[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 677649, member: 41816"] [USER=92896]@Syd[/USER] I'm really pleased to hear you have had such a great experience with the NHS diet and support. It's a rarity around here, so it's good to have that aired. One thing though - that tv show 'fat v sugar' contained a serious piece of mis-information that skewed the result. It is well known (to anyone who does a reasonable amount of LCHF research) that following a period of low carbing, the pancreas is slow to respond to sugar intake. It adjusts within a week of returning to 'normal' carb intake, returning blood glucose and insulin response to previous levels, and has no long term effects. So that twin who had raised sugar levels following their sugar v LC eating? His blood glucose response would have returned to normal in a few days. What a pity the programme didn't do its research properly, and rushed their end tests, presumably for dramatic effect. And what a pity that this particular piece of mis-information was publicised on popular tv. It keeps cropping up on this forum too, as a kind of urban myth. [/QUOTE]
