[QUOTE="LittleWolf, post: 405520, member: 66893"] Not fair >_> But isn't there a lot of evidence to suggest that eating high carb and injecting lots of insulin isn't good for you because it's a growth factor hormone? Can you not induce resistance to injected insulin? It accelerates ageing and disrupts the balance of other hormones in the body. I know my PCOS is caused by the action of high insulin levels on the ovaries causing them to produce testosterone and such. It just seems a little crazy for a T1 (like my much lies partner) to believe it is cool to eat as much junk as they like as long as they cover it with insulin. I don't know if I'm speaking out of place because you T1s (though it is being suggested I might be slow onset T1 :/) have enough to worry about without someone telling you what to eat. It seems the attitude is to carry on as normally as possible whereas with T2 your whole diet goes out the window. Why are T2s not just put on insulin immediately and told eat whatever? My guess is they already have high insulin levels and too much insulin isn't good for you besides the risk of Hypnos But I don't see a DN or anything. I don't know as much about this as you guys I suppose.
