Before we had any meds for diabetes, metformin, insulin or any kind, it was diet controlled.

I was so surprised some years ago when a diabetic friend of mine came to visit. He was told by his DSN to eat a lot of bread! Now why should he do that? I never got an answer. He is t2 and on huge doses of insulin. While staying with us his bg fell and he could reduce the insulin substantially. I think he had been told to eat mostly carbs. He weighs above 100 kilo, is still gaining weight and have had two major heart attacks since.
I could strangle his DSN.
