Message: <blockquote data-quote="Winnie53" data-source="post: 1087291" data-attributes="member: 160246">I've only been on the low carb high fat (LCHF) diet for a year. During that time I've done a lot of reading trying to find the magic combination of diet and exercise that works best for my type 2 diabetes. I want to briefly introduce two other things to consider...1) My journey began with the book, Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution, 4th Edition (2011) by Richard Bernstein M.D. Over four chapters he details the diet he created and refined more than three decades ago for his type 1 and type 2 patients. An important point that he makes is that everyone responds uniquely to the foods they eat, so it's important to test to determine how each food affects your glucose levels.2) Throughout the low carb literature, I've seen it stated that the LCHF diet worsens health markers in some people, which validates that there is no one diet that works for everyone and that includes people with diabetes. Dr. Mercola has been discussing this on his website since 2002 and since that time has been refining three different "nutritional types". To learn more, start here - (it includes a free nutrition typing assessment)...<a href="http://products.mercola.com/nutritional-typing/?x_cid=youtube" target="_blank">http://products.mercola.com/nutritional-typing/?x_cid=youtube</a>This is not information that I've explored yet, but I wanted to link to it so those of you who have more time than I do right now can take a look at it.</blockquote>
