[QUOTE="SamJB, post: 432596, member: 45322"] Hi everyone, As many of you who have read my posts may know, I'm a T1 low carber. It's worked wonders for me and is the only method that has got my HbA1c below 6.5% and I know it works for many people here too. On a voluntary basis, I'm also a patient representative on the steering committee for the National Diabetes Audit, which collects the results of UK diabetics' check-ups throughout the year. The results make depressing reading, you can see the 2010-2011 results here: [url=https://catalogue.ic.nhs.uk/publications/clinical/diabetes/nati-diab-audi-10-11/nati-diab-audi-10-11-care-proc-rep-V4.pdf]https://catalogue.ic.nhs.uk/publication ... rep-V4.pdf[/url] In summary, only about 7% of T1 are hitting the 6.5% HbA1c target and only 25% of T2s. It's not the business of the National Diabetes Audit to make recommendations on diets, it's purpose is to audit UK diabetes care. I care a lot about the poor results, however, and I'd like Diabetes UK to invest more into the research of low carbing and recommend it to people who want to get a good HbA1c, but can't on currently-recommended diets. In, other words, I don't want it to be THE recommended diet, but I want it to be an option. In a way, I'm jumping on the back of the recent news about DUK's investment into the Newcastle Diet. I've made contact with the people at DUK who decide on such things and I want to collect as many research papers as I can on low carbing for T1s and T2s, good or bad. A previous poster pointed me towards a paper for T1s ([url=http://www.dmsjournal.com/content/pdf/1758-5996-4-23.pdf]http://www.dmsjournal.com/content/pdf/1 ... 6-4-23.pdf[/url]) does anyone know of any for T2s?
