Have you had any contact with DUK about your results. They still seem to think there is no long term data about the safety of low carb. Even though they KNOW that their recommended diet results in diabetes being progressive.
Occasionally they publish letters asking about low carb - only to shoot them down.

Letter from T1:
I'm surprised low carb diets aren't recommended .... This is a simple seemingly healthy solution & it works for me.
Editor replies:
It's brilliant that you're feeling better
DUK realise that some T1s reduce the amount of carbs in their diet
a low carb diet is not recommended for T1s because there is not enough evidence about its effectiveness on longer-term health.
Also .... could impact on cardiovascular & kidney health ...
