[QUOTE="Protea, post: 892266, member: 132554"] Fortunately I don't live in Britain and my local GP agrees with my not so stringent LCHF diet. 10 years when on holiday in the UK in July (our Winter your Summer) our GP daughter discovered my T2 diabetes. Great !! She said I should I should not have medication but try diet. The diet was that universally used in the UK. "good" carbos, fruit and very low fat. On getting home I looked into diet on the internet as this diet was not at all effective. Got a meter and strips. Found references on the internet to diabetes some of which said that high carbo was to blame. I was not overweight at that time so weight loss was not needed. Am now slightly underweight. Age now 79. Was cautious about fat until recently whenl I read the work of University of Cape Town's Professor Noakes. Now I have as much butter and olive oil as I like and my morning readings are good except when I go off the rails. Don't blame your local doctors. They are only following the NHS orders. Might be in trouble if they don't. Is the NHS ignorant of the latest trends? Keep on with pushing LCHF. I'm still alive after 12 years on LCHF so it worked for me. May the force be with you !!
