Brian Peskin - Testimonials 3

• I thought you may be interested to know I have just competed in the London Marathon, and I did it! 5:29:59. Not only did I do it, but low-carb as well. I ignored all the advice written in the various magazines and articles. I stuck to Brian's program. Runners talk of ‘hitting the wall.’ All I can say is ‘what wall?’ There were diabetes testing stations around the course. I stopped to be tested. The nurses said my sugar was a bit low. I knew it was perfect. It seemed churlish to refuse their offer of sweets. After all, they seemed so concerned about me. I took some and threw them away after I had gone a few yards. The other remarkable thing is I recovered so quickly. With kindest regards ……Trevor L., London, U.K.

• Two years ago I had my first bone density scan – at my request. I’d taken dilantin for 30 years, went through menopause with no hormones, and am a coffee drinker. The results: osteopenia. Medical advice: get more calcium. My reaction: confusion, since I have lots of calcium in my diet. My mother-in-law has osteoporosis and my neighbor has a more advanced case. I watched them take fosamax, drink 3 glasses of milk, and decline and have more pain. Last month, I had my second bone scan. Doc said, ‘Your bones are good – keep exercising.’ The results are incredible. Two years ago at age 58 my bone density was 80 mg/cm3 while average was 111. Today my bone density is 117 and average has dropped to 106. I increased nearly 50% while that average person lost. In 2 years I went from the bones of a 75-year old to the bones of a 56-year old. I used to have headaches that lasted 2-3 days and didn’t respond to aspirin. After a year or two on Brian's program, my headaches almost disappeared. They’re rare, mild, and respond to aspirin. I just had my teeth cleaned. The hygienist asked if my dilantin had been decreased --- my gums are the healthiest she’s ever seen them. Let’s not overlook my blood profile. My cholesterol is 206 (high they say) and my HDL is 80 (high). There’s a note beside that that says, “good to be high.” Not bad for someone who’s eating butter, beef, and close to 2 dozen eggs per week. I’m grateful. Thanks. H. H., IA.

• I am a 60-year old man and have followed Brian's program. When I started I was almost 200 pounds and border line high blood pressure. I am only 5’ 8”. I have had blind migraines since I was in 5th grade. I lost almost 30 pounds. Blood pressure is normal, and I haven’t had a migraine since starting The Program. A lot of people are blessed by your research. Glen M., Johnson, VT.
