Doug Reynolds is the author of The Road to Metabolic Health, the Founder and CEO of LowCarbUSA® and President of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners.   

LowCarbUSA (now called Symposium of Metabolic Health) provides a platform for internationally renowned scientists and medical practitioners to present the ever-increasing body of evidence on the benefits of reducing carbohydrates in the diet and adding in healthy fats. It has now evolved into one of the primary resources for the low carb community.  This includes a huge library of educational videos, a growing database of practitioners and dietitians and sports trainers who are open to the carb reduction conversation as well as a searchable database for papers and articles covering the research into the evidence supporting this lifestyle.  

The SMHP is a non-profit for practitioners focused on metabolic health and they have a panel of advisors to oversee the creation and maintenance of a set of ‘Clinical Guidelines for Therapeutic Carbohydrate reduction’ which was first published in May, 2019.  The SMHP also defines numerous pathways for accreditation and the forums encourage open discussion which helps to establish Standard of Care around carbohydrate reduction.

The Fabulously Keto Diet & Lifestyle Journal: A 12-week journal to support new habits – Jackie Fle

 Gayle Gerry qualified in 1998. She spent her first 8 years in Accident & Emergency, and was also in the Army reserves as a Nursing officer. During this time she did operational tours to Kosovo, then was compulsory mobilised to Iraq in 2003 as a specialist A&E nurse based in the 200 bedded field hospital.

The move to general practice was by accident when she met a GP who was desperate for a nurse. At this point she was looking to change career.

She met a patient in 2012 who ended up putting this diabetes into remission, and her curiosity from this, led her to where she is today. 

She is an ambassador for the PHC. She has run group consultations for diabetes remission since 2019 both face to face and online, and is one of the organisers of the Primary Care Lifestyle conference, which she is  now planning the 4th one. 

She also leads a session on David Cavern’s (endocrinologist) health care professionals course – low carb for type 2 diabetes.

 Netta Gorman is the person behind Life After Sugar… because real life carries on even when you’re sugar free. Netta has been living happily free from sugar, flour and sweeteners since July 2015 (6 years now!). She spent most of her thirties and early forties struggling with chronic constipation and digestion issues but she never thought that her love for chocolate and desserts had anything to do with it. Doctors kept telling her to eat more fibre, but this was making things worse, not better. 

In July 2015, she got to a breaking point where her pain and suffering was so bad that she decided to do something she’d never tried before: cut out sugar, flour and sweeteners for a temporary period of just 2 weeks. And to her complete amazement, she felt so much better that she just carried on and never looked back! 

One thing that still amazes her is that her tastes changed, and now she doesn’t even *like* sweet tastes any more (whereas before, she was the world’s #1 sweet tooth). And most of all, the one word that sums up her life after sugar is “freedom” – freedom from cravings, from energy crashes, from that love-hate relationship with sugar, from all the health issues she had. And this is why she decided to help other people to get to this place of freedom and peace with food and with themselves, with the Life After Sugar Program.

 Dr Jim Waller moved to a low carb diet over 20 years ago, as part of a healthy lifestyle and because of his family history of significant cardiovascular disease. Dr Jim Waller is a retired colorectal surgeon.

Betsy was in the Women’s Army Corp. She was then a Vocational Rehabilitation Counsellor and has lifelong interest in movement therapies, sports medicine, kinesiology and yoga.

Betsy met Jim in 2020, 51 years after graduating the same high school class. They had both lost their spouses and they got together and are now married.

Betsy thought she was eating healthily when she was stuck in the belief system that she now calls the “dark years”. What seemed logical kept her in lifelong restrictive eating patterns in order to subscribe to “calories in – calories out” with the belief that most meat is bad. 

With Jim’s long experience of low carb she has learned to love beef and to focus on protein. Betsy discovered The Fabulously Keto Podcast in 2021 and is an avid listener. Using The Fabulously Keto Diet and Lifestyle Journal she continued to modify and use it as a consistent method to “assess, plan, implement and evaluate”

Betsy subscribes to weighing daily. She plans Friday though Sunday as her best time periods to start and stop for weekly reflections. She may be moving from a lifelong abstainer to a moderator. She is also adopting a radical daily regime to end all showers and bathing with as much “cold” time to assist in her longevity habit.

 Karen Gaul says:

I’m 71 years old & have been dieting since the age of 9! Yes 9 years old…hard to believe but true.

My mum had taken me to our family GP with concerns about my development as I was somewhat bigger than my peer group. If more thought had been given then both mum & the GP would perhaps have realised I was at the start of puberty…earlier than most but true.

My early puberty resulted in decades of see-saw dieting following in the footsteps of my mum who was a serial dieter…I hadn’t known anything other than mum on a diet! Like so many I have a hundred & one reasons to diet & can probably tell you my weight at different stages of my life.

However my dad dying with Alzheimer’s in 2012 was a huge factor in my decision to not be in the same situation in my older years…at this stage I was almost 60!

It was time to make changes in all aspects of my life including sleep nutrition movement & mindset. A lower carb way of life was part of those changes & today I feel amazing. But a diagnosis of cancer last year made me realise if I hadn’t worked so hard my recovery post hysterectomy & subsequent treatment would have had a different outcome.
