Jan Kwasniewski comment

Just a few quickies as time on the net has vanished again!

This came by email from Agata, who I guess is Polish speaking and reads one of the several web sites in Polish for OD eaters.


"Hello, I can't comment on your blog as it's only allowed for blog
owners, but:

- to augment some information from previous posts about JK:

He allows (in publicised answers to patients' letters) fasting one day a
week, if someone has trouble losing weight. Also, as a last resort, he
advises to eat 80% of the daily carb allowance in the evening - separately.

He says coconut oil is ok, however his son Tomasz Kwasniewski once wrote
on the website's forum that any oil (including CO) has zero 'biological
value' for humans and contains no enzymes for its digestion.

His son is an admin on the forum, from his posts I presume he's
background is in food technology. From time to time on a whim he
explains a bit more than his father, yet it's all full of biochemical
jargon and chains of chemical formulas - indigestible for myself.
Anecdotally, he dubs JK The Master of Simplification.

I started OD only recently, thanks to your blog, and loving it.
Thank you and good luck"


I love the idea of JK as the master of simplification. The biochemistry after eating is so complex, the choices so simple. The knock on effects of wrong choices so far reaching...

Thanks to Agata for the comment.
