[QUOTE="VashtiB, post: 2365992, member: 511345"] As a fellow (?) carboholic my thoughts are don't go there that way lies madness. Look I really get it. I would love to be able to eat carbs again but this doesn't strike me as a solution for a number of reasons: 1 us type 2s already have insulin resistance- what will the effect of this medication be on that. We can test for blood sugar levels but not insulin resistance very easily. 2. Eating carbs will likely lead to eating more carbs- my view is that they are addictive at least for me- which presumably means more of this medication- a bad cycle in my view. 3 what are the long term effects of this medication? Given how many people are concerned about possible effects of a vaccine which has some real reason to take it how much more careful should we be for something that has no good reason for taking it. I'm sure there are more but the biggest one for me is I go low carb to avoid or delay the need for medication (insulin) why would I replace that with other medication. I also wouldn't want to go through keto flu more often than needed. [/QUOTE]
