[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 292207, member: 21149"] Hi Bellx15. I think the NHS position on carbs baffles most of us. It is obviouly plain stupid and dangerous but it makes you realise how much 'group-think' influences many in the medical profession. The food lobby is always lurking in the background throwing in mis-information. There are many issues with the way GPs work i.e. they prescribe rather than measure and listen hence there isn't a closed feedback loop that you need when applying any management process. My db GP said she has 500 db patients (which is a ridiculous number) and when I challenged my diagnosis and diet etc she claimed with that number of patients she was the expert. Did she listen to my feedback ref diet? No, of course not so even with that number of patients she wasn't learning. Do GPs have any time to read research papers, look at this forum etc? Of course not so the treadmill continues churning out the same old dated nonsense. Sadly I see nothing that can stop this broken process and all we can do is carry out our own research and take control. [/QUOTE]
