[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 117616, member: 8110"] I have emailed one of the researchers, because I think the reporting of this has skewed the meaning. I can see no reason at all why a low HbA1c of itself should be harmful: diabetic or not. We don't see loads of non-diabetics dropping like flies because of their low HbA1cs. What I do see as dangerous is the use of large doses of a variety of toxic drugs to achieve thal low Result. As far as I can make sense of this, diet controlled diabetes, isn't going to be a problem. I must declare an interest here. I've felt for ages that the attitude of "eat what you like and cover it with medication", is a potentially dangerous thing to do. I think medical advice will have to go back to where it was before such a huge range of anti-diabetic medicine was available. i.e.controlling diet. There's too much of a high price to pay for "The easy way" Hana [/QUOTE]
