[QUOTE="JohnyT2, post: 2121223, member: 512587"] Low Carb High Fat is an alternate route that body uses when it doesnt have readily available simple form of energy. Thus for those who are unable to process the available glucose, they obviously need to cut down the intake of glucose producing component in diet, that is carbs and proteins to certain extend, now if both of them are absent then body relies on using body fats for energy. Hence we see there is good results for people with Diabetes using LCHF diet. But one need to understand that this is just an alternate method that body developed for the time of crisis majorly and not for normal usage. We also need to understand, that our body need to do a lot of processing to in order to first absorb fat from food. As you would have seen if you put a drop of oil in water it doesnt mix similarly the fat from food doesnt mix directly in the water available in intestine for simple absorption, thus a complex process has to be followed to absorb the fats. Thats why if you eat a fat heavy food you would feel heavies in stomach for long time as it takes time to absorb. Similarly how its been provided as energy to body is again a complex process as compared to glucose transfer and consumption. Now with that in hand, i think approach to manage or go towards remission should be by allowing normal body energy processing methodology. Reduction of carb is just one aspect. The other aspect is what can we do so that the glucose that is in the body gets consumed and our body becomes efficient to utilize the excess glucose. Important thing to consider is that one gets into state of diabetes type 2 because of excess of glucose in blood that happened because we use to consumed High Carb and Low Fat, which somehow looks similar to what we are now doing with LCHF, its just instead of Carbs this time FAT is high and we are thinking we are found the solution. Well it does work for now in given situation, but at the same time we should also think arent we now making problem for second system. What if now like Carb if Fat starts becoming excess we will have something like of Diabetes but thats based out of Fat. So we not only closed the gates for Carb, with new issue we will be closing the energy gates for Fat too... These are just my thoughts, I am just trying to see where things are headed or could. I might be 100% wrong, but just sharing the concerns so that we can have healthy discussions. [/QUOTE]
