Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zhnyaka" data-source="post: 2573602" data-attributes="member: 554712">historical background:Diets which involved cutting back sharply on carbohydrates and then increasing theproteins or fats to compensate, achieved nothing – or, worse, caused a higher rate of acidosis and death in coma because of their fat content. The answer was to continue to cut back on carbohydrates, but to cut back one everything else, too, so that the diabetic’s total calorie intake was reduced.... the choice came to this: death by diabetes or death by what was often called “inanition.”it doesn't sound very attractive.I don't know how appropriate it is to refer to personal experience, but this almost cost me my life </blockquote>
