I've been on LCHF for about 3 months now and I have learnt a lot, especially from this forum. However, I found it a little difficult to find some info because there is so much of it, so I wonder if anyone would support the idea of lists we could vote for to produce "top-ten" categories in a...

I am type 2 diabetic controlled with metformin, HBA1c=41. Unfortunately, I was in control of my weight at 70kg, but suddenly found it had crept up to 84.5kg by not watching what I was eating and enjoying lots of fruit and bread (to which I am particularly susceptible). I have therefore been on...

Hi everyone, I've been a type 1 diabetic for 40 years (first diagnosed in 1976). During that time I have faithfully followed the NHS guidlines applicable at various times but, always found my daily type 1 diabetes management very difficult to control my HbA1c at the required levels. Over the...
