[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 400830, member: 30851"] [quote="xyzzy. Relating it back to dieticians and specifically T2 then given that you agree that LC does work for newly diagnosed people then don't you think it should at least be presented to people as a formalised treatment method? That's my fundamental objection to those that are anti LC; they are denying a valid treatment method that has been adopted and is successfully practised in other countries. I think its good that the ADA seem to finally be waking up to fact that it works. It seems to be continuing the ADA trend of gradual acceptance of LC as a means of control over the past few years. For T1's the LC argument is subtly different and equally compelling but as I'm not T1 I wont comment further. Take care Steve[/quote] Exactly. How can anyone disagree? I have never been able to understand why anyone would want to deny people access to information which might help them As things stand many find that reducing starchy carb inake works when everything else has failed. That was certainly my experience. I have been lowcarbin for over 3 years and my HBA1C continues to improve .I too can now olerate more carbs . I am a "slim T2 and I hink i can often be more difficult to find a way of conrolling bgs. I was advised to eatMORE carbs on diagnosis with the inevitable outcome! The fact that some might find it restrictive and unsustainable should not be a reson for people not to atttempt it. How willwe ever learn abou the long term effects if everyone is to be discouraged from following it long term? I followed the GI system for many years before dignosis . It did not prevent diabetes developing bu may well have delayed it. is that a reason to dismiss a GI diet? [/QUOTE]
