[QUOTE="Debandez, post: 2149578, member: 460354"] I feel the same. I know little about DUK other than the booklets I received at dx were all from DUK. The website which I have been testing all month has every path leading to starchy carbs, even the path 'preventing type 2 diabetes' and 'low carb' info and recipes. Of course every page has a donate button. DUK and DCUK appear at opposite ends of the spectrum. I'm so mad I've tweeted a PM to DUK questioning their advice and received this: 'Hi Debra. The information we provide is based on the most up to date and credible evidence. We also take into account that everybody has different dietary and nutritional needs according to their diabetes type, medical conditions and lifestyle and would always recommend consulting a dietitian for specific advice. Our information comes from our clinical team in conjunction with senior clinical advisors. You can read our nutrition guidelines here: [URL]https://t.co/VzAOb6S6lL[/URL] You can also read our low-carb position statement here: [URL]https://t.co/HjwrA69hRc[/URL] We hope this answers your query, but do get back in touch if we can be of any further help' Of course I did get back in touch. I didnt spare the horses. My 'case' has now been escalated to a complaint case so looking forward to seeing where this takes me! [/QUOTE]
