These medical experts seem to know little about Diabetes. I have been a T2 for 40 years and have learned much by research and what is happening.to my own body. Firstly, it is a fact that a low carb diet will bring down your BGs. I bekieve the medics think you will make up for the loss of carbs by overeating of fats. This need not happen as the body adjusts after a while and as long as the diet is balanced you can remain healthy.
Testing is necessary as bringing down the readings could result in a hypo. I follow my diet and test once a day before going to bed.There seems to be no loss of energy.At the age of 87 I play golf three times a week and walk round the course.
Weight control is necessary and the diet recommended would probably result in weight gain.
Having said all this I know little about T1s or T2s on Insulin.
