[QUOTE="dbr10, post: 1487467, member: 174581"] He originally trained as an engineer. His wife is a doctor, so he used her to obtain one of the first meters. His backround meant that he knew how to study his BG response to different foods and worked out a way to dose himself which basically tries to copy the way the body does it naturally - when it works. For T1 and T2 he recommends LC. It's not LCHF but rather he recommends reducing carbs and filling up on protein if you're hungry. The aim should be to do EVERYTHING possible, through diet and medication to achieve non-diabetic BG levels. For T2 he basically recommends reducing carbs and using metformin if you cannot reduce BG levels by diet alone. For T1s, he suggests low carb and smaller doses of insulin; and, therefore, less chance of making a mistake. Insulin also causes people to gain weight, increases insulin resistance, which then requires more insulin. Others will add or correct anything I missed out. [/QUOTE]
