in general and help with problems associated with diabetes (weight loss, PCOS, elevated triglycerides, etc.)
Hyperinsulinemia causes just as many problems as elevated blood glucose.
Some people do reverse their T2 diabetes with calorie restriction alone, but there is the phenomena of the 'skinny type 2 diabetic' that has to be taken into consideration. Not all type 2's are fat. Calorie consumption alone is not responsible for type 2 diabetes.
And if it were as simple as maintaining a low calorie diet for 8 weeks...there would be no such thing as Type I diabetes. Now...where did I put my Glyburide?
Actually, this article *is* talking about Type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. The sufferer's Beta cells are killed off completely by their own immune system. There is no 'cure' for Type 1 diabetes.
My son is a Type 1 diabetic.

Essex Boundary Club – Upcoming Events
The Essex Boundary Club are pleased to announce two special upcoming events for Members and supporters. Essex County Cricket Club will first be commemorating those who fell during the Great War between 1914-1918 with a trip to Ypres in Belguim. This will take place during October with travel and accomodation included.
This event is followed by the annual City Lunch at the Minster Exchange in London which will look back and celebrate the 1979 County Championship victory, joined by special guests John Lever and Ray East.
Find out more information on the Essex Boundary Club – here
Great War Commemoration:
The Essex Boundary Club in association with the Peter Edwards Museum and Library have arranged to lay a wreath at the Menin Gate in Ypres as an act of remembrance for the twelve Essex cricketers who lost their lives in the First World War.
This will take place during the nightly 8pm 'Last Post' ceremony at the Menin Gate on Thursday 9 October 2014.
There is an overnight package so that any Essex Cricket Members and supporters who wish to attend may do so together with friends or family.
Coach transport:
Travel will be by executive coach from the The Essex County Ground at 10am on the Thursday 9 October and, following a ferry crossing to Calais, would hope to arrive in Ypres at approximately 4pm. Overnight accommodation at the Albion and Ambrosia Hotels has been arrange, which are both within five minutes walking distance of the Menin Gate.
On the following day we plan to visit the Essex Farm Cemetery at Ypres Salient. This battlefield location is where it is believed that, on the evening of the 2 May 1915, Major John McCrae composed the now famous poem "In Flanders Fields".
Following that will be a visit the town of Poperinghe which billeted quarter of a million soldiers in 1917 whereas its population was just 12,000. It was affectionately known as "Pop" by the British soldiers.
The return journey will be early evening on Friday 10 October.
The cost is £165 per person (based on two people sharing) and includes all exclusive travel to and from Chelmsford and one night's bed & breakfast at either of the hotels listed.
35th Anniversary Lunch – Celebrating Essex's County Championship Win in 1979
The Essex Boundary Club are holding this year's City Lunch to celebrate Essex winning win the County Championship for the first time in 1979.
The venue will once again be The Minster Exchange, Minster Court, London on Thursday 13 November 2014.
Our special guests are two of the most popular players from that triumphant Essex side – Ray East and John Lever.
East is widely regarded as one of the cricket's funniest characters and was also an outstanding slow left-arm spin bowler with 1,010 first class wickets to his name. Lever's playing career spanned 22 years with Essex and he took 1,473 first class wickets with his left-arm fast bowling.
As always at The Minster Exchange, an excellent three-course lunch is assured and the cost to Essex Boundary Club Members is £55 per head (£65 per guest).
If you have any queries or would like further details on either of the above events please contact Malcolm Rowley on 01245 284929 (direct line) or email: firstname.lastname@example.com Source : Essex Boundary Club – Upcoming Events
