[QUOTE="janeecee, post: 414438, member: 45332"] The trouble is that there are a lot of opinions, fad diets and pseudoscience online and it's very difficult to sort out what is good information and what is misinformation. Not only that, different people are diagnosed at different stages and have different contributory factors, so there is no one solution that will work exactly the same for everyone. There has been so much hype around the Newcastle Diet but ultimately it's an extreme weight loss diet and will only help those who have a lot of weight to lose and whose excess weight has contributed to their problem and who have been diagnosed a relatively short time. There is a lot of information on it and some people choose to follow it with some success, and of course it won't work for everyone. I do find there is some hostility at times when someone expresses opinions or experiences with dietary regimes that are not the same someone else's and I have found option rather ugly at times, with people being accused of being "not diabetic" because the eat more carbs than someone else, and quite honestly, it puts me right off. We all have to find out what works for us, not what works for someone else. I have only been trying to work out how to control my prediabetes/impaired glucose tolerance for less than three months and I find it a very stressful and difficult situation to understand. Some dietary approaches haven't suited me, to the point of feeling weak and ill, and I'm getting close to being underweight just trying to keep the numbers down, so I find all the hostility and partisan attitudes to this or that diet a bit off putting when I'm only trying to figure out how to help myself by being able to find relevant information.
