[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2021198, member: 196898"] If you are questioning if eggs are safe, then recent meta studies have shown that whereas we were told to avoid eggs because of cholesterol fears, that now there is (a) no direct association between dietary cholesterol in eggs or prawns and the blood cholesterol measured by the doc, and (b) as a result eggs also do not raise the blood cholesterol. They are a good and healthy source of protein. The salmonella scare of a few years back has gone away. My experience with gliclazide shows it to be a gentle but powerful diabetic drug, and I found it gave me some hypos when I went low carb a few years ago. I dropped my dose from 4x80 mg a day to 1x 40 mg a day, and dropped my Hba1c from 99 down to 42 last year. I am now on Metformin only this year but having problems with hospital food, so not in a position to really confirm if I will still need to use Glic. I intend to keep it stopped until I have returned home and started up my LC diet again. Keep the tester handy. [/QUOTE]
