I wanted to say "What kind of advice is this?" because it's so against what most people here recommend...
Who is this guy? And could his advice really work for diabetics??
Or is this just the outdated fat fearing advice plus the recent push to encourage everyone to be vegetarian?
Has anyone here had success at reversing their diabetes by avoiding fats and by eating "healthy" carbs?
I'm only curious personally as I seem to be a "hyper responder" when it comes to higher cholesterol on a low carb diet (and I know I have some sdLDL despite having good HDL and Trigs. Could be residual from when I was still eating a lot more carbs just over 8 months ago. Maybe it takes more than a year to get rid of sdLDL on a stricter low carb diet than what I have been doing.... But I sometimes question whether eating higher fat is really the right thing to do if I am one of those with higher cholesterol when not everyone on a low carb diet ends up that way...)
