[QUOTE="smidge, post: 485415, member: 29301"] Brian, I'm afraid it's carbs that cause problems to all diabetics by raising BG. Of course, Type 1s can effectively medicate against that which is what many choose to do. However, very few manage to maintain safe BGs with that choice unfortunately. I think the figure is something like 95% of Type 1s fail to keep Hba1c at 6.5 or below - I'm sure someone will correct that if I'm wrong - not very good at remembering numbers. My non-diabetic partner started low-carving a year ago as his weight had gradually increased over the years to put him in the obese category. He has lost 3 and a half stone in the year.
