The Sugar Busters diet is also based on a low SIMPLE CHO diet (i.e. carbohydrates with low "glycemic index"). The theory is to keep your blood sugar fluctuations (and therefore your insulin fluctuations) flattened over the day, decreasing appetite and also better for your health.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
