[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1365239, member: 21149"] Thanks. I've listed below my original email to them. Yes the focus was more general than just diabetes but I did mention diabetes. Bearing in mind that the number of diabetics is rising rapidly and there must be a large number with insulin resistance and hence at risk you could say many/most people might see a BS change with high carbs? Quote: [I]I remain horrified that NHS Choices continues to ignore the role of carbohydrates in the diet.
