Since my battle started some fifteen or so years ago, I have been told numerous times by every dietician, dsn, GP and specialist that I need a certain amount of carbs/glucose to live.Well, do you know what?I don't.I use a ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting to get my health on track.I would still be in a state if I had listened to these experts.They said to me that a ketogenic lifestyle would be bad for me.It has solved all my health problems. I don't have hypos no more. My body is happier and healthier on the balance of foods I have.Maybe you need some thinking outside the box about your conditions and get some really good lifestyle advice in how to cope with what is happening to you.Best wishes</blockquote>
