[QUOTE="smartlady, post: 469102, member: 77055"] [SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff4da6]I read the first sentence & felt some hope ~ "Diabetes mellitus is a chronic illness [SIZE=4]that requires continuing medical care and ongoing patient self-management[/SIZE] education and support to prevent acute [SIZE=4]complications and to reduce the risk of long-term complications." Isn't this a contradiction to what we are usually told by hcps? i.e. "Diabetes is a progressive disease" implying that we WILL all get complications eventually. Is this a sign that "they" are changing their stance? Perhaps taking notice that some diabetics ARE controlling it better, (like people on here) by changing their diet (however they do it, please don't let us get into another lchf fight)! I feel this is real progress Comments? Smartie xx[/SIZE] [/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
