Message: <blockquote data-quote="Oldvatr" data-source="post: 1762885" data-attributes="member: 196898">Yes I did respond in that thread as you point out, and I was at that time looking at the possibility that the manufacturers info leaflets may not have been properly reflecting the LC dieters needs and maybe needs updating.  I note that through the whole thread in question there is only ONE respondent who states they find high carbs causes gastric distress, but does not elaborate on it so we do not have any real idea of what diet they were following apart from that it is most likely an LC diet of sorts.  As I said in an earlier post in the current thread, the content of the LC diet in terms of fat intake, dairy intake, fibre content, along with certain meds can also influence this outcomeAnd yes I did make an anecdotal reference in that post, but I did not draw any conclusions based on that as evidenee, and was in fact trying to open up the discussion instead.  That whole thread was to explore the use of Metformin with LC diets, so it was appropriate to air anecdotal evidence connected with that topic,  The thread we are currently in is a general T2D thread and not so specific about Metformin. so unassigned references here are out of context and unclear, hence the confusion.Edit to add: [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER]  posted a link to an external site that was discussing the use of intermittent (5:2) fasting when used in conjunction with Metformin. To prevent derailment of this topic here, I have created its own thread since it is something I have not seen discussed on DCUK<a href="https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/metformin-and-fasting-diets.144056/" target="_blank">https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/metformin-and-fasting-diets.144056/</a></blockquote>
