[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2188030, member: 365308"] I agree with the way Doctor Unwin's approach e.g. he asks patients if they want to try a low carb method or take medications knowing that these medications are treating symptoms, have side effects and tend to beome less effective over time. A food solution for a food problem is logical but it will always be hard to prove if the gold standard of research is RCTs which you obviously cannot do with real people eating real food. There is a similar problem with the obesity research where most of the world is clinging onto the paradigm of obesity being caused by energy imbalance. Gary Taubes set up a research company to try and prove/disprove this hypothesis but hasn't managed to do so yet. The next interesting thing to see will be the 2020 US FDA guidelines to see if there's been any shift in those following the valiant campaigning that has gone on to ensure that the guidelines are backed by more than just epidimology.
