[QUOTE="neithskye, post: 1981254, member: 484290"] I had nine surgeries by age 21, and my opinion, as a minor undergoing necessary procedures, of the medical profession was benevolent; they did what was necessary and right for their patients. My recent diabetes diagnosis has been a massive shock to my system regarding the medical profession. If I had not done my own research I never would've heard about low carbs and high fat. The guide from my diabetes education course says I should eat a minimum of 150 grams of carbs a day! Investigating further I learned about big money in the business, actual formal diabetes associations and food guides giving out incorrect advice, and so forth. It's rather rattled me, that the places we [I]should[/I] be able to trust for accurate information are wrong. In short, you are not wrong. They are. For evidence that what I'm doing is right, and the professional info I was given is wrong, I need look no further than my lab results showing a huge increase in my health, including reducing my A1C from 11.8% to 6.1% in three months.
