I was diagnosed T2 in November. Several years ago I had a blood test (can't remember what for now) and mention was made of the results showing some problem but nothing else said. I once asked my GP about it, when on a visit, and he said something about enzymes but nothing to worry about. He then asked me if I drank alcohol, which I don't. So I wonder if this was down to carbs. I asked for copies of tests last week so I'll have a look tomorrow to see what the exact information was.It's so heartening to read all your encouraging comments THANK YOU
Update; some of you will remember the research originally on 18 patients - well now there are 36 !! showing very similar results with average weight loss of just under 9.5 kg and very significant drop in HbA1c
A NEW ANGLE: What has got my interest now is the very surprising improvements in liver function which occur rapidly if on a low carb diet So much so from them I can predict who has lost weight and who hasn't before the person steps into the surgery. I wonder if too many folk link abnormal liver function with alcohol when carbs are to blame. I know I often made that mistake before I 'saw the light' Thoughts please
