[QUOTE="Diamattic, post: 1245324, member: 138639"] At this point i dont think he will personally ever switch to a pump. He has a system that works really well for him - hes locked in. So don't expect to see his opinion on pumps change much since he wont have real first hand experience with them - but that is understandable. It well correlated though - there have been numerous studies preformed that show the increased risk of complications with fluctuations in blood sugars through spikes and long term highs, LCHF is a documented method of reducing these fluctuations. What you are saying is the same as saying 'Smoking doesn't cause cancer - it just increases risk - who knows if they would have got that cancer anyway so why are we telling people to quit smoking now' LCHF will certainly prevent complications IF that person doesn't already have them, however even if they do it will certainly reduce their severity, and potentially allow for healing (i don't like using the word reversed because it implies back to normal and we all know when something heals its rarely perfect again), people should be told that they do have options to reduce risk, there are many and they get to decide. LCHF is just a popular one! [/QUOTE]
