Diabetes UK agm local group

I went to my local group. It was a agm neet, deciding who to have speakers next year.
Only a hand full of people was there. I was the only person who low carb. Everyone else followed the guidelines and insist that carbs are needed for energy, It was so frustating
Informed by someone who has just had his metformin increased. That Alc gives whole picture of how levels are over time and testing only gives a snap shot.
My comment was, by testing pre and post prandial gives better control over a period of time, giving a much better HbA1c.
I'm going to next meet for the dietician speaker, no doubt will give out the usual advice.
Low carb has not reached the so called leafing experts on the Wirral. Grrrr

One person did say they were going to try it. I gave a few names out, like Unwin and Bernstein and how successful for many people low carbing. I mentioned Wirral has the highest rate of amputations, It did not click with them which is a shame.

They said, he is too far away to invite him as a speaker. That's a shame as Dr Unwin would give a balance view.
The group seem to just have the same speakers, who give out the same old same old. No one it seems willing to challange the advice. I said " the whole point of diabetes, is the pancreas cannot produce insulin adequately to break down carbs, hence high glucose levels. Why eat carbs. I did go on to say, by low carbing it gives the pancreas a rest, preserving beta cells and helps with insulin sensitivity for T2 diabetes. If continuing eating carbs eventually end up on insulin and that T2 diabetes does not need to be progressive.
Still have some resistance from the group. Even when someone said, they folliwed all the advice which was given, his diabetic team did not believe him and found it upsetting, and thinks what's the point. It was only me who was able to address the issue. I will attend to the next meet which is the dietician speaker, because it will benefit me. I have not seen my diabetetic nurses because they don't agree with low carbing and that was 4 years ago.
