[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 299858"] Hi xyzzy, Thank you for your rational response. Nowhere in my posts on the subject have I said that ketogenic diets are not suitable for diabetics. What I have highlighted is that for children with epilepsy it is a more specialised field needing the services of a neurologist prior to adherence, medical input during and after the diet and a dietitian to plan the menus. This specialist care is not something that an average diabetic will need. The link to the charity, [url=http://www.thedaisygarland.org.uk/epilepsy-and-the-ketogenic-diet]http://www.thedaisygarland.org.uk/epile ... genic-diet[/url] is where the words that you have highlighted exist. I am sure if I emailed them they would be able to furnish this as this charity is encouraging ketogenic diets. The cautions would be valid surely? The founders of the charity started this up after losing their daughter to epilepsy. They fund the specialist dietary help needed with the ketogenic diet as the NHS does not pay for this [/QUOTE]
