Type 1 ketogenic blog from a GP

"a blog about testing the limits of diabetes. Lemming Test-Pilot is the alter ego of a medical doctor who themselves have type 1 diabetes."

the blog is about the T1 blogger doing 12 half marathons in... 12 months

It's a fascinating read!!!

That's an inspiring read...enough to make me take up running? probably not.. but great anyway.

Hi @notafanofsugar . . .

I've looked at this site and it's very interesting . . . nice that the Keto diet for T1 gets some positive press . . .

Can I ask where the quote in your Post is taken from?

I've looked on the site for this quote
"a blog about testing the limits of diabetes. Lemming Test-Pilot is the alter ego of a medical doctor who themselves have type 1 diabetes."
but I cannot find it anywhere . . .

I'm currently trying to persuade my new and sceptical GP that my dietary strategy for my T1 is reasonable. I'm looking for ammunition and a blog from a GP with T1 that uses the Keto diet would be perfect! But I can't find any statement on the site currently that suggests he or she is a Doctor . . . can you give me a hint where this quote came from?

Thanks & Regards
Antony

A few other doctors with Type 1 who eat LCHF/keto:

Dr Troy Stapleton (on Youtube) - from memory he's a radiologist

Dr Keith Runyan (on Youtube) - nephrologist

Dr. Carrie Diulus - orthopaedic surgeon

And of course, the grand-daddy of them all, Dr Richard K. Bernstein (see his Diabetes University on Youtube).

You might also want to dig out Ian Lake too, a T1D GP who LCHFs and is strongly in favour of LCHF for T1 and T2. One of his presentations is here: https://www.phcuk.org/wp-content/up...es-From-Both-Sides-Of-The-Consulting-Desk.pdf

He has spoken at many of the professional healthcare forums. I've had a few interesting conversations with him.

Hah!

Thank you Beccy!

When I click on the link I don't see the text immediately, and I don't get the scrollbars to hint that there is text below. I followed the instructions and immediately clicked on 'Please read this first' and never got back to that first page. That'll teach me to investigate more deeply before posting! Thanks to those who made suggestions.
