[QUOTE="Fraddycat, post: 317001, member: 46145"] well see that's what they tell you in the Health Care profession, but many of us believe they have got this wrong. A lot of people on this forum have a LCHF diet and have very effectively reduced their weight, their BG and their blood pressure, me included. It is a lifetime commitment though, if I went back to eating carbs like flour, bread, pasta, rice and potatoes I would increase my risk of diabetes complications, probably put on weight and raise my blood pressure again. The theory is if you reduce your carbohydrate intake, which your body quickly converts to sugar, then you have to replace that with protein and fat otherwise you starve :). Have a look at this website and I recommend you read 'Gary Taubes - Why we get fat' [url=http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf]http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf[/url] [/QUOTE]
