[QUOTE="fawbs, post: 2565946, member: 564263"] And here in lies the problem. Quite simply being type1 means you can't eat what other kids eat. I understand your point but when tou are trying to balance overall health vs 'fitting in' health always comes first. Low carb or carb restrictive diets have been proven rime and rime again to limit issues and improve overall health in diabetics child or not. I suggest watching the documentary before commenting :). It follows several families of young children who were initially doing as you say and letting their kid eat anything to 'fit in' and they became very poorly as a consequence. The reduced carb diet dis not affect them in any way other than to allow them to reduce overall insulin intake and increase blood stability. [/QUOTE]
