I'm glad you found a diet that works for you, makes you feel healthier, and has improved you QoL.
But it's not a panacea, and it's certainly not a cure for type 1 diabetes.
- NotHereNotThere 6y agoHe never mentioned it being a cure to T1D..
- jadell 6y agoThe response is to an article about low carb diets sending diabetes patients into "remission". It's hard not to make the connection.
- NotHereNotThere 6y agoWell.. I don't actually think the article claims a 'cure' either. If I get cancer, have treatment for it and am now in remission, who would think these doctors 'cured' cancer? Everyone would understand _my specific instance_ of cancer is reduced to being not a concern anymore. Being in remission just means a greatly reduced or almost inexistent dependency on insulin. I'm not saying the conclusions of the article are correct either (low sample size, short period of time), but it's a far cry from claiming 'LCHF cures T1D'
