[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2138660, member: 323454"] Hi [USER=378044]@sugarshy[/USER], This might be an artifact of the Accord trial. On this trial, they put people with diabetes on intensive treatment attempting very tight blood sugar control by upping medication (more insulin, more sulfonylureas -- probably leading to more swings and more hypos). The outcome was that people did worse on intensive treatment. Consequently, this was interpreted as diabetics doing worse on tight blood sugar control and communicated to HCPs. However, I believe normal blood sugars achieved on lchf/keto are very different from those achieved by intensifying medication. So, in my mind nothing to worry about. By the way, congrats on your HbA1c -- great result and well done. [/QUOTE]
