    Re: Coffee Addiction

    Carb soy milk is not induction legal - Soy is allowed on rung 6. If you need something in coffee cream is better to use as it is allowed.

        Re: Coffee Addiction

        because of the soy. Dr A wants us to slowly introduce carbohydrates (especially items that mix protein and carbohydrates *beans*) after an induction of getting the majority of your carbohydrates from vegetables and the rest from occassional dairy products. IN rung 6, he has us add in nuts and seeds. At only 2 Carbs per cup, you could add around 2 during that rung. If at that time your body responds nicely to the soy then you can keep it as a part of your WOE forever. The importance of a "clean" induction is to get your body into ketosis and "cleanse" your body of any toxins that may have built up from years of eating like we used to.

        Sorry if that didn't make sense LOL I am sleepy!

            Just a correction - nuts and seeds is rung 3. Beans and legumes is rung 6 and that's when you can add soy products.
