[QUOTE="seadragon, post: 1365191, member: 195124"] At least you got a reply - they never answered me when I complained about the Eatwell plate. They are stupid - if there is no correlation between carbs and blood glucose then type 1 diabetics don't need to take insulin to cope with carbs as it wont affect their blood glucose levels. Not sure many type 1's would agree with that, nor type 2s nor anyone with a bit of sense. Note the wording also that there was no evidence from the trials they considered. Hmm perhaps there are trials they didn't consider. i once went to the effort of looking at every single study the PHE use to sustain their nonsense and unsurprisingly not one study could I find that compared the efficacy of a low carb high fat diet (much less a proper ketogenic diet) with the standard diet or with low calorie or high carb. No they used differing amounts of carbs sometimes but nearly always compared to the standard diet so a higher fibre diet compares well to the standard diet which is carby and fatty. But no comparison of their advised diet to a low carb high fat one. If you don't do the studies apparently you don't have to report on them. Clever eh? [/QUOTE]
