[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1887830, member: 345386"] When you state you "can't really go above 20g carbs if I want to maintain good blood sugar control without injecting insulin", do you mean without insulin or any other diabetes medication, or do you mean something else, because I don't see it as a binary thing. I don't care for medication if I can avoid it, but when it comes to managing T2 diabetes, there are allegedly over 400 medication options available, before insulin is required, if a standard medication escalation ladder is used. I don't have a link to studies stating those number of variations. It was a statement made by a senior Consultant Endo during a presentation. For the avoidance of doubt, as examples, Metforming is one option, and further could be Metformin plus one of the Flozin class or whatever, so variations, rather than 400 individual, stand alone drugs.
