[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1232913, member: 41816"] Wow. Your information is decades out of date. I have been happily eating fewer than 50 g carbs a day for years, and feeling better on it than I did in the previous decades of up to and over 100g of carbs. As a result I now have optimum cholesterol ratios, slow weight loss, better energy levels, reduced inflammation, better sleep, better metal clarity. The depression cleared up with sufficient Vitamin D. Nothing whatsoever to do with carb intake - except of course that I am now exceeding happy not to feel dreadful all the time due to excessive carb intake. If you are trying to push your T2 clients into eating so many carbs, then you are preventing many of them from feeling their best, and giving them the best control of their T2 diabetes. In my case, since I also have reactive hypoglycaemia, you would also be pushing me into daily hypos - since if I eat more than about 50g carbs a day, I risk hypos after eating. If you would like to understand very low carbing [B][I]properly[/I][/B] and ditch the nonsensical myths (such as the 130g/day needed for brain function), whilst providing a better service to your clients, I suggest reading the Voleck and Phinney book mentioned in my signature. They explain, excellently, how and why low carbing works, and works so well. Incidentally, I have no problems sticking to my very low carb regime. I love food, and eating low carb is both delicious and satisfying. I am never hungry, cook from scratch, eat masses of veg, some fruit, and have far better nutrition than people who fill themselves up with stodgy, starchy carbs. [/QUOTE]
