[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 265753, member: 30851"] Totally agree with you xyzzy. Basically we are all agreed on the seesntials - the only disagreements are about semantics. I totally agree with borofergie about he glycaemic load. This is what I do and I feel that the NHS would find this approach less frightening that low or reduced carbing pure and simple. Many in the NHS are aware that reducing carbs works but are effecively "gaged " by the sysem and only whisper it ino the ears of he select few. It is probaly more acceptable to use it as a means of weigh loss. I can't see the NHS coming ou and recommending low carbing anytime soon It will creep in gradually - probably in much the same way as GI has now become respectable and mainstream At least that is an improvement on highcarb low -fat, Perhaps small seps, having it menioned as an alternaive some diabetiscs use etc and of course providing information here are the best we can hope for in the short erm.. Sweden had very advanced views abou educaion oo which many here would like o have seen adope but i never happened . There have been various health initiatives in the EEC which could/should have been adoped here but weren't. Obviously condiions/demographics in Sweden make it useful as a universal guinea pig or model Utopia. I jst wish the NHS would stop recommending any diet. Inform the paient of all he different methods others use to control thei r diabees and offer them assisance o find their own way. [/QUOTE]
