[QUOTE="iHs, post: 839177, member: 8799"] Yes...I heard it and as usual got annoyed as most people are eating far too much carb every day and dont take any notice and just look if anything at the sugar content. Years ago, many type 1s did in fact eat less carb than what bolus/basal insulin allows?? DAFNE ring a bell? Twice daily insulins only allowed for a certain amount of carb to be eaten every day and that was weighed up against bodyweight. Im sure that if dieticians and DUK would remark on saying that people are eating too much carb instead of too much sugar, weightgain would not be the high issue that it is. For sure, the food producers need sorting out but until that happens, people need to eat a sensible diet with a level of food that maintains reasonable bg levels and also is able to keep bodyweight within a sensible range. Low carb with plenty of veg is far better than eating plate fulls of chips, pizzas and all the other 'tish' food that's on offer in the shops. [/QUOTE]
