[QUOTE="Scandichic, post: 761882, member: 94210"] Carbs = sugar Carb is turned into sugar in your stomach then released into your blood stream. So eating carbs raises your bs. As bs is already too high if you are diabetic then eating 150g of carbs a day is utter madness. You just have to read the number of people who have managed to reduce their meds and insulin by switching to low carb. I think that this is the point Zand is trying to make. I have avoided insulin and reduced my meds by a two thirds by low carbing. HCP are obliged to support the healthy plate thinking so don't generally recommend low carbing because it does against the current thinking. So unless people stumble accross low carbing then they follow the healthy plate. There are pages and pages on this forum about the negative effect that this has had. [/QUOTE]
