Have you read these?

Biochemical Individuality. Roger j. Williams
The Ketogenic Diet. Lyle MacDonald”

Yes, I have read the latter.

And, exactly what advice have I been “dispensing” other than to beware of the fraud of vLCD diet advice being dispensed by someone who refuses to verify her own claimed weight loss and maintenance.

More importantly: Where exactly are Kimmer/Heidi Diaz’s credentials to be dispensing any medical and/or nutritional advice?

The passion that the two of you exhibit seems uniformed. Human nutrition is not an exact science. Human beings do not all have identical nutritional needs. Nutritional science, if it can be called that in it’s present state, offers only advice based on generalities. That advice may have some merit to an individual as a starting point but in the case of a particular individual that advice can be lethal. Your advice as well as Kimmer’s advice will, in some specific situation, be the entirely wrong advice. However, what Kimmer has proposed is not unique. Criticism of it are based on theories but not on empirical evidence. What empiracle evidence there is suggests that a ketogenic diet is quite healthy for many people. There is space here for only one example. The entire company of the Lewis & Clark expedition subsisted on a diet of lean meat for most of their two year journey without any apparent negative effects.

Thank you for your feedback! Have a great day!

Never once have I mentioned anything “personal” about the woman - not bashing anything.

K-Wannalose, what’s in your coffee? What about constipation? What kind of chicken? What have you eaten the last 3 days?

OP-Coffee:SF carmel 2g carbs,30 cals,2.5 g fat, per tbsp (I use 2 carefully measured) sweet n low (1 packet) 1 cup day. 2 days ago I had 2 cups.
Friday Hardly nothing to eat,c 2 cups coffee,2 diet drinks,water
saturday,1/4 chicken breast cooked in George Forman w/ salt,coffee my way,Snow cone w/ SF syrup2oz (did not measure) 5 cals,o carbs o fat,2 diet cokes,
Today Roast beef broiled in oven about the size if a tennis ball 1 diet coke,1 cup of coffee.Constipation? I took laxatives three days ago.Thanks!!!

K-When did the water fast end? You are losing at this very minute! Keep in mind that meat, chicken & fish have zero fiber so there’s nothing to “push them through”.
Have you considered taking a mild laxative each night you’re doing “protein only”? Or, hate to even suggest it, make up a batch of the horrible Epsom salt solution and take a couple tablespoons each night?
How much have you been losing each day before? You’re still losing that right now. When things “move”, you’ll have a whoosh that will bring you up to date.
OP-Thanks Again SO MUCH!!! I was STRESSING!!! Kimmer, You are SO Special!! Kimmer!!! Do you see me today???? 177!!!!! 2 pounds girl!!! Woo Hoo!! Thank You so much for last night!!!
Uniquelymade,I’m hypothyroid on 75 mcg of levothroid. This is working AWESOMELY for me. I probably eat maybe 10 carbs a day if even that! Good Luck!!

So, keep the facts staight people!

I wouldn’t suggest anyone take a laxative for any reason, as I’m not a healthcare professional (yet). I most certainly would NEVER tell that person to take it DAILY while on a particular diet plan, especially when that is contrary to the label directions of the product(s) in question.

I don’t care who kimmer is or if her pics are real or fake. I do care however that she is giving out dangerous quasi-medical advice, and has extensively in the past, and is now trying to pretend that was never done.

Now this has gone way beyond a few choice comments and actions. I would advice Mr. Moore see an attorney to put a stop to this.

I am the show’s producer (most regulars here know me). For the record, I do have access to editing and removing comments.

I have not done so, as I don’t personally know too much about Kimkins, and I’m interested to see everyone’s thoughts both pro and con I don’t have any intention to.

Although please don’t take that as an invitation to be either uncivil or to post anything legally actionable!

I enjoy seeing a vigorous discussion, so by all means feel free to post your own perspectives, pro or con.

What the definition of Slander?
A type of defamation. Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person’s reputation or standing in the community. Because slander is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. If the statement is made via broadcast media — for example, over the radio or on TV — it is considered libel, rather than slander, because the statement has the potential to reach a very wide audience.

What the definition of Libel?
An untruthful statement about a person, published in writing or through broadcast media, that injures the person’s reputation or standing in the community. Because libel is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. Libel is a form of defamation , as is slander (an untruthful statement that is spoken, but not published in writing or broadcast through the media).

Now this has gone way beyond a few choice comments and actions. I would advice Mr. Moore see an attorney to put a stop to this.

And to Morgan, tell me if you knew someone was constipated you wouldn’t recommend a laxative. And thanks for pointing out that I am not supposed to recommend a diet coke to someone who is thirsty either.
It is easy to see which side is more mature in this argument.
And please everyone who is calling Jimmy edit happy, post proof or quit doing it. No one believes you. It is my understanding he did it as a joke once and ALSO posted the UN EDITED version. So what. And this blog site does not allow for editing comments to my understanding (at least I can’t on my blog).

Please grow up.

Obviously Jimmy had to remove the Atkins ad, but the fact that he is leaving all your childish comments about it proves that he isn’t trying to hide the fact.

You seem like you’d love to find a conspiracy or something because the ad went away, but I don’t see it.

Here’s the part that got cut:

“We’ll get into that in just a moment.

First I wanted to tell you about the Atkins products from Atkins Nutritionals. There are bars and shakes, candy, books, all kinds of things available from Atkins, and, with the bars actually you can have the Atkins Advantage bars, the original bars provide all the nutrition your body needs to keep you moving when you’re on the go. There’s also the Atkins Advantage Caramel Bars, I especially like these, these are new and if you have not tried them they are superior to most of the ??? even the candy bars that are out there, and the creamy caramel makes it taste that much better. There’s also the Atkins Advantage granola bars which has a superior mix of crunchy goodness of granola for nutrition on the go as well, and finally for your breakfast needs there’s the Atkins Advantage Morning Start Bars which has lots of protein and fiber as well as a good source of calcium to get you through your day. So again that is Atkins Advantage products and if you will visit the show notes section at The Living Low Carb Show dot com, click on the banner ad for Atkins Nutritionals.”

But the length of the podcast is still incorrect. Since editing out the Atkins Nutritionals commercial, it’s no longer 17:11, it’s only 15:56.

Obviously the folks over at Atkins Nutritionals were not amused at the idea of actually sponsoring the low-fat, starvation Kimkins scam!

However, the following is still in the text copy that leads one to the podcast: “Also in today’s show, Jimmy gives thanks to our sponsor Atkins Nutritionals, purveyors of delicious low-carb bars and more. Try them TODAY!”

Oh look, now when you click on “Check out all of our GREAT sponsors!”, Atkins Nutritionals doesn’t even show up anymore!!! Why not???!?!?!!

I’ve had about enough of this farce now.

Second, SHE IS NOT A DOCTOR and she is giving out quasi-medical advice. She cannot rightfully say that “you can take a fiber hit for a few months” - without any medical or healthcare training AT ALL.

The more she talks, the worse I feel about the whole situation and you know I’ve been trying hard to stay on that fence and not leap to one side or the other.

I wonder what Atkins Nutritionals thinks about sponsoring an interview with ‘Kimmer’ who BASTARDIZED the Atkins diet into a low-fat starvation diet??!?!?!
