Preface - After a detailed analysis of
Dr. Richard Bernstein's very low carb
diet, with multiple reviews posted over
several weeks, I posted my conclusions
on July 14, 2016, at
Insulinitis, Cellosis, & Bernstein's
Dire Drastic Very Low Carb Diet

In a recent 2018 analysis, USA Today
did not include Dr. Richard Bernstein's
Very Low Carb Diet. It did include some
diets that are close to the Bernstein
Diet which promotes 30 carbs per day
max, and they analyzed 40 diets.
Close to the Bernstein diet: Keto Diet,
Atkins Diet, Paleo Diet

Fast weight loss, the hook, -but-
keeping the weight off and staying
on the diet, that's difficult, and
the overwhelming majority don't
stay hooked.

On May 17, 2010, I created a detailed proposal
for changing all of the confusing & misleading
diabetes and diabetic names -and- changing the
confusing reactive hypoglycemia name:
Diabetes Bubble / Diabetes Bubble Burst
http://prohuman.net/diabetesbubblediabetesbubbleburst.htm
Promotion of a Cure for Insulinitis
http://prohuman.net/cureinsulinitisassociation.htm
Glucose Anomalies Research regarding Potential
Cures / Improvements in Treatments
http://prohuman.net/glucoseanomaliesresearch.htm
Name changes for old outdated diabetes and
diabetic words are desperately needed to
eliminate the confusion and misleading that
transpires when those words are used without
clarifiers, which often happens.
A brief summary of what the article linked
to above contains:
dark red = Insulinitis (type 1 diabetes, juven-
ile diabetes, insulin dependent diabetes, rapid
onset near-total to total loss of endogenous
insulin),
11 specific types, 3 specific types disputed
dark pink = Latent Autoimmune Insulinitis (lat-
ent autoimmune diabetes, slow onset Insulinitis),
1 specific type
dark blue = PreCellosis (prediabetes, but only
applies to increased risk of getting Cellosis),
Cellosis (type 2 diabetes, continued but re-
duced insulin production over time, typically
slow onset),
21 specific types
light blue = Gestational Cellosis (gestational
diabetes), 1 specific type (transient but can
increase the risk of later getting Cellosis)
dark green = Diminosis (maturity onset diabetes
of the young, diminished but continuing insulin
production caused by a monogenetic defect),
11 specific types
light green = Neonatal Diminosis (neonatal dia-
betes, diminished but continuing insulin produc-
tion caused by a monogenetic defect in the first
6 months after birth), 8 specific types are per-
manent, 4 specific types are transient
purple = Ohiglucons, Other High Glucose Condi-
tions (other diabetes mellitus), 24 specific
types:
- 5 specific types are drug or chemical-
induced,
- 5 specific types result from endocrino-
pathies,
- 7 specific types involve exocrine or
pancreas diseases or surgical treatment,
- 4 specific types result from insulin action
defects,
- 2 specific types result from other genetic
syndromes,
- 1 specific type results from anti-insulin
receptor antibodies
gray = Insipidus (diabetes insipidus), 6 spe-
cific types (4 are non-glucose anomalies,
2 specifc types include high glucose)
bright red = Hypoglycemia Uncaused by Treatments
for High Glucose, Hut (reactive
hypoglycemia, hyperinsulinism),
21 specific types
