The
Hauser Lion Diet Type®
60% protein / 25% fat / 15% carbs
The Lion Diet is a true carnivorous diet which contains the highest
amounts of protein and fat of all the Diet Types. It is typically
recommended therapeutically for people whose Diet Typing results
show abnormalities in both the glucose tolerance test and blood
pH.
Two different patterns of glucose tolerance results both need
the Lion Diet. A “true” Lion will be a fast oxidizer of food and
have
acidic blood pH. The second pattern, which is quite common in overweight
America, also has acidic blood pH, but the glucose tolerance test
shows a slow oxidizer with high insulin levels (insulin resistance).
This person also needs a Lion Diet to regain insulin sensitivity.
Thus, the Lion Diet is very high in protein and fat,
with a very small amount of carbohydrates. Eating these foods
regularly (every 3-4 hours, even including a snack before bed) helps
to prevent blood sugar swings, raise blood pH, and lower insulin
levels, thus, trying to normalize the Lion's abnormal physiology.
