I have following to Frank Suarez, a nutritionist, who has a Youtube channel and it is the owner of a series of cliniques for weight control and general health. I have watched several videos and he explains for the masses in simple terms aspects of the physiology and pathology. Sometimes he is not correctly academic in the way he expresses, but the idea general does. He has common ground with many concepts and conclusions about diet and topics of health we talked about in this forum.
He claims that its cliniques in several countries in LA and Spain attend miles of patients per month which gives him the chance to prove his hypothesis and receive immediate feedback.
When a person can't control sugar and diabetes he claims that there is high chance that the person is consuming an aggressor food (AF). What is an aggressor food?
As a definition, an AF it is a food that raises the level of glucose in the blood over 70-80 mg/dl two hours after eating it alone in a small quantity or those that fall bellow 65 mg/dl (hypoglycemic response). He has reported that for its wife, for example, shrimps are aggressors because rises her glucose. He has reported that the common aggressors are gluten, milk, and corn, and there are surprises for some peoples like pork meat, some fats, almond milk, coffee, virtually any food.
He told that if fasting glucose at wake up is equal to or greater than 85 mg/dl it is very probable that that person is eating an AF inadvertently. Once the AF's are removed, everything starts to run smoothly in the metabolism of that person, even some conditions disappear.
The immune system acts as though the food is an aggressive element and arise glucose to prepare for a fight response. There are extreme cases where an AF causes havoc in glucose levels for up to three days.
For detect an AF you need a glucometer and take your glucose level after and two hours of eating only the food you want to test in small quantity (not defined).
The utility I see of this approach is that is an empirical and practical way to allay doubts if there any suspicion that a food is making us bad apart from the "how we feel" test, particularly if it is not a carb.

He also talks about eating according to your nervous system. There are people with a predominantly parasympathetic (passive) nervous system and sympathetic (active). There is also a test to check what is your system like. I will tell you later about that because it is late here.
