Frowned at by Nurse when I mentioned LCHF

We were all maybe more hirsute in the paleo days....

You mean they weren't "beach ready"??

Is it not that fat helps the carbs to be absorbed at a slower rate?

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply.

No no it's okay, I completely understand why people may feel some bitterness towards GPs/doctors.

I agree, it would be interesting to read up more on LCHF and read about the success stories. I'm sorry if I came across as not accepting of it or damning it, I'm not like that at all. As I mentioned, I'm open to new ideas, and certainly shall look at the link you have shared
I guess I was just sharing my limited views, but I know that I can learn so much more from those actually experiencing diabetes on a daily basis. So I thank you once more. Forgive me if I have angered or hurt you in any way.

Kind Regards,

Mahesh

Hi, a great book to read on the subject is Dr Jason Fung's 'The Obesity Code' which cites lots of examples of how bad science has been passed down over the last few decades and is now 'known fact'

Good luck with your research

Just reviving this thread to add another video on the subject of the Coronary Artery Calcium test - another Ivor Cummins interview with Dr Bruce Brundage who was involved with the test from the beginning. He gives a fascinating insight into how commerce/lobbying drives medical research and the long delay between research to medical advances becoming maintstream.
