[QUOTE="IanD, post: 315834, member: 6186"] Something else - DUK are forever trying to prove that the jury is still out & until THEY have carried out controlled trials studying T2 diabetics for 30 years they can't consider recommending such a diet. Meanwhile they dish out the failed diet. This research was specifically intended to assess the Atkins diet, it seems looking for evidence to substantiate POTENTIAL problems. They did not find any, & the impression I get is that DUK/NHS consider it unethical to even field test a low carb/high fat diet because they KNOW it is unhealthy. The fact that they KNOW their high carb/low fat diet causes progression seems to escape them. From the quoted comment: [/QUOTE]
