[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1833985, member: 245335"] I was vaguely aware of some of the points raised, very interesting though. When I cut my carbs to about 40 gms I was warned that I would be missing out on fibre but I never experienced any problems. Obviously the amount of cauliflower, brocolli, courgette, mushroom, tomato, peppers, celery, onion, leeks and the occasional apple more than makes up for that loss of so called essential fibre in things like bread and rice. edit: just remembered, I couldn't tolerate "not going" for 2 days never mind 6 days without reaching for my favourite remedy, used only occasionally, vit C powder or Berocca (more than the recommended 1 a day). Another edit: another thought. I know what he means about the affects of sweeteners. I've heard people talk about the effects of sugar free Haribo ***** bears. More effective than anything the GP will give you. [/QUOTE]
