[QUOTE="Lord Midas, post: 1540021, member: 330044"] I personally think that no diabetic should take carbs. The reason a diabetic needs to take insulin is due to a rise in blood sugar. The rise in bs comes primarily from carbs, and to a small degree excess protein. Why we diabetics are encouraged to eat the very thing that makes us sick, and thus take meds, is a staggering betrayal of trust by the medical authorities. And so we take matters into our own hands [emoji6] I have found that reducing my carbs to as little as I possibly can (without counting, and this includes green veggies), eating a high fat diet (lots of butter, cheese and fatty meats) and moderate protein (just what's in the above) i have a much better control of my bs. The Keto diet, and the resulting Keto Adaption, works wonders for T2 (though monitoring bs levels is very important). But for T1 you must be diligent. If you are in ketosis and the ketone levels go high as well as high bs, then that can be dangerous. But if monitored well then there is no reason a T1 cannot also go into ketosis. This results in amazing bs control, fat loss, other metabolic issues go away, reduction in med requirements for T1, reversal of T2. The list of issues being in nutritional ketosis can remedy is long and impressive. I am desperately trying to stay in ketosis, though for me my main challenge is the Dawn Phenomenon which requires insulin (and insulin is the very hormone that stores body fat and prevents the release of fat from cells). I do believe it will take longer than normal peeps and those with T2, but I'll get there [emoji5] [/QUOTE]
