Sure, well known, but each unit of dietary fat still requires no insulin regardless of insulin resistance.A high fat diet can cause insulin resistance Spiker, I thought you would know that as there's been a few low-carbing type 1's on the forum who have experienced this first-hand.
And that is why I said it is mildly not tolerated.Protein (in the absence of carbs) converts to glucose by around 50-60%.
Again I have already addressed this. The fact that we T1s need also insulin to suppress runaway glycogen release, and several much nastier phenomena, doesn't in any way detract from the fact that we are (also) carb intolerant.With or without carbs bg will rise if we didn't have insulin in our bodies, that is a fact no one can deny
Or to put it another way, on top of everything problematic about T1D, dietary carbs make it worse.The fact that we T1s need also insulin to suppress runaway glycogen release, and several much nastier phenomena, doesn't in any way detract from the fact that we are (also) carb intolerant.
Quite likely. I'm not talking about food intolerance. I'm talking about general intolerance.Perhaps it is the definition of 'food intolerance' itself that is the root of the heated debate here

http://www.joslin.org/news/dietary-fat-can-affect-insulin-requirements-in-type-1-diabetes.htmlBut lets not forget, insulin resistance leads to more insulin being injected.
There's a member on the forum who experienced this following a LCHF diet, they needed to inject 1 unit of insulin for every 1g of carbs, so if they were eating 30g of carbs a day that's 30 units of QA insulin, so one could say they we are intolerant of fat if eaten in excessive amounts
So are you saying someone with a peanut allergy is safe because their body will reject them ? If you were not on insulin, you would get uncontrolled, elevated BG levels after eating carbs. This means you have an intolerance to them unfortunately.
I thought that to insinuate that carbs were poison, like saying that diabetics have an intolerance to them, was against forum rules and yet here we have a forum moderator agreeing that diabetics have an intolerance to carbs, it complete and utter rubbish..
Ive never read so much rubbish in all my life.
Type 1's have a deficiency or a total lack of insulin nothing to do with an intolerance to carbs, there is a huge difference.
Type 2's generally have insulin resistance or an overworked pancreas not an intolerance to carbs, a huge difference. Lose the insulin resistance and most Type 2's are capable of happily eating carbs as most do.

However eating a very low carb diet does and will make one more sensitive to carbs, which is why I was careful to only low carb at 60g a day until I had lost sufficient weight to significantly reduce my insulin resistance so I am now able to eat most carbs in reasonable portions without them having any adverse effects on my bg levels.
Low carbing is NOT the only way despite what many people here seem to say.

The trouble is no one is right and no one is wrong, we should all just respect each others opinions and move on and let the result of the poll speak for itself.
The thread could go on for another 20 pages but I doubt minds will change
But lets not forget, insulin resistance leads to more insulin being injected.
