[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 2158249, member: 41885"] Different people have different thresholds for damage. Some can eat far more carbs daily before any damage is done. Others can get damage at low levels of carb intake. Guidelines are just averages. I never ate a lot of carbs, ever. Not compared to average intakes quoted these days by medical people. But I did eat a lot of fruit, fruit juice (pure, unsweetened) so maybe I am more sensitive to fructose than others? I dieted for 35 years, at least, maybe longer, under 1000 cals a day often, so wasnt eating loads of sugary stuff either. One thing the 5 a day does is increase carb intake in the form of fruit, and veg like peas, sweetcorn, root veg. Some of us need only small amounts of carbs above our personal safe threshold to get type 2, and complications. [/QUOTE]
