Then you'll find that the diet picked by the most health-conscious lot will do best because the health-conscious lot will do best regardless of the merits of the diet.You know... We are all going about this the wrong way.
Everyone chooses a diet, eats it, tests or not, and 9x out of 10, they defend their chosen diet and lifestyle.
We should go the other way.
We should petition them to:
- Contact every doctor in the UK (ideally world wide, but let's be practical)
- Ask them for the HbA1c results of every diabetic on their records.
- Isolate the HbA1cs that fall at, or below, the NHS guidelines
- Ask them what they eat/what diet they follow/exercise, meds, etc.
- Divide the responses into low, middle and top end of HbA1c (but within target)
- See which diet wins.
There's a reason we bother with randomized controlled trials, you know
