Aip diet vs fasting for joint pain and inflammation

[1rawdog]

Apparently the skin prick tests have a high false positive rate, but a low false negative rate, which means they are still useful as an initial screen, with positive results not being taken as gospel, but rather serving as a flag for further testing (e.g. elimination diet + more blood work).

I would be more concerned if there was a high false negative rate as that could give someone a false sense of security...whereas a false positive might result in someone simply avoiding/eliminating something that isn't actually harmful to them.

The high false positive test with the hypothetical lung example would be a concern *if that was the only test available* with which to then make a very extreme decision like lung removal...but its false positive rate would be much less concerning if it served as a screen to flag people for further follow up.

Agreed with all of that. Same scenario for blood tests which is what buddy brought up. I felt the need to use a dramatic and simple analogy due to having dealt with who I was replying to in the past.

I wouldn’t know I don’t bother with stuff like that , the funny thing is you haven’t actually posted yourself on here which drops your credibility so you really can’t connect with anyone I post myself bc I’m a public figure so ?

That seems to go over your head , looks like a hit a nerve with this one ? Posting other guys pics ,that must be an accomplishment for you ? Lol


Here I’ll show you how it’s done at 50 which I bet I still look at least a decade younger then you do ? Laugh at that . You like to laugh right ? Lol

Of course I did it all with whey protein as well.

This dude definitely has a protein coach.

Is the reasoning here because of the type of sugar - fructose vs glucose and sucrose etc or does it come down to the amount of carbs consumed? The main reason I ask is what if a guy hated fruit or something and just wanted to "spend" his carbs on some bread product or similar? Still effective for the reasons people would eat a keto type diet?

The reason is because it's easier to keep carbs low on fruit because they're high in fiber and water. However if you hated fruit you could just eat something else as long as the carbs were low enough to trigger metabolic switching in this instance.

Ketone bodies are known to have an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effect. Reducing carbs and triggering use of ketones would be the first thing I try. You should be able to get there easily with daily IF and lowering carbs. You want metabolic switching to occur, meaning glucose gets low enough that your body switches to ketones. Even if you eat later in the day for at least part of the day you were using ketones. It doesn't mean it'll fix the shoulder issue, but it might be less annoying as long as you're eating that way.

If you're looking for a specific diet, something like paleo would work. Like a hunter-gatherer diet where you're fasting for a long period of time, and eat plenty of meat and fruit like berries or apples when you do eat. Not cornflakes, bread, cakes, etc, like in a modern diet.

I mainly eat a lot of steamed rice as my carb source. How do you feel about this? Still better to give it up?

I had a skin prick test done for seasonal allergies that really was a game changer for me but I don't really remember it including food allergies. Are tests for food allergies done the same way?
