Work in Progress; see ""F" for Dr. Fuhrman's Nutritarian links

This page collects up links to web pages about health and nutrition, tailored to my interests and concerns (saving the NSA and internet providers the trouble of fishing through my browsing history). Be advised that there is a lot of duplication because the links are organized by keyword. Search capability provided by your browser!

Warning: it is not easy to choose among all the conflicting advice provided on the internet; you must walk through these landmines cautiously. Over time, I hope to identify which advice should not be followed, but that may take some time. And your mileage may vary; after all, we are all a little different! For my questions: FAQ

• My Questions
• [1] Dr. Berg suggested that ingestion of fat doesn't increase the creation of insulin (as does carbohydrates and protein). And he says there are no essential carbohydrates. In the Nutrition course, however, Prof. Anding says that carbohydrates are necessary for brain and muscle function. That's confusing!
• [2] Does "30 minutes exercise daily" mean 'all at once', or spread throughout the day (ten minutes here, ten minutes there, etc.)?
• [3] When testing one's blood sugar, how much time should elapse between ingestion of food and taking a measurement?
• [4] Does a drop of 50 points in a week (to below 130) constitute success, or should I expect numbers to fluctuate more like a yo-yo over time?
• [5] I think it's very interesting that he has a disclaimer at the beginning of the video that says "The content does not provide medical advice, professional diagnosis, opinion, treatment or services to you or to any other individual, and is not a substitute for medical or professional care. Do not use this information in place of a visit, consultation, or advice of your licensed healthcare provider." It almost makes you wonder what's the point of buying or reading his books! That's why I decided to make a web page with all the conflicting information I have been gathering on the internet. But how can I get consultation or advice about the Nutritarian Diet unless the licensed healthcare provider reviews the material?
