[QUOTE="Key_master_, post: 1564642, member: 381523"] I wasn't on about insulins Tim, I was on about the other medications given when as type ones or type twos develope complications or cardiovascular problems that so many diabetics develope wether type 1 or 2 in later life due to being a diabetic and at higher risk. My info regarding that comes from dr Bernstein and if his information is correct which I believe it to be then this and the statins and other heart medication can be avoided. The only thing I mentioned regarding insulin was the dangerously high doses some people including myself were on whilst following the advised diets of carbs and low fat by our healthcare professionals. The overall point was that we are being fed the wrong information regarding diet in the first place. All watching what we eat, low fat balanced carbs, whole grains, fresh fruit, add the massive insulin doses these foods need because of spikes caused, then coming into complications later on in life mostly cardiovascular and dieing early. I would like to apologise for my last comment as that was a little insensitive and not at all one I'd usually make. I had a great experience with my libre but it is only really to show you patterns and not a warning or life saving device, therefore only good till you learn what works and doesn't. [/QUOTE]
