Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="AtkinsMo" data-source="post: 1094727" data-attributes="member: 104933">All of the most recent research is coming out strongly in favour of Low Carb High Fat.  The problem is that dieticians are still being taught the official guidelines, doctors get very little nutrition tuition at all and the focus of their training is managing medications, when it comes to diabetes.  The perceived problems are that, whilst the 'short term markers', HbA1c, inflammation, trigs, HDL etc all improve, without a doubt, the cautious, who have been taught and fully accept the Diet /Heart Health Hypothesis (now totally discredited) will say that 'long term, we do not know the health implications'.Well my take on that is that they do know the long term health implications of out of control blood sugars, spiralling, ever increasing doses of medications etc etc.I am very hopeful that now Dr David Unwin has been given this NHS award, somebody will be critically evaluating his work and will look at it with a fresh perspective.  We can but hope!</blockquote>
