Why you should believe this

Here is some background...

I'm 28 years old as I write this in 2001.  Despite eating a "healthy" low fat, high carbohydrate diet, I spent the majority of my life heavily overweight, hitting 300 lbs in college (6'4" tall).  I have high blood sugar.  I've had 3 knee surgeries and I have a screw in my knee.  I've had nosebleeds regularly since I was a child.   I was on some form of broad-spectrum antibiotic for the majority of the time between 1985 and 1997 to deal with recurring chronic sinusitis and strep throat.  In one semester of college  in 1993, I spent $1000 on antibiotics to stop sinus infections.  My joints hurt most of my life.  My energy level was very low and I basically felt like crap all the time.   I was also prone to occasional outbursts of anger, but not anything too strange.   I grew up with asthma and horrible seasonal allergies affecting my lungs and skin.

Today

I weigh 235 pounds (ok, 240).  I still have high blood sugar but it's falling.  My joints haven't hurt once in 4 years.  My nose doesn't bleed any more.  I don't take antibiotics but my chronic sinusitis is cured (without the surgery the doctor recommended).  I have more energy than I can imagine (look at www.asprey.net home page if you don't believe that...).   I haven't been angry about anything in a very long time.  I don't have seasonal or skin allergies anymore.  I feel good most of the time and I don't have the fuzzy feeling I used to have in my head.

This web site will explain how I did all of this and more, without help from doctors.
