[QUOTE="Jon Mors, post: 2535747, member: 558578"] Thanks very much for you replies. To be clear though, the NHS are NOT saying continue with your normal diet. They are saying 'include starchy carbs', i.e. do not do a low carb diet but include pasta, rice, potatoes. We have tried to give these but that led to his sugar level spiking. We will therefore go low carb as a family. Indeed, we have already started and everybody is happy with it. We already eat lots of vegetables and meat so cutting out the carbs hasn't been that noticeable. My son is definitely getting enough calories, vitamins etc. My question was not about the diet, but whether the NHS has any power over us regarding the diet, i.e. somehow forcing us to change his diet against our will. Thanks [/QUOTE]
