[QUOTE="Bluenosesol, post: 181609, member: 20149"] Hi Ken, I use the Newsnow portal to search daily for the latest diabetes related news items from around the world. The 6 years story was repeated by many many sources, but I could not read the entire source papers as they were all subject to subscription so I had to go with the story as relayed by the media. Ka mon, my take isnt low carb or die as it is not for me to tell anyone how to achieve safe bg's, rather that safe bg's should be our goals where achievable and if a piece of research appears to confirm that many of us are indeed in the safety zone, then that is something to utilise to raise our spirits and our optimism. As for statictics, I have a grandson with a catastrophic disability caused by a rare condition known as CHARGE Syndrome. The UK incidence is 1 in 50,000 !!! I wouldnt suggest for one minute that because we were blessed with a beautiful child with massive lifelong challenges that I should therefore deny myself from taking solace in statistics which can provide me with the optimisim I need to live happily with my condition. All the Best - Steve [/QUOTE]
