I hold by this. If low Hba1c in and of itself were dqngerous, non-diabetics would be at risk in the same way as diabetics. If taking large dose of multiple medication is dangerous, it's likely to be more dangerous to those who indulge in it most. No-one has looked at low HbA1cs kept low by diet and/or exercise. I do know about Semmelweiss and how he was criticised for his belief that Puerperal fever was transmited on the hands of Doctors. I also realise that much of the prjudice against him was caused by his being Hungarian in Austria- Hungary,thus a member of the "Lower orders".  I also know how difficult it was for Doctor John Snow to get the authorities to admit that cholera was water borne.there are dozens of ex\mples of where the medical profession has dismissed new ideas, based on evidence,  because the person presenting that evidence was not one of their more highly regarded members. So what's changed there?Richard K. Bernstein is an MD and a Licensed practitioner in the USA. Why  is the establishment against his EVIDENCE? And WHY do so many people believe the 7 countries study on what constitutes a Healthy diet? Ancel Keys was not a nutritionist and he discarded at least 2/3 of the EVIDENCE he collected.  Evidence needs to be evaluated, corroborated, peer reviewed, understood. not just chosen at random. Try the technique of "Reductio ad absurdam" Hana PS I think that despite much of his stuff being important, Lustig is mistaken about Glucose being a healthy carb.</blockquote>
