[QUOTE="chalup, post: 1264157, member: 306126"] I have a South African doctor who actually trained under Tim Noakes. Small worls as I am in small town Canada. He is not allowed to recommend low carb as it goes against the official guidelines but he did tell me to go online and look up the glycemic index and carbohydrates. He certainly nudged me towards low carb without crossing the line that could get him in trouble. When I was rediagnosed this time I just said "back to atkins" and he agreed. They can approve your choice once you say you are doing it but cannot tell you to do it in the first place. It is all a stupid mind game and even the good doctors are caught in it as well. [/QUOTE]
