Message: <blockquote data-quote="ratherbegliding" data-source="post: 2117719" data-attributes="member: 98612">Hi everyone,I've been a T1D for 30 years now but only discovered the joys of a keto diet 3 years ago.I know everyone is different, but for me it's like the difference between night and day - I started seeing the positive benefits within 12 hours of going keto.My personal experience has been that I have much fewer hypos, and when I do go low it's all very gentle and easily remedied - a big change to where I was 20 years ago!These days I am also very fortunate to hold a recreational/sport pilots licence (which is a very limited form of licence designed for people with 'medical issues'). I find the restrictions, well, too restrictive and I'm trying to get my licence upgraded to a full Private Pilots Licence. However, dealing with the medical standards people is proving somewhat challenging.So my question to the collective knowledge-base is this:Does anyone know of any medical studies which investigate the reduced severity of hypoglycemic events among T1's for those following a keto/LHCF diet?Any assistance would be much appreciated.Many thanks,RBG</blockquote>
