[QUOTE="paulinelyon, post: 1024748, member: 251024"] When I attend the diabetic clinic I get to see a dietitian, on the last occasion I asked her about the low carb diet,and she was dead against it. They give the same diet information to everyone. I do need to lose weight, and as I have ME/chronic fatigue, I do not have the energy to exercise, so I have decided to go the low carbs or no carbs route. My opinion is that the human body is so complex and some of us are suffering other health issues which have an impact upon our weight,I also have a thyroid problem which increases weight gain, so how can this one diet suit absolutely everyone. I have been to health talks from young nutrition students who are enthusiastic about healthy lifestyles and their knowledge and information is the complete opposite of the NHS. Will we be permitted to sue the NHS if their information is not correct or suitable ? I should have known when I was first diagnosed, and at the food information session the diabetic nurse advised us on the quantities of alcohol we could drink, I thought I would have to give it up completely as it contained sugar , I m just dazed and confused [/QUOTE]
