    Don't lowcarb and drive???

    At least - dont drive a plane!!
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6535517.stm
    apparently the 'legal limit' for an airline pilot is much lower than for driving a car so we should be fine!
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

            I wonder if this could cause problems if a cop pulled you over and your breath smelled like you had been drinking (but you weren't).

                Thanks Elizellen. This was hysterical. I also had no idea. Anyone out there married to a policeman with a breathalizer who can check this out and give us the scoop if its true or not?? lolol

                  Is anyone else not affected by the breath factor with regard to low-carbing? (Here are a few home tests for this.) Of course, I would imagine this would be a problem if one only - or mostly - consumed meats and fats. But are there Atkins followers finished with Induction who eat a variety of non-starchy vegetables and low-glycemic fruits who are nonetheless afflicted by halitosis?

                    I don't seem to suffer from Ketosis breath. But after reading the article in your post, I don't really know.
                    Nobody has said anything to me about it.

                      That is just too sad. And they couldnt take his word for it, can you imagine the embarassment that poor feller went thru?
