    People wont listen - rant

    Not giving "advice" - just pointing to an increasingly burgeoning body of evidence that is there for those who are interested enough to follow it up. If you agree with the evidence, fine - if you don't, also fine, so long as you have actively considered and analysed what is being put forward...

    Miracles do happen ...

    Very well done.....but do you think it was the reduction in insulin or being more careful with your diet (or both?) - main thing is, you've shown it can be done! Result!

    People wont listen - rant

    Hi S648 - dont let 'em grind you down! Have you seen this week's "New Scientist"?

    Cannot cut off carbs

    I don't recall mentioning any "rules" - and as far as being helpful,and supportive goes, if it makes one person stop and think about what they are doing to themselves, yes I do. It is not to "keep pricking yourself for no apparent reason" - is to know the effect that certain foods have on your...

    Low GI - What Effect on BG?

    Are you sure? The "scientific" approach would be to test after the whole meal, rather than trying to test each of its components individually......for example, a lot of people find that eating carbs with a lot of fat gives much lower readings than just the same amount of carbs on its own. The...
